## About West Coast Scenic Area

The West Coast, also known as the West Sea Plank Walk, is the most thrilling section of Mount Sanqing. Along a cliff face about 1,600 metres above sea level, a plank walkway about 3,700 metres long and 2 metres wide juts out over the abyss. Running from Tiyun Ridge (梯云岭) in the south to Sanqing Palace in the north, it is the longest and most expansive suspended plank walkway on the mountain, and arguably among the longest and most open high-mountain cliff walkways in the world. Standing on the viewing gallery, you will feel as carefree as wandering the West Sea and as joyful as an immortal.
