Avatar Mountains Local guide

Zhangjiajie China, also known as the "Avatar Mountains," is a mystical world with floating pillars that resemble the beautiful scenes from the movie Avatar. Despite its remote location in the western part of China, it is a must-visit destination. However, navigating the area can be challenging due to confusing maps and the park's layout. This guide provides essential information on how to visit Zhangjiajie and make the most of your trip.⛰️ Must know information:🌟 1. The main entrances to Zhangjiajie National Forest Park are Zhangjiajie Forest Park and Wulingyuan.🌉 2. A 4-day entrance ticket costs 245 Yuan.🎫 3. Buses, cable cars, a monorail, and an elevator provide transportation within the park, but some incur additional fees.🚦 4. Hiking trails are well-marked but can be confusing, so planning a route and allowing four days to explore different sections is recommended.🧗♂️ 6. Buses stop running at a certain time, so plan your route to avoid getting stuck on a trail in the dark.🌚 Best views inside the park:📸 1. The 10-mile gallery is a beautiful trail that leads to the Three Sisters Peaks.🏔 2. Continue past the Three Sisters and hike up to Tianzi Mountain for stunning views.🌄 3. Explore the viewing platforms of Yunqing Rock, Arranging Battles Platform, and Imperial Writing Brush Peaks.🪨 4. Get off the bus at "One Dangerous Stop" and "Cock Pecking" for breathtaking views.🐓 5. Take the walkways from the Enchanting Terrace to Lucky Mountain for the best views of the park.🍀 6. The heavenly peak and natural bridge are must-do attractions for visitors.🌁 7. For a more leisurely activity, take a stroll along the 5km Golden Whip Stream, passing through valleys of sandstone pillars, offering a break from strenuous hiking.🪙 8. Alternatively, embark on a challenging hike up the Yellow Stone Village Mountain, navigating through forests inhabited by monkeys.🐵 #songkran2024 #mytravelhacks #cherryblossom2024 #historicallandmarks #familytrip #localguides #wecreate #china
