Tianmen Mountain National Forest Park




Tianmen Mountain is the highest mountain in Zhangjiajie. It is located 8km from Zhangjiajie city which means it takes only about 15 minutes by driving vehicle. The Tianmen Mountain highlights a great focal spot namely Tianmen Cave, which means the door to the heaven. The well preserved original forest can lead the tourists to the incredible traveling experiences. In addition, the comparative plat mountain top and the natural bonsai in everywhere are great for splendid picture. You will agree that this is the most beautiful flower garden in the sky and the fairy land of boundary of heaven.

Here I would like to highlight the main attractions in Tianmen Mountain. Have a note and check it out.

Tianmen Cave. It is the natural cave with the highest elevation in the world. It was formed from the natural water erosion. The cave in the Tianmen Mountain is actually a big hole. The hole was so popular so that there have been many events held in this cave. For example, in 1999, there are 3 airplanes flew through it in an acrobatic show. The live television event drew about 800 million people world wide at that time. It is such unique sight under heaven.

Tianmen Mountain Cableway. The second attraction I would like to highlight is about its cableway. Believe it or not, it is the longest passenger cableway in the world with the length of 7200 meters and a height gap of 1277 meters. It will surely give you and your family such unforgettable traveling experiences in your entire life.

Tongtian Avenue (Avenue toward heaven). The next spot in Tianmen Mountain is Tongtian Avenue. It has about 99 turns symbolizing that the Chinese heaven has 9 palaces. It has incredible natural views to enjoy. Prepare your camera and take as many beautiful photographs as you can!

Tianmen Mountain
Temple. Another attraction is sacred one, the Tianmen Mountain Temple. It was built in the Tang Dynasty as the center of Buddhism in the western Hunan. The architecture adopts the original style of the Qing Dynasty architecture. The famous classical houses at home deserve it.

Tianmen Mountain
Academy. It was built in 1303, the seventh year of the Dade Period in Yuan Dynasty. It is the cultural holy place of Tianmen Mountain.
