Exploring the wonders of the Earth - Zhangjiajie

This time, I came with full expectations to the 'Avatar Planet' on Earth - Zhangjiajie.

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.

This’s a must if you’re in Zhangjiajie

This is a MUST if you are in Zhangjiajie. It’s just as breathtaking as the Avatar mountains. You will need a day for Tianmen mountain. It costs RMB275 for cable car and cable car down. We took the bus up to the first stop of the mountain then walked up to the Cave (mountain with the hole). Then walked up 1,000 steps. The view is amazing. From there we then took the world’s longest escalator to the top of the mountain. We then went from the West side (yellow route) and followed the mountain edge to the east side ;red route). We also took the ski lift chair to the pagoda for a magnificent view. We did a return trip. Costs RMB25 one way. #naturalwonders#themeparks#nationalpark#lakes#beaches#infinitypool

#ZhangjiajieChina

the amazing view and breathtaking experience of glass bridge at Zhangjiajie, hunan province, china is a must tick in your bucket list today💪 all you can say when you physically see the place was a big “WOW” or “WHOAH”!! #naturalwonders#urbanexplorer

Zhangjiajie Grand Canyon, the mountains and rivers show the sun is high, and the tourists are like painting on the middle reaches. ⛰ The voyage was a bit short and never meant to be exhausted! The canyon is lush with vegetation, the air is fresh, cool and comfortable, and the stream is filled with a layer of mist.

Have you try to cross a glass bridge? It was both thrilling and exciting. At first, you might be thrilled but then feel excited to reach the end of the bridge. But, in the middle of the journey across the bridge, there was a different feeling. My daughter and her friend felt curious to see what's under the bridge. Then, they bravely enjoyed the view under the bridge.

Defy gravity on the Zhangjiajie Glass Bridge—the world’s longest and highest

#chinatrip Suspended above a deep, lush canyon in Hunan Province, the Zhangjiajie Grand Canyon Glass Bridge offers an exhilarating experience like no other. Spanning 430 meters and standing 300 meters above the ground, this architectural marvel is the longest and highest glass bridge in the world. As you step onto its transparent walkway, the ground beneath you seems to disappear, replaced by a dizzying view of the canyon floor far below. This adrenaline-pumping adventure is not for the faint of heart, but for those brave enough to face their fear of heights, the reward is unparalleled—a panoramic vista of towering sandstone pillars, dense forests, and cascading waterfalls. The surrounding Zhangjiajie National Forest Park, a UNESCO World Heritage site, is equally mesmerizing, with its surreal, otherworldly landscapes that inspired the floating mountains in James Cameron’s “Avatar.” Beyond the bridge, explore the park’s many trails, take a boat ride along the serene Baofeng Lake, or ride the world’s longest and steepest outdoor elevator, the Bailong Elevator, to the summit of the Tianzi Mountain. Zhangjiajie is a place where adventure and natural beauty merge, offering an unforgettable experience that lingers long after you’ve returned to solid ground.

It took me 5 years in China to finally make my way to this bridge! I have two words “Breathe takung” Well it can be 1 word but my point is, that the bridge is amazing and it does take your breath away, literally! I felt my heart beating so fast, people walking next to the white part to avoid looking down. There is also bungee jumping, which is so cool and I wanted to do but I was scared. #localguides #instatravel #instatravel

The Zhangjiajie Glass Bridge

The bridge is really long, and anyone who walks across it will definitely feel a thrill. The glass is very clear, but since it just rained, there were puddles that made it hard to take clear photos. However, our eyes could see everything clearly, and it was quite thrilling. Once you cross, there is another short glass balcony (be careful of slipping when it rains). You don't need to wear shoe covers. After passing through, you can play VR balloon, which is a lot of fun and in 3D. It's a must-try. There are also zip lines and boat rides, but we didn't try them. Just watching others was fun enough.

Compared to Changsha, I prefer Zhangjiajie, this low-key summer resort canyon

If you come to Zhangjiajie, why not spend half a day in this low-key summer resort canyon. Along the way, streams and lakes accompany each other, strange rocks and caves are alongside, and peaks and valleys are connected. Even in the hot summer, this place remains cool and pleasant.

