The Grand Canyon is a hidden gem, a verdant chasm carved by millennia of water erosion. As you meander along the winding paths, the sounds of cascading waterfalls and chirping birds serenade you. When you reach the highlight of the visit, the world - famous Glass Bridge, your guide will share fascinating facts about its construction, a marvel of modern engineering that seems to float above the canyon. Suspended 300 meters in the air, the transparent bridge offers heart - stopping views of the abyss below and the majestic peaks surrounding you.

Zhangjiajie: Bailong Elevator, Yuanjiajie, Tianzi Mountain

BaiLong Elevator

Today, ascend to new heights as you meet your guide and driver for an extraordinary journey through the heart of Zhangjiajie National Forest Park. To reach Yuanjiajie, we'll take the Bailong Elevator, an absolute marvel that has rightfully earned its title as the world’s fastest elevator. Standing at a staggering vertical height of 326 meters, it rockets you up the cliff face in a mere 1 minute and 58 seconds. As you ascend, the view unfolds in a spectacular manner. Initially, the elevator rides within a shaft, but in a few seconds, the doors open to a breathtaking panorama. Towering sandstone pillars, like nature's own skyscrapers, stand tall on all sides, seemingly defying gravity. These unique karst formations, crafted over millions of years by the ceaseless forces of erosion, create a sight that is both otherworldly and awe - inspiring.

Yuanjiajie, the inspiration behind Avatar’s floating mountains, is a wonderland of natural beauty. Here, the towering sandstone pillars seem to have been plucked from a fantasy world. The Hallelujah Mountain, also known as the South Pillar of Heaven, stands as a majestic symbol of this place. Its impressive height and unique shape make it the focal point of the area, and it's easy to see why it was the main inspiration for the floating mountains in the movie Avatar. Another highlight is the First Natural Bridge in the World. This natural wonder is a thick slab of rock that defies the odds, spanning across two cliffs to create a bridge high above the valley below. As you walk across it, you can't help but marvel at the power of nature that crafted such a delicate yet sturdy structure.
