Feel the majestic momentum and the mist blowing in your face on the viewing platform. Then we challenged the high-altitude glass bridge, which is more than 300 meters long. There is a deep abyss under our feet and continuous green mountains around. The bridge shakes a little, which is exciting and fun. You can even see a rainbow when the sun is shining. Walk across the glass bridge, arrive at Hongfu Pan, and take a photo with the huge Chinese character "Fu". Then take the elevator down the mountain and experience the real-life version of "QQ Speed" - a car flying in the clouds, with 360-degree turns and self-controllable speed.

Time planning: It takes half a day to a whole day to visit Yunmen Mountain. It is recommended to enter the park around 9 am so that you can fully enjoy the park until 4 pm. 2. Things to bring: The ultraviolet rays in Guangdong are strong, so you should bring a hat, sunscreen, and sunglasses even in winter; wear light sports shoes, as it is important to have non-slip soles when riding on the glass bridge and the roller coaster; you can prepare some energy snacks, such as chocolate and beef jerky, to replenish your energy in time. 3.
