Heavenly Gate Mountain can stay in Zhangjiajie City, eat within Zhangjiajie City. I think it has some spiciness, just a bit. Stayed at Hunlun Spring City district and found to be quite convenient compared to Heavenly Gate Mountain. Recommended trying the stone pot fish with rice noodles from Huxiang Restaurant at Hunlun Spring - not very spicy! For those who like some spiciness, I recommend three pots, chili and stir-fried beef strips etc.!
