Imagine floating 600 meters above crystal-clear lakes and dramatic canyons in a sci-fi-worthy aircraft – no pilot required! 🌄 That’s exactly what travelers are experiencing at Zhejiang Province’s Tianding Lake International Tourism Resort, where unmanned electric vertical take-off and landing (eVTOL) aircraft are revolutionizing sightseeing.
This month, Wencheng County unveiled five cutting-edge tourism projects designed to merge tech with nature. Alongside the viral eVTOL flights, visitors can now book helicopter tours, rotorcraft sports adventures, hot air balloon rides past waterfalls, and drone photography sessions. Five ‘low-altitude routes’ will connect landmarks like Feiyun Lake and Tongling Mountain, offering aerial views that’ll make your Instagram followers swoon. 📸
‘This isn’t just tourism – it’s a gateway to the future of travel,’ said one local planner. With China’s tourism sector leaning into eco-friendly innovation, Wencheng is positioning itself as a must-visit for thrill-seekers and eco-conscious adventurers alike. Who needs flying cars when you’ve got eVTOLs? 🚀
