Zhangjiajie Grand Canyon is a secluded stream. Along the stream is a wooden walk, Zhangjiajie Grand Canyon not only has the traditional beautiful natural scenery, but also has the historical and cultural landscape of three dynasties and several generations, such as the ancient battlefield of "thousand people's grave" recording the fierce battle between Li Zicheng and Wu Sangui, the bandit cave reflecting the historical characteristics of Western Hunan, and the "Southern red flag canal" witnessing the early liberation of Western Hunan people digging between the cliffs through the labor of heaven.

In the gorge, the vegetation is luxuriant, the air is fresh, cool and comfortable, and the stream is filled with a layer of mist. It's like coming to a paradise, which makes people worry.

During this period, the vegetation is luxuriant, the animals are various, the monkeys are exuberant, the birds are contending, and the mandarin ducks are playing in the water. The unique 600 meter long nokeli entertainment slide in the valley can relieve tourists' travel fatigue. The world's tallest and longest glass bridge - Zhangjiajie Grand Canyon glass bridge is here, and you can enjoy the thrill of extreme bungee jumping.

Zhangjiajie Grand Canyon is a collection of mountains, water, caves and lakes, known as the "Zhangjiajie landform Museum"! The plank road in the gorge stretches for several miles, and waterfalls and springs are everywhere along the way. The stream is filled with mist all the year round, just like a paradise.

In the last section of the canyon, there is a small reservoir built by a power station downstream. You need to go out by boat. You can see wild ducks wading in the water and egrets skimming over the water from time to time Inadvertently, the canyon has finished, and the exit is under the road.

It takes more than 2 hours to visit the Grand Canyon. The canyon is narrow and takes a long time to walk. It needs people with good physical strength.

Main attractions

Thin strip of sky

Located at the entrance of Zhangjiajie Grand Canyon, it is a cliff. Yixiantian gorge, also known as the west gate, is like a gate opened by Zhangjiajie Grand Canyon. Welcome to our party.

However, although the gate is very large and high, it is very narrow, which gives visitors the opportunity to experience the cliff of the canyon from zero distance. Three thousand green peaks and eight hundred glazed waters.

This is the praise of Zhangjiajie.

When visiting other scenic spots in Zhangjiajie, most of them just look at the strange mountains and waters in Zhangjiajie from a distance, without the opportunity of close experience and touch.

In a day, we can get close contact with the magical landscape of Zhangjiajie.

From the position of yixiantian to the bottom of the canyon, the walking path is more than 700 meters, and the vertical elevation difference is more than 300 meters

.

TIANTI plank road

After a day, it's TIANTI plank road. The slope of this section is very large, and the plank of plank road is very narrow. It extends down in turn, just like a TIANTI, to a charming fairyland.

We call it the ladder path. Ladies and gentlemen, the ladder is steep and there are many people. Please slow down and pay attention to safety!

Then, about 3 minutes later, you can get a panoramic view of the sky. Standing here, looking down, you can overlook the sky.

Tripod platform

After the TIANTI plank road, what you see is a three-level folding, all the way down the corridor platform, which is breathtaking and exciting. You can stay on the platform for a short time, and then continue the next journey.

Wu Wangpo

After coming here, the precipice in front of us gradually widened, and the angle of vision gradually enlarged.

From wuwangpo, you can see the whole picture of the opposite cliff, from the top of the mountain to the bottom of the valley. Behind the cliff opposite is the famous wuwangpo village.

It is said that Li Zicheng, with the aura of Dashun emperor, defeated Beijing, went to the Qinling Mountains, crossed the Yellow River and the Yangtze River, and went all the way south to Xiangxi. Finally, he was unable to return to heaven. He was defeated and retired. He converted to Buddhism at Jiashan Temple in Shimen County, Changde City, which is close to Zhangjiajie City.

Wu Wangpo village, opposite, is one of the ancient battlefields where Wu Sangui, who is said to be "red with the crown", pursued and killed Li Zicheng's uprising army and fought a decisive battle with the uprising army.

It is said that Wu Sangui defeated Li Zicheng's rebel army and killed thousands of people. It is one of the "vicious battles" in Wu Sangui's life.

According to the legend of this period of history, the descendants of the local Tujia people named the village "wuwangpo".

Wu Wangpo village is also called Wu Wupo. This "death" is "the death of death". It means that although Wu Sangui, after winning the war, was appointed as "king of Pingxi" in Yunnan, he finally died in the "San Francisco rebellion". In the eyes of the local people, the cause and turning point of the destruction is here, in wuwangpo.

Therefore, Wu Wangpo has the deductive element of the name of "Wu Wupo".

Cracks in stone wall

Standing here, on the left side of the trail, a huge stone wall stands tall. Among the stone walls, a large crack divides the stone wall in two, which is magnificent.

During the Devonian period 38000 years ago, the crust of Wulingyuan scenic spot and its surrounding areas declined, and the sea water immersed into it, forming a vast ocean.

A large amount of loose and fine clastic materials are continuously washed from the nearby land by running water. Along with the silicate in the sea water, they are precipitated, cemented and compacted to form quartz sandstone.

In the Permian period, 285 million years ago, argillaceous limestone coal seams were formed on top of the sandstone layer, which covered the sandstone layer.

At the end of the Triassic 200 million years ago, the Wulingyuan scenic area and its surrounding areas experienced another strong crustal movement, that is, orogeny, which led to folds and fractures in the whole stratum, forming mountains, rising and exposing the surface.

After hundreds of millions of years of water erosion, cutting and joint development, it has formed this kind of natural scenery with thousands of peaks and thousands of stones.

The stone wall on the left side of the trail and the huge crack on the stone wall are formed in this way.

According to the scientific detection, the cracks on the stone wall are still increasing slowly, but the speed is very slow. It takes 10000 years for the cracks to completely divide the stone wall into two and finally form two completely independent stone peaks.

Family portraits

Look at the opposite mountain from here. You can see three high and low scattered peaks. Even up, it's like a family of three standing together. Welcome to Zhangjiajie Grand Canyon for sightseeing.

We call it family photo. Among the three peaks, the highest one is father, the shortest one is child, and the middle one is mother.

Women sing and men follow

This is a huge flying stone, standing in front of us, like a powerful Tujia man. We don't know where he came from. We only know that he followed a stone inlaid on the cliff on the right.

Let's take a serious look. Does this big stone inlaid on the cliff look like a woman's head. We connect these two stones and call them "women sing and men follow".

Millennium old rattan

Friends who have visited the Liuqi Pavilion of Huangshizhai in Zhangjiajie National Forest Park know that there are "Liuqi" in Zhangjiajie, which are mountain wonders, water wonders, stone wonders, cloud wonders, animal wonders and plant wonders. In our Zhangjiajie Grand Canyon Scenic Spot, you will enjoy and feel the "six wonders" of Zhangjiajie in an all-round way, that is, the six strange things of Zhangjiajie are well displayed in Zhangjiajie Grand Canyon.

Please turn around and look at the stone wall on the left again. You will find that the branches of a thousand year old vine almost cover most of the stone wall.

Through our accurate measurement, the diameter of the main stem of Guteng is 38
