About This Place

The Three Natural Bridges form the world's largest and highest string-of-pearls natural bridge cluster, comprising three limestone arches averaging over 300 meters in height. This site served as a filming location for 'Curse of the Golden Flower' and 'Transformers: Age of Extinction'. The unique geological spectacle of 'three bridges sandwiching two sinkholes' is truly awe-inspiring. The route is one-way, so comfortable walking shoes are highly recommended.

Best Time to Visit

April-May, September-October

Spring and autumn offer the most pleasant weather and beautiful scenery. The off-season (e.g., winter) may have cheaper tickets and fewer crowds, but be prepared for colder or foggy conditions. Avoid national holidays and weekends to minimize queues.

Avoid Chinese Holidays

Strongly avoid Golden Week (Oct 1-7), Chinese New Year (late Jan/Feb), and Labor Day (May 1-5). Crowds are extreme and tickets often sell out weeks in advance.
