A mountain peak in China's Hunan province, which inspired Golden Globes Best Director winner James Cameron for his latest blockbuster, Avatar, was renamed today, xinhuanet.com reported.
The management committee of the Yuanjiajie part of Wulingyuan Scenic Area in Zhangjiajie changed the name of the "South Pillar of the Heaven" (also called the "Pillar between Heaven and Earth") to "Hallelujah Mountain", a namesake floating island in the movie that circulates in the magnetic currents of the make-believe planet of Pandora.
The "South Pillar of the Heaven", about 150 meters above the ground at the height of 1,074 meters above sea level, is a nationally renowned scenic attraction, among "three thousand mountain peaks" in the tourist city of Zhangjiajie in central China's Hunan province.
