Yangjiajie Stone Peak Wall is a great wonder. It is a collection of dozens of stone walls that stand relatively parallel within Yangjiajie Scenic Spot, with varying heights and grandeur, magnificent and magnificent, and very unique. According to research, the stone peak wall landscape of Yangjiajie was formed about 380 million years ago.  

Formed by the cutting and differentiation of platforms, tetragonum-type mountain,  the stone-peak walls are distributed in a long strip shape. Its extension direction is controlled by structural joints, with peaks and walls on the side. Most of them have flat roofs and pines on the top.

"Wulingyuan National Scenic Area is as great as the Great Wall!" In 2016, Simon Winchester, a famous American journalist, wrote an article in the New York Times praising Zhangjiajie, inspired by the stone-peak wall of Yangjiajie.

Yangjiajie Stone-peak Wall is an important component of the "Zhangjiajie Landform" scenery. Its formation predates the common stone pillars in Tianzi Mountain, Yuanjiajie, and Huangshi Village scenic spots. The stone-peak wall boasts extremely high scientific, ecological, and aesthetic value. A single stone wall is not uncommon in sandstone landforms, but it is rare for such a tall group of stone-peak walls in Yangjiajie Scenic Spot to be fully preserved. Its scale and beauty are out of print globally.
