Zhangjiajie

Prepare to enter a world that feels as though it belongs in a different dimension. Zhangjiajie, located in the northwestern part of Hunan Province, is the inspiration behind the floating Hallelujah Mountains in the movie Avatar. The crown jewel of this destination is the Zhangjiajie National Forest Park, a UNESCO Global Geopark famous for its thousands of towering sandstone quartz pillars that pierce through the clouds. Our curated Zhangjiajie travel itineraries invite you to ride the Bailong Elevator, the world’s tallest outdoor lift, for a breathtaking ascent into the heart of the Yuanjiajie scenic area, where the most iconic “Avatar” peaks reside.

For those seeking an adrenaline rush, a walk across the Zhangjiajie Grand Canyon Glass Bridge—one of the world’s longest and highest glass-bottomed bridges—offers a heart-pounding view of the lush valley floor hundreds of meters below. Experience the mystical beauty of Tianmen Mountain, reached by one of the world’s longest cable car rides, where you can walk the narrow cliffside “Skywalks” and witness the natural wonder of Heaven’s Door, a massive water-eroded cave that pierces the mountain’s summit. Whether you are cruising the emerald waters of Baofeng Lake, exploring the stalactites of the Yellow Dragon Cave, or witnessing the spectacular Tianmen Fox Fairy outdoor musical, Zhangjiajie provides a surreal and soul-stirring journey into China’s most dramatic natural wilderness.
