Unbelievable sights: Walking in Zhangjiajie, The First National Forest Park in China

Zhangjiajie is a city, region, and national park.
It is located in Central China, about 1,000 kilometers (600 miles) from Hong Kong.
Are you impressed by the Hallelujah Mountains in Avatar? The real ones are in Zhangjiajie. There are 243 peaks and more than 3,000 pinnacles and spires in the national park. Scenes in Avatar come to mind when the peaks are caught in the right light or when the early morning mountain mist rolls in around them.
In 1982, Zhangjiajie National Forest Park became China's first national forest park.
-------------------⭐⭐

Zhangjiajie National Forest Park

Get up close and personal with the mountains from Avatar. Don't just be impressed by videos and pictures. Travel to see the real ones - they are only a day's journey from you.
Escape from your busy routine to see the most beautiful scenery and rejuvenate your mind and body.
Enjoy the adventure of hiking in Zhangjiajie Grand Canyon in dense forests and by stunning waterfalls and limpid streams.
-------------------⭐⭐
Tianmen Mountain or Heaven's Gate Mountain:
-------------------⭐⭐
The 999 steps to Heaven's Door, the 70-degree inclines above deep valleys on the longest cable car ride... your mind may be flooded with imaginings reading about these, let alone the spectacular valley views and thrilling cliff path skywalks.
Tianmen Mountain, by Zhangjiajie city, in central China's Hunan Province, has been called "one of the most beautiful mountains in the world" by many travelers who have been there.
The stunning views including 'Heaven's Door' and the 99 Bends, vertical cliffs, the thrilling cliff-hanging walkway and glass skywalk, and the world's longest cable car ride, make it unquestionably one of the best mountains to visit in China. Come, climb the 'Stairway to Heaven'!
-------------------⭐⭐
The World's Longest Cable Car Ride up to the Mountain Top
-------------------⭐⭐
The mountain is best reached by cable car. The aerial tramway ride is the longest in the world, taking about 30 minutes for over 7 kilometers.
The last part of the cable way is very steep, going up at 37 degrees over sheer cliffs to one of the mountain peaks.
The cable car starts close to the bus station and railway station. It is often very busy, and waiting in line is normal. The cable car starts at 7:30 in summer and 8:00 in winter.
Our guide will suggest our customers to arrive there early (half an hour or more before it officially opens) to avoid a long wait. Otherwise you may need to queue for 2 hours or even more amongst noisy, chaotic Chinese tour groups.
-------------------⭐⭐
The Cliff-Hanging Walkway
-------------------⭐⭐
The walkway was built along the edges of this mountain's summits, clinging to the vertical cliffs. The walkway is about 1.6 kilometers long, about 1,400 meters high.
The cliffside loop takes about 1½ hours. At the end of the walkway, there is a hanging bridge linking two peaks.
It is always busy and crowded along the walkway. You may find you need to fight for a place to take photos. Avoiding the crowds is essential for you to enjoy the highlights and take good photos. Your experienced guide knows how to help you get the best out of the experience.
