Zhangjiajie National Forest Park

Zhangjiajie National Forest Park - Morning: The guide and driver will meet the group in the Pullman Hotel lobby and transfer them to Zhangjiajie National Forest Park. The journey begins with a visit to Yaozi Village, which requires climbing over 5,000 steps as there are no cable cars or elevators to the top. Yaozi Village, first opened to tourists in the 1980s, was closed for nearly twelve years for environmental protection but reopened on September 26, 2003. After a four-hour tour of the village, the group will hike down to Golden Whip Stream.

Afternoon: Enjoy a leisurely walk along Gold Whip Stream, surrounded by unique rock formations. This area is renowned for its clear water and fresh air. Visitors may encounter monkeys, and while feeding them is acceptable, touching or scaring them is discouraged for safety. The hike in this valley lasts about two hours.

Zhangjiajie National Forest Park

Wulingyuan Scenic and Historic Interest Area of Zhangjiajie - Morning: After breakfast, take the Bailong Elevator to Yuanjiajie. The mountains here inspired Hallelujah Mountain in AVATAR. Visitors will also see the First Bridge under Heaven and Lover Peaks.

Afternoon: A green bus will take the group to Yangjiajie Scenic Area, also known as “Wulong Village,” named after bandits who hid there 70 years ago. This recently discovered area offers pristine beauty, adventure, and fewer crowds. The mountains resemble a natural “Great Wall.” Afterward, continue to Tianzi Mountain for a panoramic view of the Wuling Mountains. Visit Western Sea, Helong Park, and Viewing Terrace, then take the Tianzi Cablecar down.

The world’s highest see-through skywalk bridge, completed in October 2016, offers an incredible walking experience (3 hours).

Yellow Dragon Cave - This cave resembles an underground “magical palace,” featuring expansive caves, deep underground rivers, hanging waterfalls, and dense stone formations, each with its unique style (1.5 hours).

Baofeng Lake - Baofeng Lake is as pure as a crystal within the Baofeng Mountain Range. During a cruise, visitors can hear authentic songs from the Tujia minority, experiencing the harmony between humans and nature.
