Tianmen Mountain Cable Car

Tianmen Mountain Cable Car, Cable car system in Zhangjiajie, China.

Tianmen Mountain Cable Car is an aerial tramway system that carries visitors up through mountain terrain toward a high peak. The installation includes multiple support structures and safety stations positioned along the cable route.

The system was built to improve access to Tianmen Mountain National Forest Park and make the ascent easier for visitors. Its construction marked a turning point in opening this area to tourism.

The journey takes visitors to a mountain peak that holds special meaning in traditional Chinese stories about a natural gateway between earth and heaven. This place draws people who connect with these ancient tales and the spiritual significance of the landscape.

The best experience happens in clear weather when you can see the surrounding mountain landscape from the cable car. Check weather conditions before your visit and wear comfortable shoes, as the peak can be windy.

The route climbs an extremely steep slope and ranks among the most dramatic cable car systems in the country. This sharp angle lets passengers travel over nearly vertical rock faces while experiencing the sensation of great height.
