Chongqing: Private Day Tour to Wulong Karst Geological Park

The journey, in full

Meet your guide in the lobby of your Chongqing Downtown hotel. You will then be transferred by an air-conditioned vehicle to Wulong Karst Geological Park. The journey will take approximately 3 hours, during which you can relax and enjoy the beautiful countryside views. Wulong Karst Geological Park is a stunning natural wonder, featuring echoing caves, plunging sinkholes, stony ravines, and breathtaking natural bridges. This park is an essential part of the karst landscape in southern China and was designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 2007. Your expert guide will accompany you through the park, providing insights into the fascinating hoodoos and sharing the geological history of the area. You will have the opportunity to explore the Three Natural Bridges, a series of limestone bridges that have formed naturally over time. As the largest natural bridge cluster in Asia, these bridges truly live up to their brand names. Next, you will visit the Qingkou Tiankeng Scenic Area, where you can observe the unique karst landforms known as “tiankeng”, or sinkholes. Delve into the heart of this natural wonder and witness the park's unique beauty up close. Don't forget your camera when you visit the setting for the 2014 Hollywood blockbuster Transformers 4, where you will see a model of Optimus Prime. Afterward, you will drive to Longshuixia Fissure Gorge, a geological formation that dates back tens of millions of years. This gap-style gorge is a significant part of the Wulong karst landscape, stretching 5 kilometers in length. The gorge is truly magnificent, with depths ranging from 200m to 500m, showcasing nature's incredible work over thousands of years with primitive forests, waterfalls, springs, and gorges. Finally, your tour will conclude with a late lunch before you are dropped off back at your hotel.
