Zhangjiajie is one of those places that photos and social media just can’t really do it justice. While it’s not the easiest destination to plan for, with a little effort, you can explore it fully without needing to hire a guide. That’s why I’ve created this 20-page itinerary, packed with everything I learned during my trip and answers to the most common questions I get asked. This extensive guide includes best areas to stay, best routes to take, when to purchase your tickets, tips to maximize your time at each location, for…

• Zhangjiajie National Forest Park
• Tianmen Shan
• Zhangjiajie Grand Canyon
• 72 Qilou
• Furong Ancient Town
• Fenghuang Ancient Town

I hope it helps you plan an unforgettable adventure!
