Zhonggu Ropeway: A Scenic Escape in Xiamen

Introduction

It is said that traveling means going from a place you’re tired of to a place others are tired of—but the Zhonggu Ropeway is a destination you’ll never grow weary of.

With 82 spacious carriages, you can avoid long queues and enjoy a breathtaking ride high above the city. From this vantage point, you can:

• Overlook the lush Botanical Gardens
• Take in a panoramic view of Gulangyu Island
• Gaze into the distance at Taiwan’s “Three Tans, Four Tans, and Five Tans”

Truly, it’s the perfect spot to “Zhi Guan Xiamen” (Take in the Full View of Xiamen)!

Experience the Ropeway

The cable car ride offers a unique perspective of Xiamen’s landscape:

• The route winds through forests, with varying elevations creating a dynamic visual experience.
• The jagged mountain rocks and natural scenery feel almost heavenly, earning it the title of “Xiamen’s Natural Oxygen Bar.”
• Along the way, you’ll see remnants of wartime bunkers and wind-carved boulders, evoking a sense of history.

At the midway station, an observation deck provides a bird’s-eye view of Xiamen’s cityscape and seascape. The ropeway isn’t just a tourist attraction—it’s also a convenient mode of transport, making it an ideal spot for:

• Couples
• Families
• Weekend getaways & holiday relaxation
