China’s Avatar Mountains: The Magic of Zhangjiajie

#discoverchina Zhangjiajie, located in the northwest of Hunan Province, China, is famous for its towering peaks and deep valleys. It is home to China's first national forest park. The mountain peaks here rise sharply like they were carved by blades, often shrouded in mist, creating a fairyland-like atmosphere that is especially stunning. The floating mountains in the movie Avatar were inspired by this very landscape. Visiting Zhangjiajie feels like stepping into an isolated natural kingdom—standing atop the peaks and gazing out over the sea of mountains is a truly refreshing and awe-inspiring experience, naturally attracting countless visitors.
