If you prefer not to walk on the bridge, you can take another route to visit the area.

Relax in a Boat on Baofeng Lake (1 Hour)

Experience the Longest Cableway and Enjoy Views from Tianmen Mountain (4½ Hours)

Tianmen Mountain is regarded as the 'soul' of Zhangjiajie and is its highest mountain. The views include graceful ancient trees, karst hillocks, and long roads that are carved from the sides of the cliffs. The cable car ride takes 30 minutes from the city center to the mountaintop and it is the longest cableway in the world.

Tianmen Cave (meaning 'Heaven's Gate') is a 30-meter-high hole that was formed naturally in the mountain and looks like a doorway. It is well-known for being glided through by world-class stuntmen in wingsuits. To reach the hole, you can climb for about half an hour up the 'Stairway to Heaven'.

After the trip, we will transfer you to the airport and wave goodbye.
