The Zhangjiajie National Forest Park – Travel in China

The Zhangjiajie National Forest Park is a remarkable national backwoods park situated in Zhangjiajie City in Hunan Province in the People’s Republic of China. It is one of a few national stops inside the Wulingyuan Scenic Area.After another train experience in China, we at long last touched base in Zhangjiajie, a town situated in northwestern Hunan Province, home to Wulingyuan Natural Park (Zhangjiajie National Park).While educating individuals concerning our trek to Zhangjiajie, we understood many question marks showing up, yet words like “Symbol” and “Drifting Mountains of Pandora” helped them see better what our goal was about. What’s more, in fact, I felt a similar way when Alex informed me regarding it out of the blue.

Step by step instructions to reach Zhangjiajie

The most ideal approach to achieve the city is via train or plane. The air terminal has associations with 35 residential air terminals, just as flights to Seoul, Taiwan and Bangkok. Via train, Zhangjiajie can be come to by means of 29 urban communities. Both the air terminal and the train station are not a long way from the downtown area.
The best time to head out to this area in China is April or October-November. We would not suggest going amid Chinese occasions or in the sweltering summer months. Aside from the astonishing common stone developments, there is significantly more to see, from the longest and most astounding glass extension to the longest link vehicle on the planet.

Wulingyuan Natural Park – The center grand zone of Zhangjiajie

Our center was the National Park of Zhangjiajie (Wulingyuan), which has a place with the rundown of UNESCO World Heritage since 1992. The most excellent parts of the recreation center are Zhangjiajie National Forest Park, Suoxiyu Viewpoint, Tianzi Mountain Viewpoint and Yangjiajie Viewpoint. Be that as it may, with so much decision, by what means would it be advisable for you to design the visit there? We confronted the very same inquiry when we arranged our excursion to the recreation center.

Here is a conceivable recommendation

Sadly, we have not arranged much time in the city in light of the fact that our visa in China just constrained us to pursue a tight calendar. We remained a sum of 3 evenings, one of them in the recreation center itself. The lodging in Zhangjiajie cost us 10 Euro for a private room for each night and for the dinners we fundamentally paid under 2 Euro each. In China we appreciated going to nearby nourishment slows down, as we frequently could pick what goes into the WOK and, most importantly, the costs were extremely shoddy.
Upon the arrival of our landing we didn’t do much, aside from strolling around the territory where we remained. On the second day we passed by transport from the stop alongside the focal train station to the Zhangjiajie National Park. At the transport station, you just need to go to the traveler transports, which leave at customary interims (about each 10 – 15 minutes) towards the recreation center, which takes around 50 minutes and expenses about 2.60 Euro (20 RMB). It is ideal on the off chance that you look into the Chinese name on the web before you go, so you can request the transport, in the event that you don’t discover it effectively.

Once in Wulingyuan, you can either get another transport to one of the other park passages (which are great shown) or stroll to Wujiayu Ticket Station. We prescribe utilizing the disconnected guide of maps.me, on the grounds that the Google Apps don’t work in China.
The tickets are very costly, with an expense of 32 Euro (245 RMB) per grown-up, yet substantial for 4 days. In the recreation center itself you pay additional for link autos, lifts and some different attractions. At the data work area is a guide with all costs, which is extremely useful to direct you. The ticket is an attractive card, which is coordinated with the unique mark at the passage and permits access for the following couple of days.

Free transports in the recreation center

Without flaw behind the passageway you will locate the purple transports, which are accessible for nothing in the recreation center. We took the transport to our first feature, the Tianzi Mountain Cable Car. The ride by link vehicle had an expense of 9.50 Euro (72 RMB) per individual, which we found somewhat costly, yet later the perspective of the sandstone rocks felt very adjusting at the cost.
From that point we took the transport that brough us to Tianzishan Senic Office, where we began our stroll towards the station of the Ten-Mille Gallery Tram Bahn. The lovely way leads from here basically downhill and is thusly simple. When we landed at the station we wanted to go for the 30 minutes stroll as opposed to utilizing the cable car.
We proceeded by transport to the “Four Streams Crossroad”. Be careful, there are two transport stations, don’t take the wrong one that drives you towards the exit. We ceased by the waterway for a minute, at that point set out toward the lift.





The Bailong Elevator is the biggest and quickest open air lift on the planet. With respect to the link vehicle, we paid 9.50 Euro (72 RMB) and not long after we were launch 3 m for every second towards the sky. Once at the best, we were compensated with an awesome view thus we came nearer to our feature of the day.

The universe of Pandora

Just a short transport ride isolated us from the “Drifting Avatar Mountains”. Here we understood that it was more swarmed than in alternate territories. In any case, we were extraordinarily fortunate, there were just a couple of individuals throughout the day thus we didn’t need to line by any means. It is said that regarding 30,000 guests visit the attractions around Zhangjiajie consistently, however that wasn’t detectable.
The Avatar Mountains are particularly delightful and it isn’t astounding why this place roused the film of James Cameron. It is practically difficult to catch in a photograph the inclination propelled by these enormous sandstone shake developments. It was extremely noteworthy.
Here we remained for some time and watched the monkeys, before taking the transport to the inn… Well, in any event that is the thing that we thought we were doing. When we landed at the transport stop at 6 pm, we were informed that the transports were just going one way, which shocked us in light of the fact that in the pamphlet it was obviously shown that the transports would keep running until 7 pm. No one could answer us why transports wouldn’t go additionally the other way. Obviously we could have gone the other way and searched for a place to remain in Wulingyuan, yet that would intend to pay again for the lift so as to leave the recreation center.

Lost in the national park

For a short minute, we didn’t realize what to do, when a decent old woman showed up and inquired as to whether we require convenience. Most likely it happens frequently that guests remained behind in the recreation center.
The lady gave us a reasonable cost and took us to her home, which was amidst the recreation center and everybody there was well disposed. Alex and I got a decent live with excessively quick wifi (a standout amongst the best we had in China) and something to eat. We appreciated the quietness that assumed control over the recreation center and were exceptionally glad that we could drop our initially reserved lodging.




The Zhangjiajie National Forest Park – Avatar Mountains

Day two in Pandora

The following morning we exploited the great area and left the convenience as of now at 8.00 am. We delighted in the vacancy of the recreation center and came back to the “Gliding Avatar Mountains”, which appeared to be unique in the first part of the day light.
We took the transport to another territory of the recreation center, with the arrangement to appreciate the view at Yangjiajie Station and from that point the way leaded us to the lower link vehicle station, from where the transport took us to the exit of the recreation center (Yangjiajie Ticket Station).
Following a 15 minute walk, we found the transport that took us back to Zhangjiajie. Notwithstanding the shorter separation, the trek took somewhat longer than from Wujiayu Ticket Station because of the terrible street conditions.
