Escape Beijing’s hustle for a day of thrills at Shilinxia — home to the world’s largest UFO-shaped glass cantilever platform! This gravity-defying structure juts 32.8m over a 400m-deep gorge; step onto its transparent aerospace-grade glass, and you’ll “walk on air” with 360° panoramic views of jagged peaks and valleys below — an adrenaline rush you won’t find anywhere else. Wander the 6km valley of surreal rock formations afterward, breathing in fresh mountain air far from the city buzz.

Itinerary

Duration: 7 to 8 hours (approximately)
  • Beijing (Pass by)

    Your private English-speaking guide and driver will pick you up directly from your downtown Beijing hotel, kicking off a memorable day trip to Shilinxia Scenic Area. The journey takes approximately 1.5-2 hours, during which you can freely chat with your guide about Beijing’s attractions, travel tips, or customize other itinerary ideas — they’re here to share insider insights. Upon arrival, start your adventure with a scenic cable car ride up the mountain, soaring over lush valleys and jagged rock formations. Step off the cable car and embark on a gentle 30-minute hike through a forested path, breathing in fresh mountain air (the area boasts over 95% vegetation coverage) as you approach the highlight of the trip: the world-famous UFO glass platform.

    Now it’s time to challenge yourself! Slip on the provided shoe covers and step onto this gravity-defying structure — a futuristic UFO-shaped cantilever extending 32.8 meters over a 400-meter-deep canyon. Its transparent aerospace-grade glass lets you “walk on air,” with unobstructed views of the gorge below and 360° panoramic vistas of rolling peaks. Feel your adrenaline surge as you stand suspended mid-air, surrounded by nature’s grandeur — it’s a heart-pounding, bucket-list-worthy experience you won’t forget. After soaking in the thrills and snapping photos, retrace your steps via the same path and cable car. Refuel with an authentic local lunch at a nearby farmhouse. Once refreshed, your driver will take you back to your Beijing hotel, wrapping up a perfect day of adventure and relaxation.
