Grand Canyon Glass Bridge view
Location: Grand Canyon, Zhangjiajie, Hunan, China
Entrance fee: 128¥ (canyon + glass sky walk)
Date: July 21, 2022
Zhangjiajie Grand Canyon Glass Bridge is the world's tallest and longest pedestrian glass bridge in China and worldwide. It’s about 430 meters long and 300 meters high.
It’s a must visit place if you like nature. The view is just stunning. When I was walking on the bridge I had lots of emotions. From the beginning I had a terrible fear, then this beautiful nature made me relax and calm down.

Zhangjiajie Grand Canyon Glass Bridge Strolls
Ticking this enthralling experience off my bucket list has arguably been the highlight of all of 2022. Coming here took some planning & a lot of luck because that’s when lockdown was starting. Now. having the ordinarily packed bridge mostly to myself made this trip all the more worth it. I opted to cross bridge, zipline parallel to it then took a long slide on the side of the mountain to the bottom. I walked at the bottom of the valley to see the bridge I had crossed from below, & OMG!!! Took the outdoor elevator up to the bridge then crossed it back to my starting point.
I’d recommend you take your best travel buddies for this epic adventure!
I’m headed there again next year!

How brave are you to conquer the bridge?
You can find this thrilling experience in Zhangjiajie, Hunan Province. Conquer the worlds longest Glass Bridge at the Grand Canyon and if you dare, try bungy jumping off it too.
If you're scared of heights, there is a walking platform area on each side of the bridge pathway. If you're brave enough, walk in the centre on the bridge on the glass and experience your insides turning into jelly.
You have options of taking an elevator and slide down to the bottom of the mountain. Once you reach the bottom, I highly recommend you do the 5km valley walk. Best time for this is late afternoon. Less crowds and not as hot. At the end of the walk, you will experience a 500m boat ride to the exit.

Zhangjiajie Grand Canyon Travel Recommendations for 2024 (Updated in Apr)
Friends who are preparing to go to Zhangjiajie, please look here
Travelers who are preparing to go to Zhangjiajie, please take 5 minutes to read this guide on how to travel independently in Zhangjiajie, and how to spend 5 days and 4 nights there, for reference.
Must-visit attractions in Zhangjiajie: Forest Park, Tianmen Mountain, Zhangjiajie Grand Canyon, Zhangjiajie Glass Bridge, Phoenix Ancient City!
~~~Without further ado, let me share my itinerary for 5 days and 4 nights in Zhangjiajie!
Here is my detailed itinerary for 5 days and 4 nights in Zhangjiajie:
Day 1: Arrive in Zhangjiajie—Check into the hotel (it's quite late, so stay near the train station)
Day 2: 5A-level scenic spot Tianmen Mountain National Forest Park—Glass plank road—Tianmen Cave—Night view of Phoenix Ancient City
Day 3: Phoenix Ancient City—Morong Miao Village—Furong Town—Zhangjiajie
Day 4: Wulingyuan 5A-level scenic spot—Yuanjiajie—Mihun Terrace—Qiankun Column—Yangjiajie—Stay in Wulingyuan
Day 5: Ten-mile Gallery—Golden Whip Stream—Tusi City
To sum up this trip to Zhangjiajie, I had a lot of fun, the attractions are very rich, including the fairyland of Zhangjiajie and the cultural experience of Phoenix Ancient City.
🚉【About Transportation】
Zhangjiajie now has high-speed rail service. Those with better economic conditions can choose to fly. Those who want to save money or are relatively close can choose to take the train or bus. I chose to take the train from Guangdong.
🏨【About Accommodation】
The accommodation this time was very special. I stayed in the scenic area on the first night and saw a very beautiful sunrise. The second night I stayed in a guesthouse in Zhangjiajie city. On the third night, I stayed in Phoenix and saw the romantic night view of Phoenix Ancient City. It felt very special.
🖼【About Food】
People in Hunan love spicy food. Both Zhangjiajie and Phoenix are quite humid. If you don't eat spicy food, be sure to tell the restaurant. When you go to Zhangjiajie, you must try the three-pot dish and rice wine. In Phoenix, you must try the blood duck. The taste is very good, but be sure to choose a more authentic restaurant. There are also some snacks like Tujia bacon and sausage, Golden Whip Stream, and hairy chestnuts that are delicious.
【How to save money in Zhangjiajie】
1. Don't go to places you shouldn't go to, such as not going to restaurants where locals don't often go. The prices will be much cheaper and the food will be delicious.
2. Don't join a tour group at the departure place. For example, if I depart from Guangdong, I won't join a tour group in Guangdong, because Guangdong travel agencies will transfer to local agencies for reception. There is an extra link here, and the price will definitely be higher.
3. Book the hotel online in advance, it will be much cheaper.
4. Don't go to the hotels recommended by the touts or touting aunties at the airport or train station exits. That's a one-way street to being ripped off.

