Shili Gallery, or "Ten-Mile Natural Art Gallery," is a stunning valley in Zhangjiajie Wulingyuan Scenic Area where nature has sculpted a breathtaking open-air exhibition. This 5-kilometer (3-mile) corridor winds between towering karst peaks resembling giant sculptures, with poetic formations like "Three Sisters Peaks", "Medicine Collector", and the iconic "Old Man Greeting Guests"—each telling its own legendary tale. Visitors can explore via an eco-friendly electric tram or leisurely walk along wooden paths, surrounded by lush forests and the sound of mountain streams. The morning mist often drapes the peaks like silk, creating a dreamy ambiance that changes with every turn.
