East and West lines
Tianmen Mountain is mostly toured by riding the cableway up; the summit has east and west loop lines joined by cliff walkways.
- West line: the glass skywalk, Guigu plank walk, toward Tianmenshan Temple;
- East line: the sightseeing corridor and the area around the upper cableway station;
- The two meet toward Tianmen Cave.
Suggested order
- Cableway up → walk the west line first (glass skywalk) → cross to the east line → descend at Tianmen Cave;
- Limited energy: do only the west line’s core stretch, then take the escalator down at Tianmen Cave.
Tips
- Enter within your cableway ticket window and allow 4–6 hours;
- Follow on-site directions where walkways are one-way or capacity-limited.
