Though in reality, it was…Get up at the crack of dawn…Battle through tourist crowds at Bai Long Elevator 百龙天梯…Finally reaching the viewpoint, only to find that the "floating" mountains are hidden behind a thick blanket of fog, leaving you In despair So after having McDonald at the top, we decided to challenge ourselves by taking a hike down to the 10 Miles Gallery instead of the cable car. And boy, it was a tough 2-3 hours hike but the result was rewarding as we finally caught the view of the legendary mountains! #gohiking

Is there anyone who haven’t heard about Zhangjiajie Avatar mountains? I suppose not 😁 one the most famous and popular destinations in China. Our trip started in Changsha where we stayed for half a day. Then by train we departed to Zhangjiajie. Railway station is not very far away from the scenery area, but we waited for taxi for quite some time as arrived late in the evening. The mountains don’t need to be described too much. Amazing. It’s better to see once than hear a hundred times. So just go see it with your own eyes 😁 As expected, many people, but didn’t affect overall experience. Absolutely recommend to visit. P.S. If you go to Zhangjiajie, there’s one more famous destination - Fenghuang village, not far away(about 1 hour by train) and a great place to go 👍#2023travelwish #mytripvlog #awesomepic #bucketlistreboot #zhangjiajie

| One-Day Tour to Huangshi Village and Jinbian Stream to See Monkeys. Are you still only aware of going to crowded places like Tianzi Mountain and Bailong Elevator when visiting Zhangjiajie‼️ There is such an off-the-beaten-path one-day tour route where you can come to see monkeys in winter and stream trace to breathe in the oxygen in summer! The key is that you don't have to squeeze with other people We first took a bus to Huangshi Village As soon as we entered, we could see many wild monkeys along the way that were not afraid of people, just sitting there❌ But it is not recommended to get too close or to feed them, as it is easy to get scratched We chose to hike up the mountain and take the cable car down👇 On rainy days, the top of the mountain is all foggy and you can't see much, so it is recommended to go up the mountain on a sunny day / Climbing the whole way takes about 3 hours to reach the top💰 The cable car down the mountain costs 65 per person and takes just over a dozen minutes to arrive After coming down the mountain, we headed straight for Jinbian Stream This place is really the most stunning spot along the way / The footpath along the stream is so comfortable to walk‼️ It's also great to stream trace here in summer / The mountain scenery on both sides is also very spectacular, lush and pleasing to the eye There are very few tour groups that walk along Jinbian Stream, so it's also much quieter / The whole journey takes about 2 hours to walk However, be sure to pay attention to safety‼️ There are relatively more wild animals here / And you need to bring enough supplies as there are not many supply points and restrooms along the way The exit is directly at the south gate of the forest park👀 There are many food shops, and the minibus back to the landmark gate is also nearby

Wulingyuan Bailong Elevator | Don't want to queue for a long time, see if this can help you||It is said that the scenery of Bailong Elevator and the queuing time are both loved and hated, Peak season 1-2 hours is also possible, I have summarized a few points after coming back, hoping to help you reduce the queuing time. 🐉Bailong Elevator The vertical height difference is 335 meters, with an operating height of 326 meters, composed of three side-by-side sightseeing elevators, 🏆entered into the Guinness World Records with the honor of "Highest Outdoor Elevator". 🎭To ride or not to ride? 🎈Elevator to Yuanjiajie: 66 seconds (excluding queuing time) 🎈Climbing to Yuanjiajie: about 3 hours (depending on your physical strength) Holiday elevator queuing time: A baby said she queued for 1 hour, you can feel the frustration and unwillingness in her words. 🪄Preserve energy for later trips, after all, coming to Zhangjiajie, you would hope to see more scenery than climbing mountains, so you can only try to reduce the queuing time as much as possible. ⛷Time-saving methods: 🎭Off-peak travel This might be one of the benefits of off-peak travel, almost no queuing, standing next to the elevator glass to feel the thrill of rushing out of the mountains into the sky, this is only possible in the off-season. 🐔Start early: This might be a more ideal solution, Get up early, the early bird catches the worm~~ 🚴‍♀️Clear route: (East Gate) Sign gate to Bailong Elevator route: Wulingyuan opening time: 07:30 (check it yourself for off-peak/peak seasons) 👉Take a taxi to Wulingyuan sign gate (East Gate)--check tickets to enter 👉Take the eco-friendly bus--to the left at the entrance is the bus to Tianzi Mountain, to the right is the bus to Bailong Elevator--don't get on the wrong bus👈 👉Jinbian Stream station (do not get off)--Bailong Elevator station (get off)--go through security check--buy tickets--queue 🎪Buy tickets in advance: ▪️Buy tickets online, reduce the time spent queuing to buy tickets, go straight to the destination. ▪️There is also a VIP ticket, not very fond of this way of selling tickets, after all, opening three elevators at the same time could speed up the transportation, creating a VIP elevator squeezes tourists into the remaining two elevators. 🙅‍♀️Don't do unnecessary things: ✖️After getting off at Bailong Elevator station, do not take photos, do not take photos, go directly through the security check, do not go to the toilet (solve it in advance, there are toilets at the main gate) ✖️Before buying tickets, make it clear whether you are buying insurance or not, the default is to buy, to avoid unnecessary time for refunding insurance fees! 😉One of the benefits of off-peak travel is that it saves the trouble of queuing, but the scenery and weather may not be to everyone's taste. However, as long as you change your mindset, to observe the mountain colors and appreciate all beings, all aspects of the world are worth admiring. 🐉Bailong Elevator: 65 yuan / Half ticket: 33 / VIP:165&133 / Insurance: 10 (no difference between full and half tickets) 🕰Opening hours: 08:00-18:00 🕰Wulingyuan opening hours: 07:30-17:00 Wulingyuan

