Located high up above the Jinsha River on a remote mesa that is nearly inaccessible to the outside world, the village of Yingge became a little easier to reach in 1992 when a simple steel ropeway carriage was built across the 200 meter deep gorge. This aerial tramway consisted of little more then 2 steel wires 470 meters long. Farmers were finally able to reach a road that could lead them to towns and cities both near and far.

Th era of this old fashioned sky ferry came to a close after more then 25 years of service. In 2018 the Ying'ge Ropeway was bypassed by a large concrete arch with a span of 260 meters between foundation faces. The ribs rise 50 meters for a span to rise ratio of 5.2 to 1.

The 385 meter long 2-lane crossing is 9 meters in width.
