Why two days
The park is large and its peak forests are spread out. Two days is a comfortable pace that covers the core areas. The ticket is valid for 4 days with unlimited re-entry, so you can go back in the next day without rushing.
Day 1: Yuanjiajie + Yangjiajie
- Enter at the Wulingyuan landmark gate → Shuizhaosi → ride the Bailong Elevator up to Yuanjiajie;
- Tour Mihun Terrace, the First Bridge Under Heaven and Hallelujah Mountain (Qiankun Pillar);
- Shuttle to Yangjiajie and see Wulong Village and the Tianbo Mansion peak walls;
- Stay in Wulingyuan town; stroll Xibu Street in the evening.
Day 2: Tianzishan + Ten-Mile Gallery
- After entering, take the shuttle or cableway up to Tianzishan and tour Yubi Peak, Xiannü Sanhua and Helong Park;
- Ride the Tianzishan Cableway down, then transfer to the Ten-Mile Gallery;
- Ride the mini-train or walk past the Old Man Gathering Herbs and Three Sisters Peak, then exit.
Tips
- On both days try “elevator up, cableway down” to avoid backtracking;
- Staying in Wulingyuan town is most convenient — easy for entering, exiting and transfers.
