Three Natural Bridges

Description

Wulong Tiankeng, also known as Three Natural Bridges, is a breathtaking ecological tourist destination that boasts remarkable geological wonders and serves as a prime example of karst landform. The Three Natural Bridges, which are Tianlong Bridge (Sky Dragon Bridge), Qinglong Bridge (Azure or Green Dragon Bridge), and Heilong Bridge (Black Dragon Bridge), comprise the largest group of natural bridges in Asia. Standing over 150 meters tall, 200 meters wide, and with a span of 300 meters, these bridges stand vertically, parallel to each other, and connect the mountains on either side, creating a unique landscape of "three bridges sandwiching two pits." This scene is incredibly uncommon worldwide, with two huge sinkholes on the ground and three natural stone arch bridges above. Beneath the Tainlong Bridge, visitors can find a traditional Chinese structure with a black roof and gray walls. This structure was once an official post built during the Tang Dynasty and later reconstructed based on historical relics. It even served as the only exterior scene for "The Golden Armor in the City" movie.
