The scenic spot uses 3 layers of ultra-white laminated glass with a thickness of 6.0 cm, with a light transmittance of 99.15%, with clear brightness and ultra-high light refractive index. The 6 major glass projects are suspended on the top of the mountains and waterfalls at a height of 530 meters in Gulong Gorge, and volley out from the cliffs. The total length is 1,300 meters and the area is 12,000 square meters. The Gulong Grand Canyon with a height difference of one kilometer integrates waterfalls, deep pools, strange rocks and jungles. Among them, the Wanzhangya Waterfall has a single drop of 131 meters. Yuntian Boba has swept 12 world records, becoming the new world leader in high-altitude tours. Visitors can reach the Yuntian Boba Glass Bridge from the middle of the canyon through the single-level outdoor escalator. There is no platform in the middle of the whole elevator, and a sunshade canopy is installed on the elevator to the top. 2 minutes and 45 seconds, which is equivalent to raising the height of a 30-story building. Six major glass projects will open the city in the sky one by one: 1. Glass platform: The Yuntian Boba glass platform is 302 meters long and has a suspended span of 202 meters and 72 meters. The giant UFO-shaped glass platform is located at the top of the waterfall, hanging high above the cliffs and deep pools, close to the huge water curtain of the waterfall. The finishing touch is the giant glass viewing platform with a diameter of 18 meters on the top of the platform. If Yuntian Boba is a giant steel beast, then the 26.8-meter-high giant orangutan sculpture standing behind the glass platform is the soul of the forest in Gulong Gorge. 2. Glass suspension bridge: The total length is 329 meters and the average width is 3.8 meters. There are 2 harbor-style transparent viewing platforms on the bridge. The waterfall-viewing glass bridge and the UFO glass platform echo each other from a distance. The harbor-style viewing boss is equipped with a 5D sound and photoelectric effect device. When sensing the passing of tourists, fantastic effects such as "landslides and ground cracks" and "glass breakage" will appear. 3. Glass plank road: There is a cliff at the foot, and the blue sky above the head. Through the 400-meter glass plank road, 6 major glass projects are on the same level, around the Gulong Gorge Waterfall and the Tongtian Cliff, without the need to climb mountains and mountains. 4. Glass Hanging Corridor: The air corridor hanging high on the top of the mountains connects the UFO circular platform with the sky mirror. 5. Mirror of the sky: a freshly released net red product, 200 square meters of highly reflective glass. 6. Hanging live broadcast room: located at the commanding heights of Yuntian Boba, standing above the waterfall, outside the cantilevered cliff. An outdoor glass live broadcast space with an altitude of 530 meters, a vertical height difference of 263 meters, and a suspended length of 16 meters. The glass live broadcast space is in the shape of a half lotus flower with three petals, implying the natural principle of the unity of heaven, earth and man. Because it cantilevered above the waterfall, it is also known as the "Flying Waterfall Lotus Sky". During live broadcast, the top is the live broadcast area, and the left and right are the product display areas. The live room adopts special soundproof laminated glass. In order to ensure the normal broadcast in special weather, a pink transparent hut was built on the cliff next to the live broadcast platform as an all-weather backup live broadcast room. Standing on the suspended live broadcast platform, the waterfall that swallows the mountains and rivers is rushing under my feet.

Reviews from Real Guests:

Trip.com User: очень хорошее место для эко туризма. я бы не советовал ехать туда м маленькими детьми так как нет возможности взять с собой коляску на горные тропы. достопримечательность очень ухожена, все чисто и опрятно. цена на посещение парка + два стеклянных моста не высока (118 юаней) за некоторые дополнительные аттракционы нужно платить дополнительно ( от 18 до 100 юаней)
