The signature highlight of any Wulong day tour.

Part 2 — Choose Your Second Destination

Pick one of the following spots to round out your day:

1. Longshuixia Fissure 龙水峡地缝＋

Known as the most beautiful crack on Earth, this narrow, deep karst canyon features sheer cliffs, hanging waterfalls, clear streams, and lush greenery. A suspended wooden path takes you through a "line of sky" and into a quiet, primeval world. Cool, refreshing, and visually stunning — perfect for nature lovers and photographers.

2. Fairy Mountain National Forest Park 仙女山国家森林公圆＋

Called the No.1 Grassland in the South, it offers wide alpine meadows, dense forests, and rolling mountain views. Enjoy fresh air, wide-open spaces, and gentle scenery. In summer it’s a perfect escape from the heat; in winter it becomes a lovely ski resort. Great for families and anyone wanting relaxed, peaceful nature time.

3. The “Flying Kiss” 天空之吻＋

One of Wulong’s most iconic and thrilling experiences — a glass-bottomed observation deck suspended high above the karst valley, offering breathtaking panoramic views. The dramatic scenery and the sensation of floating above the landscape make it a must-visit for adventure seekers and photography enthusiasts alike.

4. Furong Cave & Furong River Boat Ride (芙蓉江/芙蓉洞) ＋

Furong River: A clean, blue river winding through spectacular karst gorges. Take a relaxing cruise and enjoy fresh mountain views.

Furong Cave: A world-class karst cave, often called an underground art palace. It features rare and stunning stalactites, stalagmites, and stone formations shaped over 1.2 million years. A magical, otherworldly experience.
