Yangjiajie is an important tourist destination in the UNESCO World Heritage Site Wulingyuan Scenic and Historic Interest Area, Zhangjiajie, Hunan province. It makes itself stand out due to about a dozen of paralleling giant and imposing stone walls with a history of nearly 380 million years, which are like naturally-formed great walls with different altitudes.
Compared with other scenic spots in Zhangjiajie, the 34-square-kilometer Yangjiajie is like a virgin land and draws less attention due to its steep mountains and inconvenient transportation. Many visitors to Yangjiajie are self-guided ones and outdoor tour fans.
