Day 2 Zhangjiajie Tour | Ten-mile Gallery, Bailong Elevator, Yuanjiajie, Tianzi Mountain
A full-day Zhangjiajie tour with Ten-mile Gallery, Bailong Elevator, Yuanjiajie, Tianzi Mountain. (B+L)

After breakfast, you’ll visit Zhangjiajie National Forest Park in Wulingyuan, where you’ll explore the Ten-Mile Gallery, Yuanjiajie, and behold the awe-inspiring Hallelujah Mountains (Qiankun Pillar). After lunch, you’ll be transferred to Tianzi Mountain Nature Reserve, where you’ll hike through stunning peak forests and enjoy panoramic views. Throughout the day, you’ll immerse yourself in the breathtaking beauty of the Wulingyuan Scenic Area - home to over 3,000 towering quartz-sandstone pillars, a UNESCO-listed landscape of rare geological wonder.

In the morning, step into the enchanting Ten-Mile Gallery, a valley alive with natural artistry. Glide through on a scenic tram, passing iconic rock formations like The God of Longevity Welcoming Guests, The Old Herb Picker, and the majestic Three Sisters Peaks. For the full experience, ride the tram in and stroll back on foot — a peaceful way to soak in every magical detail of this natural masterpiece.

Next, head to Yuanjiajie, the real-life inspiration for the floating mountains in Avatar. A sightseeing bus will take you to the Bailong Elevator, known as the "World’s No. 1 Outdoor Elevator". Holding a Guinness World Record for being the tallest, fastest, and heaviest outdoor elevator, it lifts you 326 meters in just 66 seconds from the valley floor to the mountain top.

From there, hike into Yuanjiajie - a mystical world of towering pillars and misty peaks. Don’t miss the South Sky Pillar (Avatar Mountain), the Floating Peak (1,074m) — a 150-meter-tall vertical spire rising from the valley - and the dramatic Yuanjiajie Scenic Trail (3.5 km), built along a cliff’s edge and adorned with red prayer ribbons.

Along the way, admire natural wonders like:

  • Backyard Garden(后花园)
  • Lost Soul Platform(迷魂台) - the best viewpoint in Yuanjiajie
  • First Bridge Under Heaven(天下第一桥) - a natural stone arch, Yuanjiajie’s iconic landmark

This unique sandstone forest was shaped by millions of years of tectonic movement and erosion - a rare geological phenomenon that inspires wonder and awe.

After lunch, board the sightseeing bus to Tianzi Mountain Nature Reserve, named after Xiang Dakun, a Tujia ethnic leader who declared himself “Tianzi” (Son of Heaven) during the early Ming Dynasty (1368–1644). At 1,262 meters, Tianzi Mountain is in the prime stage of peak forest evolution — hailed as the "King of Peaks" and famously featured in the classic TV series Journey to the West.

From Dianjiangtai Platform (点将台), gaze across the West Sea Peaks Forest - a sea of jagged peaks rising from a misty canyon. Don’t miss the Imperial Writing Brush Peaks (御笔峰), a row of six towering stone pillars resembling ancient calligraphy brushes — said to be the pen once used by Xiang Tianzi.

Then, hike to He Long Park (贺龙公园) to see the bronze statue of Marshal He Long and his warhorse, and visit Tianzige Pavilion (天子阁). At 30 meters tall, the pavilion offers a panoramic view of the entire mountain range - peaks stretching endlessly, a sight of true grandeur.

After the tour, return to your hotel for a well-deserved rest.

Note: During peak seasons, your guide may adjust the itinerary (e.g., reverse the route) to avoid large crowds and ensure more comfortable experience.

Day 3 Zhangjiajie Grand Canyon Tour | Zhangjiajie Grand Canyon Glass Bridge, Baofeng Lake
A visit to Zhangjiajie Grand Canyon Glass Bridge, Baofeng Lake. (B+L)

After breakfast, you’ll be transferred from Wulingyuan to Zhangjiajie Grand Canyon, approximately 56 km away (about 1.5 hours by car). There, you’ll experience the breathtaking Grand Canyon Glass Bridge. Afterward, enjoy delicious lunch before heading to Baofeng Lake for a relaxing boat ride. In the late afternoon, you’ll return to Zhangjiajie City (about 35 km, 1-hour drive) for an overnight stay.

