Cangshan Ximatan Cableway

The Cangshan Ximatan ropeway is located in the Cangshan Scenic Area of Dali City, Dali Bai Autonomous Prefecture, Yunnan Province. Its starting point is at the Tianlong Babu Film and Television City, passing through the Seven Dragon Maiden Pools, and reaching Ximatan at the summit of Cangshan Mountain. This ropeway is over 5,000 meters long with a vertical drop of over 1,600 meters, making it one of the world's passenger tourist ropeways with the largest vertical drop and advanced technology, offering visitors a breathtaking high-altitude experience from the foot of the mountain to the peak of Cangshan.

Riding the Ximatan Grand ropeway, visitors can enjoy the marvelous landscape of Cangshan's vegetation zones changing with the climate in a stable and comfortable cabin as the altitude continuously rises, from lush broad-leaved forests and fir forests to alpine shrublands, finally arriving at Ximatan, which is over 3,900 meters above sea level. Along the way, one can also overlook the beautiful ancient city of Dali and the shimmering Erhai Lake from an excellent bird's-eye view, experiencing the magnificent beauty of Dali's "wind, flowers, snow, and moon."

Upon reaching the summit, visitors can walk along the plank road to tour Ximatan. The scenery here varies with the seasons; in spring and summer, the alpine rhododendron sea is dazzling, while in autumn and winter, it transforms into a crystal-clear world of ice and snow. During the rainy season, with abundant moisture, one can even experience mysterious cloud and mist spectacles. This ropeway is not only a sightseeing passage but also a wonderful journey of exploration to appreciate Cangshan's geological wonders and plateau ecology, an absolute must-do in-depth experience for visiting Dali.
