In 2005, Yellow Dragon Cave was voted "China's Most Beautiful Tourist Cave." Inside, lights glow softly and stalagmites stand in dense clusters like ancient trees with gnarled roots. There are caves within caves and rivers within caves—nothing is too strange to exist—making it truly a "subterranean magic palace." Famous sights inside include the Dinghai Shenzhen (Sea-Calming Needle) stalagmite, which is insured for ¥100 million, the Xiangshui River, the Dragon King's Gathering Hall, the Heavenly Spring, and Tianzhu Street.

Yuanjiajie is Zhangjiajie's core landscape and a premium touring route. Its scenery is known for being majestic, bizarre, precipitous, and steep. Along the more than ten-li mountain circuit, the views are countless.