Zhangjiajie Grand Canyon
Location: Grand Canyon, Zhangjiajie, Hunan, China
Entrance fee: 128¥ (canyon + glass sky walk)
Date: July 21, 2022
The nature was so stunning in Grand Canyon. At the end of the Glass Bridge there’s a rock climbing place, I could climb only half of it (but for the first time, it was a good result, I’m very happy for that).
After passing the bridge we took an elevator, it was 30¥. Then slide way - 30¥ and a boat - 20¥. This helped us save more time, instead of using 1.5-2hours on the stairs, we passed it in just half an hour. After that we walked along the canyon and just admired the view.

Zhangjiajie Grand Canyon.
The Grand Canyon is a place that you can’t miss if you are in the city of Zhangjiajie. This place is surrounded with so much nature and fresh air that will make you feel recharged.
It is not an easy hiking so it is not recommended for people with weak knees. Make sure you bring comfortable shoes and some water, this site requires long walking around (2 to 3 hours). In case of getting exhausted is possible to find some places to sit down.
The water has such a beautiful greenish shade, I though the pics about this place were photoshopped but in person you will see those true beautiful colours.

Zhangjiajie - Grand Canyon
I booked my tickets to the Grand Canyon and glass bridge a day in advance. I used a travel agent on Wechat and the combined ticket cost 219rmb. I arrived at around 8.45am and the site was already starting to get busy. It opens at 8am and I would suggest arriving as early as possible!
I started with the glass bridge, it was brilliant to walk over and fantastic for photo opportunities. On a sunny day however it’s extremely hot and I recommend sun glasses. After the glass bridge I zip lined down (50rmb) and got a slide (50rmb) the rest of the way to the bottom of the mountain. It was incredible fun and worth every penny! I then took a small boat journey (20rmb) to the walking trial through the Grand Canyon. This was very scenic and peaceful. I passed waterfalls, forests and a cave. You are then put onto another boat that takes you to the exit.
The visit was exciting and definitely something you should do if ever in Zhangjiajie. I’ve attached a price list of other optional activities you can do such as bungee jumping. With taxis it can be an expensive day out, but one to remember.

Tianmen Mountain Travel Recommendations for 2024 (Updated in Apr)
We arrived at Zhangjiajie at more than 9 o'clock in the morning, how beautiful it is
Live picture to see how beautiful Zhangjiajie Tianmen Mountain is!!
We arrived at Zhangjiajie at more than 9 o'clock in the morning, the hotel we booked (Meiji Hotel, the environment is not bad) is just opposite Tianmen Mountain, it is very convenient to walk for five minutes, about 11:30 arrived at the queue place (the scenic area has road signs, it is easy to find) queue for more than half an hour can sit up and, the scenery along the way is very beautiful, you can enjoy about half an hour! Arrive at the top of the mountain, you can follow the signs all the way, enjoy the scenery along the way, feel the magic of nature~
Then take the 7-section mountain-crossing escalator to reach Tianmen Cave, looking down is simply beautiful (p1) We chose to hold the railing down 999 steps of the ladder (walking down is not as scary as imagined, but be sure to pay attention to safety and hold the railing down! You can also choose the convenient channel)
The way down the mountain is still a bit of a journey, continue to follow the signs to the place to ride (the scenery along the way is also super beautiful!) Didn't sit for a while and arrived, then continue to queue to take the shuttle bus down the mountain~ (There are really a lot of Koreans and Thais in Tianmen Mountain)
We bought the A route (it's really friendly for two people who don't usually exercise) 268 Glass plank road 5 (there will be staff to help take photos halfway through, choose whether to buy photos according to your own needs) Cableway heavy 25 (the cableway is on the side of Tianmen Mountain Temple, and it is different from the one that came up at the beginning, it is relatively exciting and fun!!!p7)10 Intestine 8 (there is a stage where food is bought, you can rest and listen to some tunes)

Regret coming too late! This wave of rime is too fragrant!
It's not that Harbin can't afford to go, but the snow scene in Zhangjiajie is more cost-effective!
Some time ago, the rime of Tianmen Mountain in Zhangjiajie was super popular! Don't miss it again. It's getting cold again, come and see this wave of rime quickly! Feel the charm of the rime in the south!
It's so beautiful~ If you don't come, you will really regret it for a year! Come to Zhangjiajie to feel the rime

Zhangjiajie National Forest Park Travel Recommendations for 2024 (Updated in Apr)
China's first national forest park
Zhangjiajie National Forest Park is the first national forest park in China, and it is a World Natural Heritage site. It features a quartz sandstone peak forest landform, also known as the Zhangjiajie landform, which is the only landform in the world named after a region. Many famous people have visited Zhangjiajie and left inscriptions as a memento.
Entering Zhangjiajie National Forest Park is like stepping into a true world geological park! As you enter the forest park, you are greeted by a forest of peculiar peaks, with exquisitely shaped and lively mountains coming into view. The landscape is unparalleled in the world, with no trace of human sculpting, truly a marvel of nature's craftsmanship. The world's number one natural stone bridge spans between two mountains, the Hallelujah Mountains in 'Avatar' stand tall and erect, the beauty of the peaks and valleys of Huangshi Village, the staggered mountains, such as the 'Little Waist', the portrait on the hundred-yuan bill, the God-coming Peak, the Star-picking Platform, all seem to bear some resemblance.
