You can either hike the 999 Steps or you can take another escalator and (option: cost 32 RMB) get to the bottom of the steps of Tianmen Mountain. This place is not only a common attraction in Zhangjiajie but also a place that attracts special people such as Dawazi from Xinjiang province, who tightrope walked between the two mountain.

For the evening, the outdoor Fox Lady Show is recommended. Originating from the traditional Chinese myth and the folk tale “Love between Wood Cutter and Fox,” it is known as the world’s most beautiful real scene musical drama with the high mountains and deep valleys in the stage background. The musical drama integrates the elements of folk music and modern lighting.
