Trip.com User: First to Fairy Town itself is like a European town. In November, I went along the road and was yellowed by ginkgo trees. It was super romantic. I went to the visitor center to buy a ticket and went directly to the bus. It was about 15 minutes and arrived at the entrance of Tiansheng Sanqiao. When I got off the bus, I saw the oversized Transformers Hornets, next to the entrance of the scenic spot. After entering the scenic spot, take a short walk to the elevator entrance and take the elevator directly to the bottom of the mountain. The special natural landscape in the park is breathtaking. People who have been there will know why this place is listed as a world natural heritage. They can only continue to marvel at the magic of nature. I didn't feel tired after walking for more than 4 hours. My body and mind were washed completely. If I travel to Chongqing, this attraction is definitely worth exploring.

SarainChina: it’s an earthly example of paradise! we took a train from Chongqing to Wulong station and from there DD to the tourist center! once you perchase your ticket you will be picked up by a bus for another half an hour and there you go. foreigners need to have negative nucleic acid test results in order to enter the areas and boon hotels there. not forget to mention you’ll be visiting the location of the movie “ transformers”.