Strolling along the wooden walkway of Jinbian Stream, the sunlight filters through the lush forest, weaving through the peaks and quiet valleys, listening to the ding-dong of the mountain streams, watching the monkeys by the road that are not afraid of tourists, looking up at the whimsically shaped stone peaks and letting your imagination run wild, the figures and stories that are both like and unlike anything you've seen are all very beautiful and spectacular!

Touring the mountains and waters of Zhangjiajie, visiting the seventy-two strange towers
Tianmen Mountain National Forest Park Zhangjiajie Grand Canyon is breathtakingly beautiful|||It rained a bit today. There was a layer of fog on the water when we went. It was really breathtakingly beautiful. I recommend everyone to go. It's super beautiful~
Zhangjiajie is really a place where you accidentally enter a fairyland, Zhangjiajie two-day route recommendation|||Characteristics of each scenic spot:
● Yuanjiajie: There are hundreds of dragon ladders, Avatar shooting location, many tour groups.
● Tianzi Mountain: The scenic spots are concentrated, less time-consuming, easy and effortless, and there are many tour groups.
● Yangjiajie: Low level of development, few people, few tour groups, Wulongzhai and Tianbofu scenic spots have been struck by lightning and are temporarily closed.
● Huangshi Village: Independent scenic spot, few people, few tour groups, long total time (2 hours on foot).
● Ten-mile Gallery: The entrance and exit are a line, with a ground rail train.
● Jinbianxi: Much better looking than the Ten-mile Gallery, the tour group will not walk the whole journey (2.5 hours in total).
●PS: If time is limited, don't stick to popular scenic spots like Yuanjiajie and Tianzi Mountain. The scenery on the mountain is actually similar. The scenery of Huangshi Village can completely replace it, and there are fewer people. If you choose one of the Ten-mile Gallery and Jinbianxi, definitely choose Jinbianxi. If you walk the whole journey, there are very few people.
●Two-day recommended route (the route I took)
DAY1:
Sign door in→Bus→Bailong ladder up→Yuanjiajie→Bus→Yangjiajie→Bus→Tianzi Mountain→Cable car down→Bus→→Sign door out
DAY2:
Sign door in→Bus→Jinbianxi→Bus→ Huangshi Village (cable car up and down)→Bus→Exit of Forest Park
Section bus:
Take the bus, on the route from the sign door to various scenic spots, sit in the same position as the driver, the scenery outside the window is back to the mountain and facing the scene, it looks better. From Yangjiajie to Tianzi Mountain, and the route back to the sign door, sit on the right side of the driver, the scenery is good.
The journey often passes through several scenic spots. Pay attention to the station shouted by the master and ask more to avoid getting off the wrong station. You can also tell the master if you want to get off halfway. The journey from Yangjiajie to Tianzi Mountain is longer, about 30-40 minutes, and it is a minibus.
Except for Yuanjiajie is Bailong ladder, the other 3 mountain scenic spots all have cable cars up and down. One way is 65-72 yuan, ends at 18:00, it is recommended to sit on the side of the cable car operation, then turn around and lean on the glass to see the scenery, sacrifice some comfort, but the scenery is in full view.
Walking up and down the mountain
Generally walking is to walk the chaotic slope of Yuanjiajie, the whole journey is about 1.5 hours, it should be just walking, there is no scenery. In general, the scenic spots are just looking at a large piece of bamboo shoot-like mountains from different angles. The part of the mountain is just walking in the forest and constantly switching between going to the observation deck to look out. Some observation decks have a wide view, and some are blocked by trees and cannot see the full view of the scenery, but the overall scenery is not much different. The momentum is magnificent, it can be said that after seeing the mountains of Wulingyuan, ordinary mountains can't enter the eyes, and they can't be seen.
The roads on the mountain, including the roads of Tianmen Cave, the span and quantity of ups and downs are moderate, and there is not much reaction after walking for 2 days, and those with good foot strength should not need equipment for the whole journey.

Zhangjiajie Travel Suggestions
❣Free travel: For babies who only play for 2-3 days, free travel is more convenient. You can go to Zhangjiajie Forest Park or Tianmen Mountain to play, choose 2-3 places you want to go, and make a guide in advance
❣Group tour: If you play for 4-5 days, it is recommended to follow a local group, without considering transportation, accommodation, travel routes and scenic spot tickets are well arranged, saving time, effort and money, just enjoy the holiday
❣The scenic spots in Zhangjiajie are far apart, and the transportation back and forth is not convenient. You can find a reliable local group for the first time, 5 days including meals, accommodation, tickets, etc., every day is very good, and you don't have to worry about luggage, transportation and other issues, it is very cost-effective
