📸 Must-see Highlights
1️⃣ Canyon Waterfalls
- Rainbow Falls is incredibly stunning, and even more photogenic after rain!
- In the afternoon, when the sunlight reflects off Rainbow Falls, you can see a small rainbow. Be sure to find the perfect angle!
2️⃣ Hanging Plank Road
- Built along the cliff face, it overlooks a deep emerald pool. Those with acrophobia should be wary, but it's incredibly thrilling!
3️⃣ Waterfront Trail
- Shallow water is available, so bring flip-flops/sandals! The water is clear and refreshing, a must-do in the summer! 💦
4️⃣ Primeval Forest
- The negative oxygen ion count is high, and the hiking trail is shaded by trees, so you're completely sun-free 🌿
Tips:
1️⃣ The entire Zhongba Grand Canyon is very flat, with many trails and few steps.
2️⃣ Upon arrival, we recommend taking the shuttle bus from the entrance to the mountaintop and then slowly descending. It's not tiring at all.
3️⃣ The path to the scenic area is very flat, with a few steps, but it's quite narrow. If you're bringing a stroller, be cautious; it feels a bit dangerous and should be used with a waist support.
4️⃣ The tour lasted about two hours. We barely stopped, and walked for over two hours. There are many water-friendly areas, so older children can spend more time playing in the water.
5️⃣ The shuttle bus takes the road, which is separate from the scenic area. There's a parking lot at the end of the shuttle bus 🅿️, so you can drive up with your car 🚗.
5️⃣ Remember to wear non-slip shoes, as some sections can be slippery.
💬 Real Experience:
The scenery is beautiful with few people, like stepping into a martial arts movie! The entire hike takes about 3 hours, perfect for taking photos and relaxing, and a weekend escape from the city.
