Zhangjiajie is located in the northwest of Hunan, in the hinterland of the Wuling Mountains. Zhangjiajie City, built and prospered by tourism, has scenery that amazes the world.

In everyone's mind, Zhangjiajie is actually "Zhangjiajie Wulingyuan Park", which is mainly composed of four major scenic spots: Zhangjiajie National Forest Park, Tianzishan Nature Reserve, Suoxiyu Nature Reserve, and Yangjiajie. There are many scenic spots among them, which are very worth visiting for tourists.

Common questions for everyone when traveling to Zhangjiajie for the first time are as follows:

1. What are the attractions worth seeing in Zhangjiajie?

2. Generally speaking, it is the most appropriate to spend a few days in Zhangjiajie. When is the best period to travel?

3. Driving on a road trip, how to arrange the car? It is convenient and safe to put it there. Do you take a plane and train to pick up the station?

4. What are the discounts for the elderly, children, students and relevant certificates?

1. Three must-see attractions in Zhangjiajie

1. Zhangjiajie Forest Park

Zhangjiajie National Forest Park is a core attraction that must be visited when visiting Zhangjiajie. The natural scenery is amazing by the peaks, the valleys show the tranquility, and the forests show the beauty. There are more than 3000 strange peaks between them, which are like humans and beasts, weapons and objects. They are lifelike and spectacular. They are known as "Three Thousand Strange Peaks and Eight Hundred Beautiful Waters". Tickets are 228 yuan/person. From March to April 2020, buy one get one free (Zhangjiajie Forest Park, Yuanjiajie Yangjiajie Tianzi Mountain Jinbianxi Shili Gallery) takes 2 days to play. Zhangjiajie is located in Wulingyuan District, which everyone sees and knows about in TV albums.

2Zhangjiajie Grand Canyon

The Zhangjiajie Grand Canyon Scenic Area is located in Cili County, Zhangjiajie City. The canyon has lush vegetation and fresh air. Flying waterfalls, streams and springs can be seen everywhere, just like a natural oxygen bar. In addition to appreciating the natural scenery, the most worth visiting in the scenic area is Yuntiandu, the world's tallest and longest glass bridge. Standing on the bridge, you can have a panoramic view of the valley bottom 400 meters below your feet, which will definitely challenge your heart. Zhangjiajie Grand Canyon Glass Bridge Scenic Area is 219 yuan/piece. It takes 0.5 to 1 day for each person from March to April 2020. It is located in Cili County

3. Tianmen Mountain National Forest Park

Tianmen Mountain Scenic Area, which contains the longest cableway in Asia, the wonders of the world's highways, the glass plank road Ghost Valley plank road, etc. The tour time is for most of a day, and the ticket is 238 yuan, including the round-trip cableway; from March to April this year, the ticket is 123 yuan/person. It takes most of a day to visit. It is located in Yongding District, Zhangjiajie City


Friends who have enough time can visit Fenghuang Ancient City, which is 230 kilometers away from Zhangjiajie. The main attraction is to watch the night view, and then the scenery of the ancient city during the day. Located in Xiangxi Autonomous Prefecture. Admission to Jiujing in the ancient city is 148 yuan (you can't buy tickets if you don't go to Jiujing).

When summer comes, you can go and see the world's number one drift: Mengdong River rafting ticket is 180 yuan

The three-hour floating on a boat is very exciting for the rafting with the largest drop in China. There is a song in the hometown of singer Song Zuying,"There is a Mengdong River in my hometown."

2. Generally speaking, it is the most appropriate to spend a few days in Zhangjiajie. When is the best period to travel?

Traveling to Zhangjiajie is generally recommended for 4 to 5 days

The best tourist periods in Zhangjiajie are April and October every year. In April, in Zhangjiajie, the grassland flies, and you can experience the surprise of entering the Peach Blossom Land. In October, Zhangjiajie is full of forests, and it is the season when fruits are ripe. Zhangjiajie has a beautiful scenery of Nanshan Mountain, and the tourism experience is very good. If it is holidays and summer student holidays, not only will the Zhangjiajie Scenic Area have many people and long queues, but various consumption will also increase, and the experience will be lower

The following editor recommends a four-day trip to Zhangjiajie Forest Park to everyone, hoping to help friends.

Self-driving friends: Nowadays, many people choose to drive themselves when visiting Zhangjiajie. I suggest you park your car in Wulingyuan or the urban area. Then consider whether you are traveling with a group or making your own guide, and then travel by yourself.

Train friends: Just buy Zhangjiajie Railway Station directly, and all local participants will pick up the station for free;

Friends by plane: Just buy Zhangjiajie Lotus Airport directly. All local participants will pick up the station for free;
