Zhangjiajie Grand Canyon

Travelers who are preparing to go to Zhangjiajie, please take 5 minutes to read this guide on how to travel independently in Zhangjiajie, and how to spend 5 days and 4 nights there, for reference. Must-visit attractions in Zhangjiajie: Forest Park, Tianmen Mountain, Zhangjiajie Grand Canyon, Zhangjiajie Glass Bridge, Phoenix Ancient City! ~~~Without further ado, let me share my itinerary for 5 days and 4 nights in Zhangjiajie! Here is my detailed itinerary for 5 days and 4 nights in Zhangjiajie: Day 1: Arrive in Zhangjiajie—Check into the hotel (it's quite late, so stay near the train station) Day 2: 5A-level scenic spot Tianmen Mountain National Forest Park—Glass plank road—Tianmen Cave—Night view of Phoenix Ancient City Day 3: Phoenix Ancient City—Morong Miao Village—Furong Town—Zhangjiajie Day 4: Wulingyuan 5A-level scenic spot—Yuanjiajie—Mihun Terrace—Qiankun Column—Yangjiajie—Stay in Wulingyuan Day 5: Ten-mile Gallery—Golden Whip Stream—Tusi City To sum up this trip to Zhangjiajie, I had a lot of fun, the attractions are very rich, including the fairyland of Zhangjiajie and the cultural experience of Phoenix Ancient City. 🚉【About Transportation】 Zhangjiajie now has high-speed rail service. Those with better economic conditions can choose to fly. Those who want to save money or are relatively close can choose to take the train or bus. I chose to take the train from Guangdong. 🏨【About Accommodation】 The accommodation this time was very special. I stayed in the scenic area on the first night and saw a very beautiful sunrise. The second night I stayed in a guesthouse in Zhangjiajie city. On the third night, I stayed in Phoenix and saw the romantic night view of Phoenix Ancient City. It felt very special. 🖼【About Food】 People in Hunan love spicy food. Both Zhangjiajie and Phoenix are quite humid. If you don't eat spicy food, be sure to tell the restaurant. When you go to Zhangjiajie, you must try the three-pot dish and rice wine. In Phoenix, you must try the blood duck. The taste is very good, but be sure to choose a more authentic restaurant. There are also some snacks like Tujia bacon and sausage, Golden Whip Stream, and hairy chestnuts that are delicious. 【How to save money in Zhangjiajie】 1. Don't go to places you shouldn't go to, such as not going to restaurants where locals don't often go. The prices will be much cheaper and the food will be delicious. 2. Don't join a tour group at the departure place. For example, if I depart from Guangdong, I won't join a tour group in Guangdong, because Guangdong travel agencies will transfer to local agencies for reception. There is an extra link here, and the price will definitely be higher. 3. Book the hotel online in advance, it will be much cheaper. 4. Don't go to the hotels recommended by the touts or touting aunties at the airport or train station exits. That's a one-way street to being ripped off.

Walking through the towering sandstone pillars, you'll feel like you've stepped into a fantastical world. Zhangjiajie's unique charm lies in its otherworldly scenery, a perfect blend of nature's wonders and cinematic inspiration. Extend your stay and immerse yourself in the magic that captivated the creators of Avatar. 🌄🚡

The natural scenery of Zhangjiajie is very charming. In addition to visiting Tianmen Mountain and the Forest Park when traveling to Zhangjiajie, you definitely should not miss the Zhangjiajie Grand Canyon. Even the locals say it's worth it ~ Although the A-line of the Grand Canyon is now a free route, the scenery along the way is really amazing~ To get to the Grand Canyon from Zhangjiajie city, you can choose to take a direct bus to the Grand Canyon at the bus station, which costs 22 yuan per person and takes about an hour and a half to reach the Grand Canyon Tourist Service Center. There are free buses here that go directly to the top of the mountain. Starting from the top of the mountain, the path is all stairs leading into the canyon. The first scenic spot that catches your eye is the 'One-Line-Sky', where the natural scenery is very beautiful, and you can see the contrasting light and dark mountain landscapes~ The descent to the bottom of the canyon is all stairs, and as you walk, you may start to feel a bit weak in the legs. However, the scenery on the opposite mountain is really beautiful, and even I, who am afraid of heights, have overcome it to enjoy the view! It takes about ten minutes to walk down the stairs, and if you want to enjoy the thrill of speed, you can also take the slide. The water of Rainbow Lake is really very blue, and it was my first time seeing such blue water, I couldn't help but scream!! The lake water, the boats, and the mountain waterfalls cascading down, it's like a landscape painting on paper coming to life right before your eyes. The beauty is visible to the naked eye, and the camera can't fully capture it! Taking photos by the lake is very photogenic, and the perfect angle is right in front of the waterfall, with the waterfall, lake water, and the passing boats intertwined together, it's really very artistic Continuing forward, deeper into the canyon, the landscape along the way is beautiful, with sheer rock faces. Walking on the road, you can clearly hear the crisp sound of running water, the chirping of birds, and the rustling sound of the wind blowing through your hair. Breathing in the fresh air and looking at the natural beauty is really enjoyable~ The path in the canyon is very gentle. Being in the canyon and strolling along the stream, you feel the charm of nature. The long and narrow canyon has different scenery on both sides. Walking in different places gives you different feelings. The most surprising thing for me was encountering a wooden boat in the lake. The boat was moored in the water, filled with water inside, and the sunlight reflected off the water's surface, making it shimmer. The wooden boat gently swayed in the water, accompanied by the shadows of trees and the reflection of the mountains, which was especially poetic~ We left around four o'clock in the afternoon, and you can reach the shore by taking the free boat on Shenquan Lake. The boat moves slowly on the lake, the sunlight glitters on the emerald water, the mountains on both sides are lush and steep, warm patches of light fall on your hands, and in the process of enjoying with closed eyes, the moment you reach the shore, there is a sense of destiny like 'the light boat has already passed through thousands of mountains' Touring the canyon is both comfortable and pleasant, purely enjoying the scenery of the canyon, and an immersive experience of outdoor activities. The valley echoes, returning to nature, searching for that peace in your heart. Outdoor travel + a relaxed travel experience, very suitable for someone like me who is an INFP. I really love the scenery of Zhangjiajie Grand Canyon A-line
