Tianmen Mountain National Forest Park
Tianmen Mountain National Forest Park is named after the natural wonder "Tianmen Cave". When visiting the scenic area, you must take a cableway about 7,500 meters long. You can overlook the Tianmen Avenue winding between the cliffs and the beautiful scenery in the mountains from the cable car. The brave ones can also walk on the glass plank road hanging on the cliff to experience the excitement of walking in the air. Tianmen Mountain National Forest Park is relatively close to Zhangjiajie urban area. The Tianmen Cave in the mountain is a natural through - mountain karst cave. Local people believe that one can reach the Heavenly Palace from here. For ordinary tourists, Tianmen Cave is not open throughout the year. In winter every year, due to snow and icy roads, Tianmen Cave and the Tianmen Avenue (a winding mountain road with 99 turns) leading to Tianmen Cave will be closed. The lower station of the scenic area's large cableway is located in Guanliping, Yongding District, and the upper station is at the top of Tianmen Mountain. In 2020, the scenic area opened a fast cableway. The lower station of the fast cableway is near the Tianmen Mountain entrance, and the upper station is near the Tianmen Cave parking lot. Ancient trees tower to the skies everywhere in Tianmen Mountain National Forest Park, and vines twine around them. The scenic area is divided into several main areas, such as Tianmen Cave, the middle line, the east line, and the west line scenic areas. Tourists can choose different routes and areas to visit according to their preferences and physical strength. The core scenic spot of the middle line is Tianmen Mountain Temple. Near the temple, there is a "Son - seeking Cave". According to folk legends, the Goddess of Children shows her divine power here. People can sincerely make a wish for children. The highlight of the west line is a "glass plank road" about 60 meters long, built on a cliff. The road under your feet is all made of transparent glass. Walking on it, when you see the bottomless valley below, you will be frightened but also feel the joy of walking in the air. Currently, glass plank roads about 60 meters long have also been opened on the east line and Panlong Cliff respectively. There is no accommodation in the scenic area, so you can only finish your tour within one day. Near Tianmen Mountain Temple, there is a "Yingtaowan Restaurant" that provides snacks and fast food. Near the lower station of the Tianmen Mountain cableway, there are shuttle buses to the "Canyon Grand Theater", where you can watch the live - action performance and the magic musical "Tianmen Fox Fairy". This story is adapted from the mythological legend "Liu Hai Cuts Firewood", telling a touching love story between a human and a fox. With the on - site music and lighting effects, and the fascinating scenes such as the huge moon, the transformation of fox spirits, the flying snow all over the sky, and the high - altitude flying bridge, this legendary love story is vividly presented.