Coming to Zhangjiajie, of course, you have to visit Wulingyuan. Once you get there, it feels unreal. Is this a fairyland? Wulingyuan is known as a natural maze, a geological museum, a kingdom of forests, a garden of flowers, and a paradise for wild animals. In 1992, it was listed as a 'World Natural Heritage', in 2004, it was listed as the first batch of 'World Geological Parks', and in 2007, it was awarded the first batch of national AAAAA level tourist attractions. The scenery of Wulingyuan has not undergone any artificial carving, everywhere are stone pillars and peaks, cliffs, ancient trees, clouds and mists, flowing springs and waterfalls, rare birds and animals. Being in it is like being in a magical world and a naturally interesting landscape corridor. It has the reputation of 'Natural Maze' and 'The First Wonder Mountain in the World'. Wulingyuan is famous for its strange peaks, strange stones, secluded valleys, beautiful waters, and caves. There are 5,000 stone peaks in various shapes, standing in the deep gullies; 800 streams winding and twisting, running through the stone forest canyons. Whether you are enjoying the scenery in Huangshizhai, exploring the mystery in Jinbianxi, adventuring in Shentang Bay, picking up fun in the Ten-Mile Gallery, or watching clouds in the West Sea, or admiring the scenery in Sandao Gully, it is all intoxicating. Transportation: It is 50 kilometers from the city to Wulingyuan, about 55 minutes by car. The Ten-Mile Gallery, located in the Wulingyuan Scenic Area of Zhangjiajie, is the essence of the scenic area. On both sides of the valley that stretches for more than ten miles, there are strange and steep peaks and stone landscapes, and the beauty along the way is breathtaking!

One of a-must-visit location in Hunan province, Zhangjiajie. A place where I felt being covered with mountains, forests, trees and fresh air whenever I climbed inside Wulingyuan (for 2 days). Try having hot coffee at the peak of the mountain under cold weather, you will love the taste. The only reminder to all, make sure to prepare all the covers and raincoat before heading to ZJJ. Cheers! #mountainview #travelinspiration #travelwithgeo #travelphotography #chinatravel #landscapephotography #hunan #zhangjiajietravel #ThisIsChina

The Zhangjiajie in spring is a sea of flowers, brimming with the vitality of greenery, the subtle fragrance of plum blossoms, the delicate beauty of peach blossoms, and a kaleidoscope of colors that make it a perfect place for families, children, and couples. In the coming months, as the gears of time shift to spring, the poetic and splendid Wulingyuan is approaching at a leisurely pace. "You say spring is not late, and I have arrived at Wulingyuan." In the springtime Wulingyuan, the sunshine is warm and gentle, the mountain flowers are bright and unrestrained, the layered mountains are clad in new green, the babbling streams are lined with lush grass, and everywhere is filled with poetic imagery. 🌸A ten-mile spring breeze, a breathtaking gallery; a journey towards the sun, a journey of blooming. In the Ten-Mile Gallery of Zhangjiajie National Forest Park during spring, plum blossoms sway in the wind, with petals of pink or red adorning the branches, a subtle fragrance in the air, distant mountains like ink, and trains shuttling through, all inspiring longing. 🌸In a little while, the spring breeze will turn into a messenger, bringing cherry blossoms to report. Then, the pink and white petals will be like brocade and rosy clouds, fluttering with bees and butterflies over the lake, dancing gracefully, with every view brimming with vitality, and every snapshot a magnificent landscape. 💦When time meets the spring rain, every light touch is a painting in ink and wash, and the rapeseed flowers are the bold strokes in it. 🌼Strolling in the ecological square of the Huanglong Cave scenic area, the golden petals converge into a sea of flowers, as if a carpet has been laid over the fields, the golden yellow interwoven with the blue sky, bringing infinite romance and comfort. 🍃In the coming months, the gentleness of Wulingyuan in spring will melt on the branches, hide in the wind, and twine among the peaks and forests🌷 💐In the season when the mountain flowers are blooming, one must make a trip to Wulingyuan, invite a few good friends, and head for this rendezvous with the mountains and rivers, embrace nature among the peaks and forests, meet beauty in the sea of flowers, and await the full bloom of spring to meet you.

Beautiful text surrounded by clouds and mist. The fog locks the mountain and the mountain locks the fog, the sky connects with the water tail and the water connects with the sky. The clouds and mist are as beautiful as a painting, and the mountains and rivers are proud and bold. The clouds and mist are swirling above the valley, the green trees in the valley are lush, and the ancient trees reach the sky. Half of the city is cloudy and half is clear, how much is hazy and how much is clear. Where does the cloud and mist end, it enters the heart in strands. The green mountains and rivers are accompanied by a thin mist around the mountains. The blue waves are leisurely, and the boat in the river is leisurely. The mist is hazy and everything is covered, the fairy air is floating, life does not have to be too clear, isn't it a kind of beauty in the clouds and mist. The light gauze-like mist makes everything in the world look agile and beautiful. Looking at the flowers in the mist, what you appreciate is the hazy beauty. Walking through the mist, as if in the fairyland of Penglai, what you experience is the agile beauty. The clouds and mist fill the canyon, like silk, like strands, curling and stretching, like a dream, like a poem, like a painting, the mist is colorful because of the canyon, and the canyon is hazy because of the mist. In the distance, the mountains stand tall, the mountains are connected, the green is steep, and the clouds and mist are swirling.
