Zhangjiajie
Zhangjiajie · 黄龙洞
Huanglong Cave Stalactites, a path, and a boat on an underground river in places. It is the rainy-day sight that is actually underground. It is not the national park’s pillars.
Natural scenery 自然风景
Go in with modest expectations of silence. The geology is real and the lighting is theatrical.
Nature, specifically a cave. Not a hike. Mind the wet stone.
Getting there
In the Wulingyuan area, a short ride from town. Pair it with a foggy morning or with Baofeng Lake, not with a rim hike you will be too tired to enjoy.
Staying nearby
Wulingyuan. The cave is an hour or two, then you are back for noodles.

Cave ticket
How to get in Buy at the cave or its official account. Holidays are the days to book ahead. The path is damp and sometimes slippery. A guided group is the default. You will hear a soundtrack. It is a separate ticket from the forest park.
