Subjects : Zhangjiajie Nature Park is perhaps one of the most spectacular areas in China; here you will find huge rock pillars created by erosion, with views that sometimes resemble the flying mountains of "Avatar". It is also possible to photograph the fauna of the park, including macaques and many species of birds.

Recommended equipment : Wide angle, standard zoom, telephoto zoom, tripod.

Best months : All year round; Only the periods that coincide with Chinese holidays, when the park becomes very crowded, should be avoided.

How to get there : The main entrance is in Wulingyuan; Once inside, you can tour the park with a network of shuttle buses and cable cars. There are routes for all tastes: from the most classic and touristy points, accessible effortlessly by anyone (and very crowded) to well-maintained paths but with considerable differences in height, narrow passages and continuous climbs, decidedly quieter and less traveled.

Visits : Admission is subject to a fee; The ticket costs about the equivalent of 60 euros, but it is valid for four days and allows unlimited use of shuttle buses and cable cars. The park opens from 7 am to 6 pm (but it is always better to check the updated hours); for those who want to be in the best spots at sunrise and sunset it is necessary to stay in one of the few hotels inside the park (I found myself very well at the YOLO hotel, which also gives support in buying the ticket; the cost of the rooms is very low).
