Yu Qiuyu wrote in 'Cultural Journey': 'Among the interesting places in China, if I could only mention one, it would be the Three Gorges.'
Why do the Three Gorges captivate literati and scholars from all walks of life to linger and forget to return? Perhaps this journey can give us the answer~
📍 Here is the Qutang Gorge, known for its perilous terrain, where the narrowest part of the river is just over 10 meters, yet the peaks on both sides can reach thousands of meters high. The ancients described it as 'Peaks join the sky, boats travel through earth's crevices,' a unique scenery that one must see when visiting the Three Gorges.
📍 Here is the summit of the Three Gorges, the highest point of the Yangtze River Three Gorges landscape, offering a comprehensive overlook of the magnificent scenery of the Three Gorges, bringing a thrilling visual experience.
📍 Here are the Kui Prefecture Museum and the Wushan Museum, rich in cultural relics, where you can explore the little-known stories behind ancient artifacts and look back on the history of this land over thousands of years.
📍 This is also the background image of the 10 yuan banknote, just bring the banknote and you can take a photo check-in on the spot~
Fun and interesting special activities:
✅ Calligraphy and Poetry Gathering
Many literati and scholars were inspired to write timeless poems when passing through the Three Gorges. On the banks of the Three Gorges, we have also prepared a recitation gathering for everyone, facing the river breeze of the Three Gorges to recite poems and experience the carefree and hearty dialogue with history.
✅ Tea Tasting in the Clouds🍵
What does it feel like to drink tea in the clouds? Before you is the magnificent view of the Three Gorges, and in your ears is the crisp chirping of birds in the mountains. With the fragrant tea entering your mouth, accompanied by such beautiful scenery, whenever you reminisce, the aftertaste is always tinged with a hint of sweetness.

# One of the first many times in life, the first time to watch the sunrise on the Yangtze River, the first time to live in the river cruise! For the first time, visit the mountain gorge with local attractions, and the harvest is full! It takes 1 hour and 30 minutes by car from the port of Zigui. Entering the Three Gorges family, the eyes were attracted by the sailboats of several fishermen and the shouts of a group of trackers on the shore! Along the slate paved mountain path all the way past, not far from the Tujia Amei with an umbrella and a red makeup standing around the bow! This situation is like a beautiful portrait of mountains and rivers! so gorgeous! Walking, two women are washing by the river, this may be the life of the Tujia Three Gorges family! At 11 o'clock, there is a performance of the Tujia culture crying marriage custom! Very exciting, the venue is not big, the drums, the buzzing, the cheers of the tourists are mixed together, the scene is surrounded by water! Come to Yichang Three Gorges family must go!
The cable car of the Three Gorges Monkey Creek is very interesting, open-air, so that you dont have to worry about the front glass blocking the scenery, but you should be careful with your timid friends. Its really exciting. .
The fairy ropeway, a smile to the city, and then laugh at the country. Perhaps smiling is the warmest look in the world.
I live in a wonderful world. It is big, quiet, and near, really real, and so direct. The raging growth of the trees has been for a long time. It seems that they are all "moving", not because of the wind, but because of their own growth. They struggled somewhere they couldnt touch, trying to get closer to the place... Looking up at the sky, the sky is the same, trying to escape their blue, bluer, bluer.../hc /
[Travel Tips]: When you take the ropeway, put the backpack in front, you must put the valuables in the bag, and you will feel bad when you fall.
[price]: Downside: 20 yuan / person, up: 30 yuan / person
Jinhualing is connected to Hongyan Cave in the south, Xiaolongtan in the north, Turf Bay in the east, Changyanwu in the west, 3019 meters above sea level, 107 kilometers away from Songxiangping. The mountain is golden and cold, the climate is cold, the rainfall is abundant, and the forest is dense. The arrow bamboo is like the sea and has beautiful scenery. The golden monkey, which is listed as a national first-class protected animal, has been here to attract many experts to visit. This mountain has become a rare golden monkey and white bear protection area. Also fortunate to see the golden monkey's style.
On the car to Jinhualing, the tour guide and we have always said: You must take a deep breath to the Golden Monkey Ridge! Because this is the best spot for Shennongjia air, negative oxygen ions are several times in the city~~~ Frequently smoked friends must come to wash the lungs! ~
Before entering the golden monkey base, everyone should wear the base-sterilized clothes, because this will prevent humans from transmitting the germs to the monkeys, and the monkeys will not scratch the tourists' clothes. (At the same time as the visit, don't throw some snacks of fruits or toys for the monkeys, the administrators will give them a full meal every day.)
After half an hour of intimate contact with the monkeys at the golden monkey base, we will go to the next destination. Land: Xiaolongtan. Xiaolongtan and Dalongtan are all looking at rare animals. What is different from Dalongtan is that there are more wild animals in Xiaolongtan, but they are all in cages, otherwise the bears are easy to hurt people. PS: You can also experience a five-star toilet in Shennongjia in Xiaolongtan. You can try it, haha.
"Golden Monkey Flying Waterfall" is a model of Shennongjia Waterfall. It is above the cliffs of Wanzhang, passing through the jungle and plunging down.
When the tourist bus stopped in front of this big LOVE logo, everyone went out of the car and there was a breeze blowing in the air... This made us rushed from the fire-like Wuhan, and my heart was really cool.~
All seasons
Rizhao incense burner produces purple smoke, and sees the waterfall hanging in front of the river."
The Three Gorges family, surrounded by mountains and rivers, is picturesque: the traditional Three Gorges shacks are dotted between mountains and rivers. The long-lost ancient sailing ships and awning boats are quietly parked in front of the Three Gorges family. The girls on the creek are wielding their clothes and cleaning the clothes. The leisurely fishermen are fishing in the net... The customs and customs that have been circulated for thousands of years reflect the simple hospitality of the people of Xiajiang. Entering the Xiajiang Hanging House, Xiajiang sisters sing and dance, the red hydrangea in the hands fluttering, and the beautiful Three Gorges girl will hold you a cup of Xiazhou Qingcha, you will feel dreamlike and affectionate. The beauty of the Three Gorges family's stone card, the beauty in the "Bay, Shiqi, Valley, hole, spring Gan". Representative attractions include Stone Token, Shipai War Memorial, Mingyue Bay, and Yanquan.
The reason why the Three Gorges is called the "three" gorge is because there are three Shaanxi valleys between the east of Fengjie County in Chongqing and Yichang City in Hubei Province: Qutang Gorge, Wu Gorge and Xiling Gorge. Qutang Gorge is the shortest and narrowest of the Three Gorges, only 8 kilometers. The Wu Gorge is the most beautiful place in the Three Gorges. It is known as Junxiu and is 45 kilometers long. The Xiling Gorge is the most dangerous place in the Three Gorges, with a total length of 76 kilometers. . If you are traveling to Yichang, Hubei, you must take a boat to see the dangerous peaks of the Xiling Gorge and the rolling Yangtze River.
Xiling Gorge starts from Xiangxikou East to Nanjin Pass in the west, and is named after Xiling Mountain in Yichang. There are four landscapes in Xiling Shaanxi: Bingshu Baojian Gorge, Niuhe Mafeixia, Qiling Gorge and Dengying Gorge. The most well-known attraction is the Three Gorges Family tour in Dengyingxia by boat. "One shoulder and two dams (Three Gorges Dam and Gezhou Dam) and one river with two streams (Longjinxi and Yangjiaxi) are the most wonderful descriptions of the "Three Gorges".
