Tiānmén Mountain

TIME : 2016/2/17 11:46:11

Visible from anywhere in Zhāngjiājiè city, this distinctive mountain range features Tiānmén Dòng (天门洞), a prominent keyhole cut through the mountainside. The 7km-long Tiānmén Mountain Cable Car (天门山索道; Tiānmén Shān Suǒdào) is Asia's longest, and takes half an hour to hoist you up. The cable car is included in your entrance ticket. Once at the top, a riveting 60m, glass plank road a short walk from the upper cable station will test your belief in human engineering.

It's a 10-minute walk to the cable car station from Zhāngjiājiè's Central Bus Station; Turn left at the bus station, take the second left, then left again at the roundabout.
