First Bridge Under Heaven walk among Yuanjiajie Avatar Mountains
Zhangjiajie · China
About this experience
At Yuanjiajie, sandstone pillars rise from the forest and, when mist drifts through, look like floating mountains, a landscape linked in the public mind with the film Avatar. The First Bridge Under Heaven is a natural span between two rock masses, with pillars and wooded depths opening out on every side.
Wear sturdy, comfortable shoes, bring a light waterproof for rain or mist, and be patient with the crowds at the viewpoints.
