Bailong Elevator

Purchasing tickets for Zhangjiajie National Forest Park through Klook this time was, overall, a simple and convenient process, but there are a few important things I would like to remind fellow travelers about. When booking, you must provide identification document details (such as a Mainland Travel Permit for Hong Kong and Macao Residents or a Mainland Resident Identity Card). You can then pass through the turnstiles directly using your ID upon entry without needing to exchange tickets, which is very convenient. It is worth noting that the morning time slots for the East Gate are in extremely high demand, especially Line B, so it is recommended to buy them as soon as they go on sale. It is also advisable to book Line A at least a week in advance to avoid missing out. Another easily overlooked issue is that Klook can only reserve the entry location and time slot for the first day; entry arrangements for the second day and beyond cannot be booked in advance and must be handled with staff on-site at the scenic area entrance. However, the morning time slot at the East Gate is extremely popular, making it virtually impossible to secure an on-site reservation. Therefore, it is recommended that when booking through Klook, you schedule your first day's entry at the East Gate, and plan to enter the scenic area through the South Gate or other entrances on subsequent days to avoid disrupting your itinerary. East Gate vs. South Gate Entry Experience We entered through both the East Gate and the South Gate, and the experiences were vastly different. The East Gate was overwhelmingly crowded with a mix of domestic and international travelers. Long lines formed at every shuttle bus transfer point, and we had to wait an entire hour just for the Bailong Elevator. Furthermore, attractions such as Tianzi Mountain and Yuanjiajie are at higher elevations, and when foggy, visibility is extremely low. Famous sights like Imperial Brush Peak and Fairy Presenting Flowers were completely invisible, and Tianzi Pavilion was just a blank, white expanse. In contrast, entry through the South Gate was much less crowded. Although Huangshizhai also had some fog, the visibility was much better than at Tianzi Mountain, and we were still able to enjoy the magnificent stone pillar peaks. The scenery along the Golden Whip Stream is pleasant, and there are many wild monkeys roaming around, which is very entertaining. Recommended Visiting Time It is strongly recommended to reserve at least two days for your visit, and preferably three days. The scenery in Zhangjiajie is heavily influenced by the weather. If you encounter foggy conditions while visiting Huangshizhai or Tianzi Mountain, having a third day allows you to adjust your itinerary or head back up the mountain. Attraction Highlights Tianzi Mountain and Yuanjiajie are famous for their high-altitude stone pillar landscapes, but their high elevation makes them prone to fog. Huangshizhai also features magnificent mountain scenery while being relatively easier to access. The Golden Whip Stream is great for a leisurely stroll, where you can see monkeys and giant salamanders, but the entire trail is quite long. If you are traveling with elderly companions, it is recommended to walk just a short section before turning back.

Idegenvezetőnk, Xu Jun’an csodálatos volt, és zökkenőmentessé és felejthetetlenné tette utazásunkat. Bár volt nyelvi akadály, ez egyáltalán nem jelentett problémát, mivel a WeChat-et használtuk fordításra. Hatalmas köszönet ezért a csodálatos élményért.

5/5 – Nagyon ajánlott! Nagyszerű ajánlatot kaptam a Klookon, és a foglalási folyamat teljesen zökkenőmentes volt. A kupon beváltása egyszerű volt, semmi probléma nem adódott a helyszínen. Időt és pénzt is spórolt. Biztosan újra fogok foglalni!

Our guide Xiao Zhang was very helpful, friendly and professional. My wife and I both enjoyed very much.

Zoey was our tour guide on both days. She was very responsive and communicated well throughout the tour. Not only was she notifying and reminding us of the schedule the day before, showing up on time, but also follow up after each day's tour to answer our questions and provided recommendations. She is the best English speaking tour guide we had on our China trip compared to other tour guides. The weather was not great for both days, but she made the best out of it and kept us entertained and positive. Zoey had great energy throughout the two days and was flexible but also was able to maintain time management to keep the tour on schedule. We are lucky to have her as our lead. We would highly recommend that you ask to be on her tour.

Cruising up the Tianzi Mountain Cable Car offered incredible, misty panoramic views of the towering peaks. It’s a wonderfully smooth and scenic ride that saves your legs while delivering top-tier sights. Weather can be unpredictable though.

Nagyon örülök, hogy lefoglaltam ezt a túrát. Felvettek a szállodámból, vizet és egy ingyenes övtáskát is biztosítottak, a kiszolgálás pedig fenomenális volt. Archie csodálatos idegenvezető volt. Nagyon jól vigyázott ránk, és minden meglátogatott helyszínt kiválóan elmagyarázott. Kötetlenül is beszélgettünk, és remek ember, jó volt vele beszélgetni. Nagyon ajánlom ezt a túrát, mert rengeteg élménnyel gazdagodik az ember.

An engineering marvel! Rocketing up the side of a massive sheer cliff in a transparent glass elevator gives you heart-pounding, jaw-dropping views of the canyon below. Super fast and exhilarating! Rep reached out on WhatsApp and confirmed whether going up/down and entry was seamless. excellent booking experience.

Csodálatos utunk és élményünk volt. Kiscsoportos túra, mégis privátnak érződött, kedves és kellemes útitársakkal. A közlekedési eszközök is nagyon tiszták és kényelmesek voltak. Nagyon megérte ez a túra, sok időt spóroltunk, és rengeteg helyet meglátogattunk. Különösen a túravezetőnk, Zhang Fangfang volt nagyon kedves és sokat segített nekünk. Mindent elintézett nekünk, étteremajánlatokat adott, segített megszervezni a vasútállomásra való utazásunkat, és sok képet is készített rólam és a férjemről. Nagyon megérte! 👍👍
