More ways to explore the area's outdoor wonders
You step onto a walkway of glass that seems to breathe with the canyon — a ribbon of clear panels suspended 350 metres above the gorge, wind nudging at your balance while the cliffs dare you to look down. Earlier the day, a small boat parts the mirror-smooth surface of Baofeng Lake; limestone-and-sandstone peaks rise like slow ships out of green water while a local singer’s voice drifts across the hull.

History
The modern glass bridge opened in 2016 and quickly attracted global attention; the canyon and lake landscape reflect long-term erosion of Mesozoic sandstone and regional tectonic uplift.
Conservation
High visitor numbers can stress riverside vegetation and wildlife; follow marked trails, avoid feeding animals and use park waste facilities to reduce impact.
