    Highlights: Tianmenshan National Forest Park is named after the natural wonder "Tianmen Cave". When visiting the Attraction, you must take a cable car about 7,500 meters long. You can overlook the Tongtian Avenue and the beautiful scenery of the mountains hovering between the cliffs below. The brave ones can also walk on the glass plank road hanging on the wall and experience the excitement of walking in the air.Tianmenshan National Forest Park is close to Zhangjiajie city. The Tianmen Cave in the mountain is a natural cave that penetrates the mountain. Local people believe that it can lead directly to heaven. For ordinary tourists, Tianmen Cave is not open all year round. In winter every year, due to snow and ice on the road, Tianmen Cave and Tongtian Avenue (a winding mountain road with 99 bends) leading to Tianmen Cave will be closed.The lower station of the Attraction's cableway is located in Guanliping, Yongding District, and the upper station is at the top of Tianmen Mountain. In 2020, the Attraction opened an express line, with the lower station near the gate of Tianmen Mountain and the upper station near the Tianmen Cave parking lot.Tianmenshan National Forest Park is full of towering ancient trees and entwined vines. The Attraction is divided into several main areas, including Tianmen Cave, the middle line, the east line and the west Attraction. Visitors can choose different routes and areas to play according to their preferences and physical strength.The core attraction of the middle line is the Tianmen Mountain Temple and the "Child-Seeking Cave" near the temple. According to folklore, the Goddess of Complimentary appeared here, and if you make a sincere wish, you will get children. The highlight of the west line is a 60-meter-long "glass plank road" built on a cliff. The road under your feet is made of transparent glass. When you walk on it, you can see the abyss under your feet. While you are terrified, you can also feel the joy of walking in the air. Currently, the east line and Panlong Cliff have also opened up glass plank roads about 60 meters long.You can't stay in the Attraction, so you can only visit it in one day. There is a "Cherry Bay Restaurant" near Tianmenshan Temple, which provides snacks and fast food.Near the lower station of the Tianmen Mountain Cableway, there is a shuttle bus that takes you to the Canyon Grand Theater, where you can watch the live performance and the magical musical "Tianmen Fox Fairy". The story is adapted from the myth "Liu Hai Cuts Wood", and tells a touching love story between a man and a fox. Live music, lighting, and fascinating scenes such as the oversized moon, the transformation of the fox spirit, the flying snow, and the high-altitude flying bridge fully display this legendary love.

    "Sister Xiaojin explained very well, especially when the poem was explained, the child said that they were better than their Chinese teacher. Not only the explanation of the Yellow Crane Tower, but also the introduction of Wuchang/Hankou/Hanyang and the Yangtze River Bridge, very professional! It also reminded us to avoid peaks earlier. Also recommend us the surrounding food, great"

The main attractions in the park are Yuanjiajie, Tianzi Peak, Golden Whip Stream and Yellow Stone Village. The mountains have peculiar shapes, often surrounded by fog and mist giving visitors a view similar to the drawings of a traditional chinese painting.

    "Laojunshan Ancient No. "View Room Mountain", there are two cableways on level 1, but the instructions for the two cableways to the Yunjing Cableway and Zhongling Cableway under the mountain and the parking lot are not obvious and unclear. For Shanglaojun Mountain, there is no clear public notice and consumption for tourists through the 1st-level cableway, 2nd-level cableway, slide, elevator. What scenic spots are distributed in Laojun Mountain Scenic Area, what scenic spots are on the mountain, what scenic spots are under the mountain, etc. The guidelines are not obvious, and there are no specific guidelines for playing. There are few staff in Laojun Mountain Scenic Area, and there are tourists fighting when queuing up on the 2nd level cableway. There are three golden domes in the Laojun Mountain Jinding Group: Liangbaotai, Jindian, and Yuhuangding, but no staff are seen on the Jinding Group. Liangbaotai has the most people queuing up, and often someone jumps in the queue is disgusting. The most disgusting thing is that someone retrogrades, not queuing up the mountain road to the top, and actually climbing up the mountain road to the mountain, causing people to block the mountain. Because the mountain road up and down the mountain can only pass by one person, but also grasp the iron chain on both sides to climb up or down, retrograde is very dangerous."

    "Both attractions are very expensive... The cable car has to buy another ticket (105 yuan), and it takes 2 hours to walk in the cable car to get to a pillar of incense. There is an escalator down the mountain, and it takes more than 3 hours to walk to the escalator..."

    Highlights: Enshi Grand Canyon National 5A Scenic Area and National Geopark is a world-renowned "natural museum" of composite karst landforms with "ground fissures, cenotes and rock pillars" coexisting at the same time. Its ecological environment is unique, and its natural scenery is primitive and simple, with a gallery of ten thousand meters of cliffs, a thousand-foot waterfall, hundreds of unique peaks, and ten miles of deep ravines. Yunlong Ground Fissure is called "the beautiful scar of the earth"; "One Incense Stick" was rated as one of the 40 famous scenic spots in China by foreign media.Yunlong ground seamYunlong Ground Fissure Scenic Area covers an area of ​​11.3 square kilometers and has an altitude of 600-800 meters. The main landforms in the scenic area include ground fissures, waterfalls, deep pools, karst caves, underground rivers, pictographic stones, and geological profiles. Yunlong Ground Fissure is zigzag-shaped in plane, extending nearly north-south, with a total length of 3.6 kilometers, an average depth of 75 meters, and an average width of 15 meters. The river valley is deep and the bank is steep. It is known as the "ten-mile and hundred-foot cliff". It is the main sightseeing area of ​​Yunlong Ground Fissure Scenic Area. The two walls of Yunlong Ground Fissure are steep and nearly parallel, and the width is basically the same from top to bottom. The cross section is "U"-shaped, which is extremely rare and unique.A stick of incenseKarst stone pillars. A stick of incense is a landmark of the Enshi Grand Canyon and a very rare landscape among similar karst landforms. A stick of incense is 150 meters high, with a diameter of 6 meters at the bottom and a minimum diameter of only 4 meters. Its rock type is Triassic limestone. Because the strata here are horizontal, and the rock has a high compressive strength (800 kg/cm3), and there is no tilt or slip, it cannot be moved by the wind or knocked down by the rain. It has stood proudly among the peaks for tens of millions of years, guarding this mysterious land, which is rare.Cliff plank roadThe Cliff Plank Road, also known as Buyuntian Plank Road and Cliff Corridor, was built in August 2006 and took 1 year and 8 months to complete. The plank road is located on the mountainside of the vertical cliff on the east side of the mountain, with an altitude of about 1,700 meters, a total length of 488 meters, a height difference of 300 meters, and 118 stone steps. It is integrated with the mountain cliffs. Because the plank road is built on the cliff, some people call it the Cliff Corridor, or the "Cliff Plank Road". The project is a combination of the manufacturing technology of the ancient Bashu plank road with modern reinforced concrete building materials and advanced construction technology. It is scientific, safe, and magnificent. Welcome SongThe Welcoming Pine, which is estimated to be nearly a thousand years old, grows proudly on the cliff, as if opening its arms to welcome tourists from all over the world.
