It winds up and down through the mountains with a vertical drop of around 70 meters. The most prominent feature of Xiaojiawan Park is the flying footbridge, which has never been seen in this city before. Its structure is very graceful.

And it is expected to become a landscape park, integrating ecological and environmental protection, local characteristics, the popularization of science, cultural education and outdoor sports.

Taking the vertical drop into consideration, Xiaojiawan Park set up several special landscapes, including hiking trail, footbridge and observation deck.
