Introduction

The west coast of Sanqing Mountain in western China is known as "the home of clouds and mist, and the gallery of pine stones." It is one of the most spacious viewing areas in Sanqing Mountain, with an average elevation of up to 1600 meters. It is said that Sanqing Mountain has experienced three sea invasions, and the current west coast is the former coastline. The west coast scenic area has four wonders: high-altitude plank road, sea of clouds, grand canyon and ancient tree group. Touring the west coast scenic area is a 4-kilometer long journey, including 3600 meters of steps, constructed by China's highest and longest mountain plank road. Along the way, you can also enjoy the beautiful scenery of the sea of clouds. Standing on the cliff of the west coast plank road, looking far away at the sea of clouds, sunset, peaks and valleys, it makes people feel the magnificent and extraordinary natural landscape, giving a fairyland feeling.
