Hiking in Yaozizhai is really a lot of fun: the ecological environment at this summit is outstanding, possessing an abundance of ancient trees, some more than 1000 years old. What's more, scores of birds nest in these trees. Now, if a bird egg just happens to tumble down right on your head, please don lose your temper, consider it a kind of natural joy , unavailable in many other tourist spots, right ?

    In 1982, notable literary figure, Shen Congwen .wrote a poem, which reads:  Yaozi Village is dangerous; Golden Whip Stream appears deep and serene. When you ascend Yellow Stone Village, all other mountains are inferior.Yaozi Village is famous for its dangerous precipices and cliffs; even the Yaozi, cannot fly beyond it, hence the name Yaozi Village. Situated in the northeast quadrant of the Zhangjiajie National Forest Park, and rising 1098 meters above sea level, Yaozi Village stands prominently alongside Huangshi Village and Yangjiajie. These three lofty platforms are situated in triangular fashion. Because it appears as a huge kidney, Yaozi Village was formerly named Kidney Village, and was first opened to tourists in the 1980s. It was closed for nearly a dozen years out of concern for environmental protection, but then reopened to welcome visitors once again on September 26, 2003.
