Footpath touches nature gently

A 19-kilometer-long elevated footpath weaves its way through five mountains in the city of Fuzhou, Fujian province, opening the area to easy public access.

"Four years ago, few people walked here," said Wang Wenkui, assistant to the head of the Fuzhou Planning and Design Research Institute. "Now the project connects once-inaccessible parts of the city, providing people with an escape from the dense cityscape."

Fuzhou has 56 mountains in its urban area, providing options for people to explore nature.
