We propose a simple rule that generates scale-free networks with very large clustering coefficient and very small average distance. These networks are called simplex triangulation networks(STNs) as they can be considered as a kind of network representation of simplex triangulation. We obtain the analytic results of power-law exponent $\gamma =2+\frac{1}{d-1}$ for $d$-dimensional STNs, and clustering coefficient $C$. We prove that the increasing tendency of average distance of STNs is a little slower than the logarithm of the number of nodes in STNs. In addition, the STNs possess hierarchical structure as $C(k)\sim k^{-1}$ when $k\gg d$ that in accord with the observations of many real-life networks.
