Gu Long Xia Forest Adventure Kingdom in Qingyuan is located in Binjiang Canyon, Qingxin District, Qingyuan City, 68 km from downtown Guangzhou, at the intersection of Guangqing Expressway, Qinglian Expressway (Xu-Guang Expressway), and Shanzhan Expressway. Nestled between towering cliffs with an elevation difference of 1,000 m, Gu Long Grand Canyon combines waterfalls, deep pools, peculiar rocks, and lush forests. The canyon features steep cliffs, majestic peaks, cascading silver waterfalls, rapid streams, and dense primeval rainforests that block out the sun, offering pleasant weather year-round. Its landscape can be summarized with ten characteristics: "unique, secluded, elegant, delicate, serene, vast, thrilling, adventurous, comprehensive, and ancient." The canyon preserves 30 million m² of subtropical rainforest with a forest coverage rate of 99.1%. With negative oxygen ion concentrations reaching 160,000/cm³, it's a natural oxygen bar perfect for rejuvenation. Qing Dynasty poet Yuan Mei once described Gu Long Xia's grandeur and tranquility with the verse: "Mountains surge like waves, springs murmur as streams flow. Clouds tread beneath my feet, pine waves paint a rare view." Nestled within the dramatic terrain of grand canyons, vast forests, and towering waterfalls, Gu Long Xia has vertically developed five major adventure zones across its 1 km elevation drop amidst cliffside jungles: the Sky Glass Bridge, aerial adventures, grand waterfall clusters, international rafting, and the viral River Valley. Recognized as a National Sports Tourism Demonstration Site and an international rafting competition venue with a certified course by the General Administration of Sport of China, this attraction holds 12 world records. Dubbed "The Undisputed King of Rafting & Glass Bridges" and "The New Global Leader in High-Altitude Sightseeing," Gu Long Xia delivers an unparalleled trifecta of thrills—whitewater rapids, forest expeditions, and sky-high vistas—all in one destination. If the cliff coaster at Gu Long Xia challenges vertical limits, then the canyon coaster pushes the boundaries of extreme curves. The Canyon Coaster stretches 3,680m like a sky road winding through the majestic Ancient Dragon Mountains, crossing three peaks with its terrain-hugging, undulating path that features continuous twists and turns. With a total elevation drop of 260m and speeds reaching 30 km/h, its track design incorporates 28 challenging compound curves including right-angle turns, hairpins, 360-degree spirals, and figure-eight loops. Notably, its "nine consecutive hairpins" surpass the world-famous five-hairpin section of Japan's Akina Pass, making this China's longest mountain coaster with the most curves—a true test of skill with its nine dramatic bends and twenty-eight thrilling turns. The canyon coaster lets you experience gravity-powered downhill racing from mountaintop to finish line, breaking free from Earth's pull as you "skim the ground" along mountain paths like a soaring eagle. With wind howling past your ears, the scenery unfolds like a flowing ink painting - undulating peaks, lush forests, and majestic canyons all receding behind you during thrilling drifts. Beyond the rollercoaster-like jungle route, multiple obstacles and "traps" along the way require no advanced skills but deliver genuine adrenaline rushes when conquered. Approaching each curve with white-knuckled grips, your heartbeat syncs with the cart's dramatic undulations. The track alternates between perilously narrow sections demanding total focus and breathtaking open stretches that unleash involuntary screams of exhilaration. The construction of the canyon race track strictly adheres to international standards, utilizing premium materials for meticulous finishing and installation. Multiple safety protection facilities are installed along the route, with its safety certified by both international and domestic authoritative institutions including the China Special Equipment Inspection and Research Institute, providing visitors with solid and reliable safety assurance. The starting point of the canyon coaster is located at the end of the cliff coaster, seamlessly connecting with the thrilling ride to form an amazing "double coaster" combo. After visiting Gu Long Xia's glass bridge and walking down the mountain, or experiencing the cliff coaster, visitors can quickly reach the canyon coaster starting point via the magic carpet. Without any physical exertion, they can drift down the mountain, truly achieving the experience of climbing no steps while missing no scenery. Enjoy both speed and excitement while marveling at nature's breathtaking craftsmanship. Feel your heart race through winding turns, chase clouds and sunsets across canyon jungles! The thrilling canyon coaster takes you on another adrenaline-pumping adventure!
