What most people don't know is that much of Pandora's landscape was modeled after a real place - Zhangjiajie in the Hunan province of China.

China has very well preserved Landscapes and old buildings, although most of them have been rebuilt recently and some were not even part of Chinese ancient history as they claim, but it is still good to see that they are funding such projects to build places where people can come for recreation. I have been living in Nanjing for last 3 years, there are lots of old buildings even within the modern skyscrapers which are definitely a sight to see

The most notable geographic features of the park are the pillar-like formations that are seen throughout the park. Although resembling karst terrain, this area is not underlain by limestones and is not the product of chemical dissolution, which is characteristic of limestone karst. They are the result of many years of physical, rather than chemical, erosion. Much of the weathering which forms these pillars are the result of expanding ice in the winter and the plants which grow on them. The weather is moist year round, and as a result, the foliage is very dense. The weathered material is carried away primarily by streams. These formations are a distinct hallmark of Chinese landscape, and can be found in many ancient Chinese paintings.
