About this experience
Hi friends! Zhangjiajie Glass Bridge Grand Canyon Scenic Area features a 536-meter-long glass bridge, known as the "Cloud Sky Walk," spanning dramatically across the canyon. On sunny days, the bridge reflects the blue sky and white clouds, creating a surreal sensation of walking in the air. On cloudy or rainy days, the bridge emerges intermittently through the mist—look down, and you might see only fog or a breathtaking drop to the canyon floor! It’s an exhilarating experience. The most stunning view is from the opposite end of the bridge, where it appears half-hidden in the clouds, leaving visitors in awe.
Below the bridge lies the 3.5-kilometer-long canyon, shaded by lush greenery and accompanied by a murmuring stream—a perfect place for a tranquil nature walk. To descend from the bridge to the canyon, you can either walk or choose from exciting transport options like zip lines, slides, or boats . Select based on your preference and sense of adventure!
