Also named Wulong Tiankeng, it is a rare geological wonder of typical karst landforms, boasting the world's largest natural stone bridge cluster, including Tianlong Bridge, Qinglong Bridge and Heilong Bridge. With an average height and span of over 200 meters (660 feet), three 'bridges' actually refers to three naturally-formed giant arches on cliffs, spanning the Yangshui River in parallel. Besides, the scenic area boasts enchanting scenery accompanied by lush plants, waterfalls, streams, caves and mist. Trekking along the narrow footpath to the bridges' base, one can admire their majesty and splendor from a better place and be astounded by the creator of all these sights: nature. What's more, the Three Natural Bridges scenic area was the shooting place for the American film Transformers: Age of Extinction, and the Curse of the Golden Flower by Chinese movie director Zhang Yimou.
