Amazing mountain forest park. Already the cable car drive from the city up to the mountain is breathtaking and is then even topped by cliff closed path walks.Full review by 971danielk971

This is a must do when you are in Zhangjiajie. Depending on how big your group is and how much you want to cover, you may need half a day or a big part of a day. It is not just about the hole in th…Full review by mosto

We are just back from a 10 days trip to Very Beautiful Hokkaido. Yes, you could take the return via a cable car from Tianmen Mountain - but you probably need to take a reverse route / back track to get back to the cable car station. Remember, the cable car station is not here, but the other side of the mountain. Book your tickets in advance from the starting point. It may be troublesome & very tiring to backtrack, if you already walk the 999 steps down Tianmen Mountain, now its another 999 steps up the very steep mountain, unless again, you booked the lifts & rides all at the same time. We in our 60's could not manage these climbs, let alone some members in the late 70's. But to take in the views, stopping for photography, up close with the waterfalls & the faces of the tourist who managed these challenging climbs, the tendency of tiredness were all forgotten., when victory of achievement of some sort - to reaching the top of the climb. Enjoy but remember check very carefully & book in advance.

Q:
I will be visiting Tianmen mountain during morning time - taking the cable car up and escalator down. Which loop on the top do you recommend doing first: EAST or WEST? What's the difference - Is one more scenic than the other?

The most impressive walk is what I believe they call the West Walk. Its to the right of the cable car once you get to the top; going this way takes you counter-clockwise around the …

The most impressive walk is what I believe they call the West Walk. Its to the right of the cable car once you get to the top; going this way takes you counter-clockwise around the mountain. Be sure to take its glass walkway on this side after which you go down some stairs then you go along the backside of the mountain with stunning mountain and valley scenery that reminds me of Hawaii believe it or not. You'll have to buy a separate ticket for the glass walkway but its worth it. Remember not to look down for the first 5 or 6 steps so the mind becomes convinced that its solid under your feet, then you can look down and can handle it (I'm afraid of heights). Its best to walk all the way around the mountain on the outside hanging over the cliffs as much as you can if you have the time. If you have to cut your trip short, walk up at least to the start of the long bridge, then you can leave.