Famous for its numerous waterfalls and fresh mountain air, Zhangjiajie Grand Canyon is a must-visit destination - especially for photographers and adventure lovers. The Glass Bridge is the highlight: the world’s longest and highest glass-bottomed bridge, stretching 375 meters between two dramatic cliffs and soaring 300 meters above the valley.

Designed by Israeli architect Haim Dotan, the bridge is made entirely of glass - no steel structure - and can support up to 800 people at once. At its center is the world’s highest bungee jumping platform, where thrill-seekers can fulfill their dream of flying like Spider-Man (bungee jump fees are self-paid). Walking across the bridge takes about 1 hour, offering a heart-pounding yet unforgettable experience.

As you step onto the crystal-clear surface, you’ll look straight down into a lush, mist-filled canyon - a sensation like floating in mid-air. The panoramic views of the entire canyon are simply stunning. Come take on the skywalk challenge and show the world your courage!

After the adrenaline rush of the glass bridge, unwind at the serene, mirror-like Baofeng Lake. From the entrance, a shuttle bus will take you to the pier, where you’ll board a traditional wooden boat for a peaceful cruise across the lake.

Spanning 2.5 kilometers long, 200-1,000 meters wide, and averaging 72 meters deep, Baofeng Lake lies in a mountain basin, surrounded by lush greenery and striking rock formations. As you glide across the calm waters, you’ll be captivated by the reflections of towering peaks and serenaded by traditional folk songs performed by local ethnic performers - a perfect contrast to the morning’s thrills.

After the tour, return to Zhangjiajie City for your overnight stay.

Day 4 Zhangjiajie Tour | Tianmenshan National Forest Park, Tianmenshan Cable Car, Tianmen Cave, Glass Walkway, Transfer to Fenghuang Ancient Town
Visit Tianmenshan and transfer to Fenghuang Ancient Town by car or high speed train. (B+L)

Today, you’ll spend a half-day exploring Tianmen Mountain in Tianmenshan National Forest Park, known as the "Soul of Zhangjiajie" and the "No. 1 Sacred Mountain of Western Hunan". Located just 8 kilometers from Zhangjiajie city center, the scenic area is suitable for all ages, and climbing is not required.

Your journey begins with the world’s longest cable car, stretching 7,455 meters, which whisks you directly to the mountaintop in about 30 minutes. A smaller cableway is also available on the summit. The only walking section is the Tianmen Cave staircase, but don’t worry - an elevator is provided.

As you ascend, enjoy panoramic views of the winding 99-bend mountain road (the "Heaven’s Road") and lush bonsai-like gardens. Then, brace yourself for an exhilarating adventure:

  • Walk the 60-meter Glass Walkway, a transparent path suspended 1,430 metersabove a bottomless valley - a true walk in the sky.
  • Explore the 1.6-kilometer Cliff-Hanging Walkway, built along the mountain’s edge for breathtaking views.
  • Visit Tianmen Temple, a Qing Dynasty-style Buddhist temple nestled in greenery.

Next, take the escalator down to Tianmen Cave, the world’s highest natural mountain arch (131.5 meters tall). Also known as Heaven’s Gate, it’s often wreathed in mist or illuminated by sunlight, creating a magical, ever-changing display. Take your time to capture photos. You can then walk down 999 steps or take the elevator before returning to the cable car station. Get down by cable car.

After the mountain tour, travel to Fenghuang Ancient Town, about 3.5 hours (237 km) by car(Transfer Note: A high-speed train connects Zhangjiajie and Fenghuang - just 1-hour ride one way. If the group size is only a few participants, we may arrange high-speed train transfers between Zhangjiajie and Fenghuang. All are accompanied by our local guide.)

