1Zhangjiajie Wulingyuan Scenic Area
Wulingyuan Scenic Area of Zhangjiajie is a UNESCO World‑Natural‑Heritage Site and the prototype of floating mountains from the movie Avatar. After hundreds‑of‑millions‑year‑long crustal movement, thousands of quartz‑sandstone peaks rise steeply above deep valleys with thick green woods. When mist drifts around hilltops, peculiar peaks flicker amid clouds just like a fairy‑tale wonderland. Ten‑Mile Gallery lies in the central canyon of Wulingyuan, featuring well‑known rock formations such as the Herbalist Elder and Three‑Sisters Peaks. Hiking along canyon footpaths is our default plan for this itinerary. You can walk slowly and closely admire unique stone pillars and original forests on both sides. If you would like to avoid lengthy walking and enjoy sightseeing with less fatigue, you may choose the officially‑run Ten‑Mile Gallery Sightseeing Train. This tram is totally optional, and guests need to pay additional fees if they decide to take it.
