It is named after Tianmen Cave, which runs through the north and south. The gate is 131.5 meters high, 57 meters wide and 60 meters deep. It is located in the sky. Tianmen Mountain not only has magnificent natural scenery, but also embodies the crystallization of human wisdom: the 99-bend winding mountain road surrounding the mountain, the 999-step ladder in front of the Tianmen Gate Gate, and the escalator that raises the height of 340 meters in the mountain tunnel. What is even more impressive is the glass plank road and Ghost Valley plank road on the edge of the cliff on the top of the mountain.
[Tongtian Avenue] winding and winding upwards, it is named because it leads to Tianmen Cave, which is known as the Tongtian Gate.

The vegetation in the canyon is lush, the air is fresh, cool and comfortable, and the stream of the Zhangjiajie Grand Canyon is filled with a layer of mist, which is like coming to a paradise, which makes people feel troubled.
[Stairway plank road] The slope of the tour we are walking now is very large. The plank road is very narrow and extends downward in turn, like a ladder that takes us to a charming fairyland. We call it the ladder plank road.
