The pillar-like formations of Wulingyuan in Zhangjiajie National Forest Park look appear to float in the clouds— reminiscent of the Hollywood blockbuster Avatar — on Sunday morning.

The park in Zhangjiajie, Hunan province, is a world natural heritage site, a global geopark and China's first national forest park.

Similar floating pillars appeared in the film Avatar in 2010, which attracted more visitors from around the world.

Wulingyuan, which features a spectacular landscape of quartz sandstone peaks and forest, has provided settings for many films and TV series.
