Zhangjiajie is a stunning national park located in the Hunan Province of China, known for its towering sandstone pillars and breathtaking natural beauty.

The park also features the world's longest and highest glass bridge, offering an exhilarating walk above the breathtaking landscape.
In addition to its natural wonders, Zhangjiajie is home to significant cultural sites, including historical towns and ethnic minority villages, which provide insight into the rich cultural heritage of the region.
