based on 14 reviewsThey say traveling is about going from a place you're tired of to a place others are tired of, but the Zhonggu cableway is a place you'll never get tired of. With 82 cabins eliminating long wait times, you can enjoy a bird's-eye view of the botanical garden's beauty and take in the panoramic scenery of Gulangyu Island, while also gazing at Taiwan's Sandan, Sidan, and Wudan from afar. It's undoubtedly a great spot for "smart sightseeing in Xiamen".
The Zhonggu cableway is located on the west side of Xiamen botanical garden, a national 5A-level attraction. With a total length of approx. 1000 m, it offers panoramic views of Xiamen. Running parallel to the Zhonggu mountain tunnel, the cable car provides an aerial view of the botanical garden, where lush trees create a staggered landscape and rugged rocks form uniquely breathtaking scenery, making it a natural oxygen bar on Xiamen Island. Additionally, the original wartime tunnels and wind-rocked boulders evoke memories of the past. At the midway station, there's a viewing spot to overlook Xiamen's coastal scenery and gaze at the twin towers and Gulangyu Island in the distance, making it an ideal place to enjoy mountains, sea views and sunsets in Xiamen.

Show More ReviewsWorth a visit! It's decent, not as bad as some of the negative reviews suggest. The truly beautiful scenery only appears after you've ridden the cable car halfway up. It was drizzling when we went, but it stopped after a few minutes, and that was when the best part was felt – a gentle breeze, the sea in the distance, and a very pleasant atmosphere! Since you're already there, experiencing it won't cost you anything, but it will definitely provide a relaxing experience.
