Yuannao Road

How difficult is the Shu Road? “Difficulter than climbing to the sky”, the Jianmenguan Monkey Road in Guangyuan City can accurately express the meaning of this sentence. This is a very thrilling “road”, which can only accommodate one foot and is less than 30 cm wide. There are wire ropes for protection throughout the whole journey, but it is still very thrilling. This “very difficult road” in Sichuan is divided into two parts: the Monkey Road and the Bird Road. The Monkey Road has no guardrails, and relies entirely on a wire rope to “hang” the safety rope. There is an iron chain as thick as an arm for tourists to hold on. The Bird Road has guardrails and does not need to hang a safety rope, but they have one thing in common, that is, they are very narrow. This “very difficult road” is carved on the cliff. On the straight cliff, it is forcibly carved out for tourists to visit. From a distance, the Monkey Road is like a rope hanging on the cliff. Today, the “Ape Road” carved out on the cliffs can better reflect the “danger” of Jianmen Pass.
