HOW TO: Zhangjiajie in 72 Hours | The Travel Intern
Last week, we promised y’all that we’d give y’all a detailed breakdown of how to scale Zhangjiajie, so here it is! First of all, it’s impossible to spend only one or two days in ZJJ. So PLEASE keep that in mind - At least three days (72 hours like in this video) or more.
Chloe’s gonna share some of the tips and tricks the team gathered to handling ZJJ like a frickin’ pro.
1. Explore two parts of ZJJ - Zhangjiajie City, Wulingyuan District (belonging to Zhangjiajie National Park).
2. Be mentally and physically prepared for massive crowds and A LOT of walking.
3. Show off your greatest poses and get creative for photos!!!! (Safety is sexy though, remember.)
4. Bring your student IDs to get discounts! Some even up to 50%.
5. Get ready to spend hours walking through different sites, and note that some places (like Tianzishan) are pretty much a one-way route, so there’s no reversing once you’ve entered the place.
6. Have a great, great time.
01:32 - Zhangjiajie Glass Bridge
This is where Tip #2 comes into FULL PLAY.*IMPT: Do note that you are not allowed to bring things like selfie sticks, cameras (except mobile phones), water bottles, big bags, tripods, basically clunky stuff onto the glass bridge. And no drones are allowed to be flown around the area!
02:07 - Zhangjiajie Grand Canyon
You have to walk through this Grand Canyon right after you get down from the glass bridge.
03:28 - Bailong Elevator
*IMPT: In order to leave the mountainous regions of ZJJ National Park, you’ve got to take the Bailong Elevator, especially if you want to head to Baofeng Lake to end off the day and vice versa.
04:10 - Baofeng Lake
04:48 - Tianzi Mountain
We’re now in Zhangjiajie City! Not in the National Park anymore.
*Route 1 vs Route 2 - This is important, it’s either you wanna walk up 999 (Renald claims it’s less than 999 steps) steps or you wanna walk down the 999 steps.
If you haven’t already checked it out, here’s our full itinerary: thetravelintern.com/central-c...
We hope you get to experience the BESTEST of ZJJ, just like how we did! :’-)

It really was nerve wracking! But still super funn
Great detail and amazing editing. I am planning a trip to Zhangjiajie/Wulingyuan. Is there a way I can contact you guys for more details? My plan is to spend about 4-5days there, traveling solo, I want to hit all the major spots including Avatar Mountain Bungee Jump Glass Sky Bridge Glass Bottom Cliffside Path Tianmen Cave Yellow Dragon Cave I would like to know the best route and/or sequence to achieve all these goals. I am myself fly drones (Mavic Pro 2), shoot with sony a7riii and a6500. Whats the best spot to take off with the drone and were there regulations?

Hi there, Firstly, check out our very detailed itinerary here: thetravelintern.com/central-china-itinerary-things-to-do-wuhan-changsha-zhangjiajie/ You can drop a comment there too if there's anything you'd like to ask about the article in particular. Next, what you have to note about the spots you want to go to is that they are not in the same area of ZJJ. The avatar mountain and the glass sky bridge in itself are not near each other at all. And the glass sky bridge's tour takes a good half a day, not factoring in transport. Where we stayed was right outside the national park, so it was convenient for us to head into the park (also listed in article link above). We flew the Mavic Pro 2 as well, and there was no problem flying around ZJJ, as well as Wuhan and Changsha. After all, DJI was made in China! There's no best spot, just find emptier spots to take off and land because A LOT of people are around ZJJ. You just need to check if it's an okay flyzone or no-fly zone. And get your drone registered in China - it's free!
awesome video. what month was this?
