When you mention Zhangjiajie, what do you think of?

Is it General He Long? Is it the floating "Hallelujah Mountain" in the movie "Avatar"? Is it the ancient and primitive Tujia Maogus dance? Is it Jinbianxi where "Journey to the West" is filmed? Or is it the ninety-nine turns on Tianmen Mountain Tongtian Avenue?

Ten thousand people have ten thousand Zhangjiajie in the eyes of ten thousand people.

Zhangjiajie, Hunan's tourist business card, 380 million years of vicissitudes, nature's magical craftsmanship, strange landforms, and unique ethnic customs, has won praise from all over the world. The National Day holiday is approaching, so why not walk into Zhangjiajie with Xiaoyu and start a colorful vacation!

Since its opening for more than two months, it has attracted many tourists to come here to check in for experience.

In Dayong Ancient Street, there are many delicious snacks, as well as intangible cultural heritage and handicraft workshops such as Tujia brocade, Hunan embroidery, Nuo opera masks, sugar painting, making glutinous rice cakes, and pottery workshops. You can experience the charm of intangible cultural heritage up close.

But Hunan snacks are a bit spicy!

If you dare to go and experience it, there will be constant surprises waiting for you! The Storm Hall is the most popular, allowing you to experience the scene when the storm comes. But you must remember to wear a raincoat when entering! It is best to take off your shoes and enter the market, because your shoes will definitely get wet, and those who have experienced it will praise it and be exciting.

In the Sea of Lovers, the "Water Flying" stunt show is the most popular, with two "Water Flying" performances every day.

At the Rotten Apple Parent-Child Park, you can take your children to experience dozens of parent-child amusement projects such as bumper cars, jungle adventure, naughty castle, carousels, mini flying cars, and small pendulum, so that the whole family can have fun together.

The viewing venue of Shanghe Picture during the Qingming Festival also attracted many tourists. The dynamic picture scroll on the nearly 200-square-meter curtain slowly unfolds. Nearly a thousand characters of different shapes vividly represent the busy water transport, noisy markets, peaceful houses and the alternation of day and night through the combination of dynamic environments, showing the urban customs of the prosperous Song Dynasty.

The scenic spot also has interactive programs such as "Tusi Recruiting a Husband","Street Walking","Jianghu Flash Show" and "Hand-waving Bonfire Carnival" every day.

"Tusi Recruiting a Son-in-Law" is a highly interactive performance. As long as it is favored by a rich Tusi with red lips and white teeth, a beautiful country and unparalleled Tusi, every man present may become a lucky one. When the Tusi Qianjin threw out red hydrangea, it triggered a crazy grab by men. A handsome young man from Shanxi was lucky enough to win the hydrangea, dressed in red and wearing flowers on the spot, and went to the building to worship. The scene was filled with laughter and blessings.

The most attractive and exciting thing is the large-scale song and dance "Zhangjiajie Eternal Love".

"Zhangjiajie Eternal Love" condenses Zhangjiajie's history, culture and legends for hundreds of millions of years, and is divided into chapters such as "The Canghai Mulberry Field","Wuling Wonderland","The Legend of Tianzi Mountain","Past Events in a Small Town","Masang Tree" and "Love in Xiangxi".

In the process,"travel through" thousands of years to experience the original beauty, mysterious beauty, and humanistic beauty of ancient Zhangjiajie and contemporary Zhangjiajie. Thunderous applause and cheers sounded from time to time at the scene.

Stay overnight at Xibu Street Inn.

Day 2: All day in Zhangjiajie National Forest Park (Forest Park Ticket Station-Jinbianxi-Shuirao Simen-Bailong Tianti-Yuanjiajie-Yangjiajie)

Zhangjiajie National Forest Park is my country's first national forest park, with more than 3000 strange peaks. The mountains here are different from other places. They are composed of huge stone pillars, standing tall like knives and axes. They are like humans, animals, weapons and objects. They are lifelike and spectacular. They are independent of each other, but they are also interdependent.

