重點在天門洞

纜車很震撼,但人潮偏多,排隊時間稍長。天門洞本身很壯觀,其它步道就普通一些。

Long but worth it

The cable car ride alone is worth the visit—long, scenic, and dramatic. The 999 steps were tiring but rewarding. Weather was clear, so views were excellent.

Trip highlight

One of the highlights of our Zhangjiajie trip. Go early for the best lighting and fewer people.
