Pandora Explorer Zhangjiajie National Forest Park
ZHANGJIAJIE, CHINA
Part of the larger Wulingyuan Scenic and Historic Interest Area UNESCO World Heritage Site, the park features quartz-sandstone pillar-like rock formations that disappear thousands of feet below into thick foliage. One of the pillars was renamed Avatar Hallelujah Mountain in 2010 after the Avatar movie, which used the landscape as inspiration for its Pandora landscape.
