Golden Whip Brook
Stroll along the breathtaking Golden Whip Stream Canyon, known as one of the top ten scenic wonders of Zhangjiajie. Flowing west to east through the National Forest Park, the stream is flanked by dramatic cliffs and lush forests, creating a serene and picturesque landscape. Playful wildlife, ancient and exotic trees, and leisurely swimming fish add to the peaceful ambiance. Golden Whip Stream is famed for its poetic saying: “three steps, one view; ten steps, one peak,” with over 3,000 unique peaks and 800 winding streams. Get off at Shuiraosimen Station and walk toward the stream, often praised as one of the most beautiful canyons in the world. Enjoy the fresh air and crystal-clear water as you explore 1.5 to 2 kilometers along the stream before heading back.
BaiLong Elevator
It is the world’s tallest outdoor elevator, rising 335 meters (1,099 feet) up a cliff face. Made of a 154-meter (505-foot) shaft inside the mountain and a 172-meter (564-foot) glass lift on the outside, it offers stunning views as you ascend. Listed in the Guinness World Records™, this engineering marvel connects key sites like Yuanjiajie, Golden Whip Stream, and the First Bridge under Heaven—making it easier than ever to explore Zhangjiajie's breathtaking landscapes.
It is located in the northern area of Zhangjiajie National Forest Park and is renowned as the filming inspiration for the floating “Hallelujah Mountains” in James Cameron’s Avatar. This magical landscape features towering sandstone pillars, lush vegetation, and dramatic cliffs that seem to rise straight from the earth. Visitors can enjoy panoramic views from various observation decks, including the famous "First Bridge Under Heaven."
