Tourist Cableway

The cableway starts at a spot 3,356 meters above sea level in a primeval forest, and ends at a terrace on the snow mountain 4,506 meters above sea level. The total length is 2,968 meters, with a vertical difference of 1,150 meters. Now it is the cableway with the highest altitude of its kind in the world.

(The technology and equipment were imported from the Leinter Company of Italy.) Taking the cableway, one can see seven vertical plant belts along the way. At the top end, tourists can enjoy snow scene all year round, and can also have a closer look at modern glaciers formed 40,000 years ago.
