Jianmenguan (剑门关) – The Sword Gate of Sichuan. This is a key junction on the ancient "Sichuan Qin Road." It's filled with steep cliffs, lush forests, and the mysteries of over 2,000 years of Chinese history!
🗡 The name "Jianmenguan" means "Sword Gate" because the narrow gorge looks like it was cut by a sword, and it was once an important defensive post during the Three Kingdoms period.
🌿 Today, it's a nature and historical attraction, featuring a Skywalk, a thrilling glass walkway, and a must-see viewing point.
⛰️ For photographers, the view is absolutely breathtaking! It's like something out of an ancient Chinese movie!
🚗 How to get from Chengdu: • 🚅 Take the high-speed train from Chengdu East Railway Station (成都东站) to Jianmenguan Station (剑门关站). The journey takes approximately 1.5 hours. • 🚖 From Jianmenguan Station, take a shuttle bus or taxi to the gate entrance, which takes about 10 minutes. • 🎟 Approximate entrance fee: 90-120 yuan (this price includes the cable car or glass walkway).
