View the "Love of Wood and Stone," a unique geological formation where a tree and rock appear intertwined.
Reach Gongji Terrace for panoramic views of Zhangjiajie city spread below like a miniature landscape.
Descend via the world's longest mountain escalator system, passing through 7 sections inside the mountain.
