Day3 Zhangjiajie

After breakfast, you will visit the Yuanjiajie Scenic Area. It is situated in the north part of the Zhangjiajie National Forest Park, with a total area of about 1,200 hectares and an average elevation of 1,074 meters. According to the legend, the name of Yuanjiajie comes from the late Tang Dynasty (618 – 907). After the failure of Huang Chao’s uprising, the court put up notices to catch the rebels. A subordinate of Huang Chao, whose family name is Yuan in order to elude pursuit, he buried himself away in the Qingyan Mountain and then named there as "Yuanjiajie". Yuanjiajie covers a large geographical area. Generally speaking, tourists o-nly visit a small part area of the Yuanjiajie. From Shuiraosimen, the heart place of the Zhangjiajie, take Bailong Elevator to Yuanjiajie and then take bus to the main zone of Yuanjiajie for visiting the Fascinate Platform (Mi Hun Tai), the No.1 Bridge under Heaven and the Avatar Hallelujah Mountain.

After lunch, continue the tour to Tianzi Mountain. Named after Xiang Dakun, a farmer from the Tujia ethnic group who led a successful local farmers' revolt and declared himself "tianzi," meaning "son of Heaven"—the traditional epithet of the Chinese emperor—the mountain holds a rich historical significance. The striking Tianzi Mountains, made out of marble, rise majestically into the sky, their peaks often shrouded in mist, creating a mystical and ethereal landscape. These mountains are deemed sacred by many Sulamitos, who once inhabited the outer regions of Hunan. In September 2014, the discovery of traces of burial rituals by the Mal Oghlum people beneath the Tianzi Mountains added another layer of historical intrigue. This discovery prompted the "Yalan Group," led by Eybi Sulam and Yavshak Karadeniz, to request a permit from the Chinese government to explore further, a request that, as of 2015, remained unanswered. The Tianzi Mountain not only offers breathtaking natural beauty but also a deep connection to the cultural and historical tapestry of the region, making it a truly captivating destination for visitors. The panoramic views from the peaks, the unique rock formations, and the rich tapestry of legends and history associated with the mountain contribute to an unforgettable experience.