The Grand Canyon is the most worthwhile scenic spot in Zhangjiajie

I just discovered that Zhangjiajie has such a beautiful place‼️ Clear green lake water, quiet and cool canyon This place is perfect for bringing family and friends to escape the summer heat and have fun~ 📍Zhangjiajie Grand Canyon Scenic Area There is a city bus from the city to the Grand Canyon, 30 yuan per person, and you can take the return bus at Parking Lot No. 1 by scanning the code. 🎫Tickets: Line A 50 yuan: Visitor Center - Yixiantian - Rainbow Square - Shen Gui Tan Xi - Yilian Youmeng - Momo Cave - Shenquan Lake Boat Tour - Scenic Area Lower Exit - Zhangjiajie Grand Canyon Tourist Distribution Center (This route is a full hike, requiring walking down a steep mountain road and then hiking through the canyon scenery) Line B 178 yuan: Visitor Center - Glass Bridge - Bridge East Experience Center - Glass Walkway - Sightseeing Elevator - Rainbow Square - Shen Gui Tan Xi - Yilian Youmeng - Momo Cave - Shenquan Lake Boat Tour - Scenic Area Lower Exit - Zhangjiajie Grand Canyon Tourist Distribution Center We took Line B, starting from the Glass Bridge and playing all the way to the bottom of the valley. The whole journey was very relaxed, and the projects were very exciting and interesting! ✅Recommended Activities 1️⃣Glass Bridge The glass bridge built between the canyons holds ten "world's best" titles, with a total length of 430 meters and a height of 300 meters. Seeing it with your own eyes is really shocking, walking on it is particularly thrilling, and you can overlook the entire canyon scenery. 2️⃣High-altitude Zipline I really recommend trying it once! It's not as fast as you might imagine, even I, who is very afraid of heights, wasn't scared~ The view is wide, and you can enjoy the canyon scenery, it's worth experiencing. 3️⃣Yixiantian Slide This is unanimously considered the most fun project by my friends! Because you don't have to walk, you can slide all the way to the bottom of the valley, which is simply a blessing for lazy people, and you can control the speed yourself, so you don't have to worry about it being too thrilling! 4️⃣Rainbow Lake Boat Tour This lake is the most stunning part of the entire canyon! When the sunlight shines directly, the whole lake looks like a piece of jade, and there are waterfalls cascading down from the mountains beside it. Taking a boat across the sparkling lake is like traveling in a painting~ 🎬Photo Tips ❶There are many photo spots along the canyon, such as Rainbow Lake, Shen Gui Tan Xi, Yilian Youmeng... The best lighting is from morning to around 2 pm, when the entire lake surface is not blocked by the shadows of the mountains. ❷It is recommended to wear light-colored and simple clothes to capture the refreshing summer feeling. Gray or overly fancy clothes are difficult to stand out from the background. ❸Travel light, there are several supply points in the scenic area where you can buy water. There are food stalls opposite the Glass Bridge and at the Rainbow Lake dock. However, remember to prepare water before hiking into the canyon, as there are no places to buy water for several kilometers inside.

Walk on Glass Above China's Grand Canyon

⛰️ One of the longest glass bridges in the world, the Zhangjiajie glass bridge, or footpath, was definitely something unlike anything I have ever seen before. Built between two mountain cliffs, the bridge overlooks a beautiful canyon. While it may be crowded, there is still plenty of space and opportunities to get the perfect photo! 👟 Before you go on the bridge, you'll have to put on shoe covers! This protects the glass from getting scuffed by shoes. The shoe covers are included in the ticket price and will be handed to you as you enter the top of the mountain. 🧗🏻♀️ Once you've walked the bridge and taken in the scenery, you have endless activities at your fingertips. Most famously, the bridge holds the world's highest bungee jump, stationed at a whopping 285 meters tall. If that's a little too hard core for you, there is also the option to rock climb, zip line, or experience a one of a kind VR journey. Once you're done up top, you can either simply climb down the mountain, or take a slide down, which brings you through a scenic route filled with trees and laughter from the fun you'll have. 🛶 Once you've completed your activities up top, spend some time down in the canyon. Here you can take a boat tour, where you can sit and relax while taking in the natural beauty around you. You can see stunning waterfalls and wildlife as the water carries you through the mountains. #zhangjiajietravel #trip #familyfun #zhangjiajie #zhangjiajiemagic #zhangjiajieglassbridge #glassbridge #china #chinatravel #chinatrip

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! #nationalpark #glassbridge #grandcanyon
