About
Zhangshiyan, a third-batch National Park of China (1994), lies in Zanhuang County, Shijiazhuang, Hebei, in the central Taihang range about 100 km from Shijiazhuang: 120 km², with the main peak Huang’annao at 1,774 m.
Its signature sight is a huge natural echo wall. The Zhangshiyan landform named after it is counted with the Danxia and Zhangjiajie landforms as one of China’s three great sandstone tourist landforms.
It is in the third batch of national parks of China (national scenic areas) named by the State Council in 1994.
Travel tips
About 2 hours in all from Shijiazhuang, first to Zanhuang and then west into the mountains. A day is enough for one or two valleys. Spring and autumn suit best; summer is rainy and snow can close the hills in winter. The paths between the cliffs are steep with many steps, so wear shoes with good grip.