We enter the core scenic spot from the Forest Park Luogu Tower Ticket Station.

Jinbian River is about 7.5 kilometers long. In 1986, director Yang Jie filmed "Journey to the West" in Jinbianxi, Zhangjiajie. The entire chapter of "Three Beats on the Bone Bones" was filmed in Jinbianxi. Jinbianxi is a natural oxygen bar. It is a wonderful place to cleanse the heart and lungs. There are 110,000 negative ions in the air per cubic meter. Taking a few deep breaths of fresh air will refresh the heart and the trouble will disappear immediately.

There are tall mountains on both sides of the Jinbian River, one next to the other, standing vertically. The narrowest part is less than 100 meters. Walking along the Jinbian River is like swimming in a painting. The main scenery along the way include "Guanyin Sending Her Child","Splitting Mountains to Save Her Mother","Dinghai Divine Needle","Nantian Pillar","Golden Turtle Exploring the Sea", etc.

At the other end of the Jinbian River, the water surrounds the four gates. You can walk 1.2 kilometers from Shuihuan Simen to the Bailong Ladder, or take an environmentally friendly vehicle to the Bailong Ladder. The Bailong Ladder is known as the ladder on the edge of the cliff. It has a vertical height difference of 335 meters and a running height of 326 meters. It consists of a 154-meter shaft in the mountain and a 172-meter steel structure derrick attached to the mountain. It uses three double-layer fully exposed sightseeing elevators. Running side by side and separated, it is magnificent and has a flying feeling. It only takes 66 seconds to safely reach Yuanjiajie on the mountain.

Yuan Jiajie, the location of the movie "Avatar" and "Hallelujah Mountains"(also known as the Qiankun Pillar). In the Yuan family boundary, there is a scene step by step. Hundreds of stone peaks stand quietly in the canyon, like a gathering of sages and have a myriad of shapes. In addition to seeing the Hallelujah Mountains, you can also watch the world's first bridge, the magic platform, the divine turtle asking questions, the sky countryside, the back garden, the five women's birthday celebration and many other representative famous attractions.

Yangjiajie is majestic, dangerous, delicate and quiet, with crisscross ravines, clear streams, dense vegetation, and a forest coverage rate of as high as 95%. It has a rare spectacle of peak and wall groups in the world, with a highest altitude of 1130 meters.

The main attractions include Wulong Village, Golden Rooster Announces Dawn, Bangchui Peak, Climb to the Sky, Sky Corridor, Longquan Flying Waterfall, Cliff Vine King, White Crane Gathering, etc. During this period, the terrain of Wulong Village is steep, with broken walls and deep cliffs on all sides, and the scenery is particularly beautiful. To enter Wulong Village, you have to pass through four dangerous passes, either drilling holes, walking along cliffs, or walking sideways from cliff rock roads. It is extremely thrilling and exciting.

It is called the king of the peaks and forests. The main attractions include Tianzi Pavilion, Yubi Peak, Fairy Sanhua, Xihai, Helong Park, etc.

Tianzi Mountain has four wonders: peak forests, sea of clouds, sunrise, and winter snow. The four seasons of spring, summer, autumn and winter are different, and the four seasons of morning, dusk, noon and night are different. I like the peaks and forests of Tianzi Mountain most after the rain. They are shrouded in smoke and smoke, or cover the sky, or graceful, as still as gauze, but when they move, snow surges in the sky. They are like dreams and sometimes disappear, giving people a feeling of being outside the world.

You can take the cableway down the mountain from Tianzishan Cableway Station and transfer to a sightseeing bus to go to Shili Gallery.

Shili Gallery, with a total length of 5 kilometers, can be reached on foot or by sightseeing train. The trees on both sides of the canyon are verdant and wild flowers are fragrant; the strange peaks and rocks are in various shapes, like a huge picture of mountains and rivers, hanging side by side on the Qianren cliffs, allowing the beautiful natural wonders to be integrated into the ink paintings of the immortal master painters.