One of China’s most beautiful ancient towns, Fenghuang is home to the Miao and Tujia ethnic groups. Built along the serene Tuo River, it features tightly packed stilt houses (Diaojiaolou), where daily life unfolds as it has for centuries - women wash clothes and vegetables by the river, men fish with nets, and meals are prepared riverside.

A 10-minute boat ride on the Tuo Jiang River offers a peaceful way to soak in the scenery.

As night falls, Fenghuang’s night view comes alive. Stroll through ancient courtyards and riverside wooden houses, explore the lively night market, and enjoy the glow of lanterns reflecting on the water. The dazzling lights create a dreamlike atmosphere - a truly unforgettable experience.

After sending us your requirements, one of our professional travel experts will get back to you within 0.5 to 24 hours and we guarantee to reserve a place for you first. When all the information have confirmed, then you make the payment. Please feel free to contact the travel expert directly if you have any questions prior to booking.
Deadline for Booking a Group Tour:
The deadline for receiving guests is tentatively 7 days before departure. For trips to Tibet and the Yangtze River Three Gorges, the deadline is extended to 15 days before departure.
Transportation
In a group tour, it means you will transfer to the tourist attractions in one city by coach. The maximum group size will be 12 people. It will be a small group size traveling at comfortable pace. The coach we selected is spacious and comfortable. As for traveling between two destinations, we use domestic flights (economy seat) or high speed trains (second class seat, usually less than 6 hours). The local drivers will pick you up at the airport/train stations, and escort you to the hotel.
Meals
“B” stands for breakfast. You will have it at your hotel in the morning.
'L' stands for lunch. The restaurants we arrange are designated tourist restaurants approved by the local tourism administration. They maintain good sanitary conditions, and your guide will assist you in ordering dishes.
'D' stands for dinner. Please refer to the detailed itinerary for each day. Dinners are usually excluded, giving you the chance to try authentic Chinese food and local snacks. However, if you take the Yangtze River cruise, dinners will be included onboard. Similarly, if you are on a group tour to Tibet, dinner will be included when visiting Mount Everest Base Camp (including Tibetan hot pot).
If you have special dietary requirements (vegetarian, halal, kosher, Indian, or gluten-free), please let us know before your booking. We will try our best to take care of you.
Regarding Children's Fees:
(1) Occupying a bed: Children will be charged the adult rate. (2) Not occupying a bed: Children will be charged the group tour fee minus the single room difference. Any ticket discounts will be refunded.
Single Room Supplement:
If you are traveling alone and prefer a private room, a single room supplement will apply. Please contact our travel experts for the exact fee.
Free Pick-up & Drop-off Service:
(1) Free pick-up is available for flights/trains arriving between 08:00 and 22:00.
(2) Free drop-off is available for flights/trains departing between 09:00 and 23:00.
Additional Cost for Private Transfer:

Happy and enjoyable journey
This is my first time experience going thru a tour group by communicating with Kayla, my planner. Everything was properly arranged. My 8days tour with Max our guide who is attentive, friendly and helpful by answering all my queries. Driver also very friendly. The trip with a minimum 1 - 2 sight-seeing per day was favorable to me as I was experiencing high altitude issue early of the journey. The group size of 14 people was indeed nice and everyone get along well. I am thankful to Asia Odyssey for having an itinerary that meet my expectation.

Excellent travel company!
I did the Beijing-Xi'an-Guillin-Yangtze river-Shanghai group tour in April 2024. The tour was well organised and the guides knew so much about each site. Vincent also helped me extend my trip to visit Suzhou and Hangzhou. At every destination I was met by knowledgeable helpful guides who went above and beyond their duty. The guides spent so many hours touring us around each city ensuring we got the best services and experiences offered. They also assisted us to taste the best street food at every location. The guides were essential in helping us navigate the high speed rail/airports and local taxis/didi. I would definitely recommend this service to anyone wishing to visit China! It's very helpful to have all your transportation and hotels organized by experienced staff.I enjoyed my month stay in China thanks to Asian odyssey!
