Zhangjiajie is one of the famous tourist cities, among which the mountain in Zhangjiajie is the most famous. It is said that "Jiuzhaigou Valley Scenic and Historic Interest Area looks at the water and Zhangjiajie looks at the mountain". Today, we will talk about the beautiful scenery of Tianmen Mountain in Zhangjiajie. There are many scenic spots, first of all, "Tianmen Wonder", "Tianmen Mountain Cableway", "Tianmen Mountain Highway", "Mountain Ladder", "glass walkway", "Hanging Garden", "Tianmen Mountain Temple", "Ghost Valley Cave", and "Ghost Valley Plank Path".

Tianmen Wonder: Tianmen Mountain is a symbol of Zhangjiajie, and Tianmen is also a symbol of Tianmen Mountain. Its unique shape is unparalleled and it is known as the "largest gate in the world". Tianmen is embedded in the cliff of Tianmen Mountain, which is one kilometer high. The gate is 131.5 meters high, 37 meters wide, and 20 meters deep, and can fly light aircraft. You can see the pastoral scenery in the south and the urban scenery in the north. Tianmen Cave has wonders such as "Forty Eight Plum Blossoms Rain", "Heavenly Broom Descending", and "Tianmen Flying Waterfall".

Tianmen Cave, with a height of 131.5 meters and a width of over 50 meters, is located on the Qianxun Su Wall facing north and south. It is majestic and towering, and is a rare high-altitude karst cave that passes through mountains. It is also a magnificent wonder that showcases the wonders of nature.

The Tianmen Mountain Cableway is 7455 meters long, ranking first in the world. The cableway route has an inclined length of 7455 meters and a horizontal height difference of 1279 meters between the upper and lower stations. It starts from the city garden in the center of Zhangjiajie and reaches the primitive sky garden at the top of Tianmen Mountain, like a rainbow crossing the "human world" and "sky", and also like a giant dragon soaring through the plain clouds, leaning against the mountain wall, lifting the ground into the sky, magnificent and spectacular.

The Tianmen Mountain Highway, with its connection to the sky, has become the gateway to the sky in people's hearts, and the mountain road leading to Tianmen Cave is also known as the "Tongtian Avenue". The Tongtian Avenue has exactly 99 bends, which coincides with the meaning of "the sky has nine layers, and the clouds have nine heavens".

The most profound feeling of Tongtian Avenue may be the word 'surprise'. The breathtaking "Tongtian Avenue" winds through the steep cliffs of the mountains, marvels at the magnificent architecture of the "Tongtian Avenue" standing amidst the towering walls, and marvels at the wonder of human history created by the "Tongtian Avenue" jade belt fluttering in the sky of the world.

The mountain escalator runs through the mountain tunnel, from the bottom of Tianmen Cave to the top of the mountain, with a total of 12 sections. The total length of the escalator steps is 897 meters, with a lifting height of 340 meters and a total span of 692 meters. There are 16 30 meter high heavy-duty bus escalators and 3 20 meter high heavy-duty bus escalators, with a one-way transportation capacity of 3600 people/hour.

[glass walkway] There are three glass walkway in the Tianmen Mountain Scenic Area. Except for building a support with reinforced concrete every one meter, the plank paths are all made of highly transparent tempered glass. It is said that each piece of glass can bear 1000 kg, so there is no problem with safety. The railing is also made of double-layer tempered glass and stainless steel frame!

Tianmen Peak is a plateau with an area equivalent to 10 Tiananmen Square squares, about 2 square kilometers, an altitude of 1500 meters, and a relative height difference of 1200 meters from the city center. It faces the sky on all sides, like a knife cutting an axe. There are about 500 acres of high mountain karst primitive forest in the northwest of the mountaintop, which contains rare animal and plant resources such as Chinese pigeon flowers, Dayong goose ear carps, and flying foxes.

Tianmen Mountain Temple has a long history of Buddhist tradition, dating back to the Tang Dynasty, flourishing in the Song Dynasty, and reaching its peak in the Ming Dynasty. It still maintains the tradition of holding temple fairs three times a year to this day. Tianmen Mountain Temple is located at the top of Tianmen Mountain, covering an area of about 50 acres. It is a unique temple where Buddhism and Taoism converge.

The Ghost Valley God Cave in Zhangjiajie has a long history of hard qigong and is known as the "hometown of qigong" throughout the country. The birthplace of Zhangjiajie Hard Qigong is the Guigu Cave in Tianmen Mountain. According to old records, during the Warring States period, the ancestor of the Zongheng family, Guiguzi, studied and taught martial arts from the Book of Changes here. Therefore, Zhangjiajie Hard Qigong is also known as the "Guiguzi Divine Skill".

The Ghost Valley Trail is 1600 meters long with an average elevation of 1400 meters. It starts at Yihongguan and ends at Xiaotianmen. Unlike other boardwalks, the entire Guigu boardwalk is neither on the top nor on the side of a cliff, but rather stands in the middle of a towering cliff, giving people the feeling of rising and falling together with the cliff.

Tianmen Mountain can be said to be a paradise for many challengers. If you also want to experience the thrilling and exciting feeling, then come to Tianmen Mountain and challenge yourself.
