    Shennongjia is truly a place that always leaves me feeling awe every time I visit, especially when it snows. It seems like everyone, from tourists to friends and family, wants to come here for a vacation. The guesthouse I stayed at recently was also excellent.

    One of my favorite, most beautiful place I've been to while living and traveling around China for 2 years. The mountains and temples are absolutely stunning. It's full of history, spirituality and lore. It's a must-see place for people interested in taoism and martial arts. Some attractions are easily accessible by bus, while others require more walking up the mountain or even cable car. There are also shops and restaurants near the bus stops which is convenient too. I would recommend travelers to book a hotel on the mountain for at least 3 nights so you can visit all the easily accessible temples. If you want to go off the beaten path, then you should stay for a longer time. I definitely want to visit again to see and experience more the mountains have to offer.

    Worth going. Wushan Xiaoxiao Three Gorges is located in Wushan County, Chongqing, composed of Longmen Gorge, Bawu Gorge, and Dicui Gorge. It is famous for its steep canyons and clear water peaks. The relics of the thousand-year hanging coffins and plank road can be seen on both sides of the Straits. The red leaves of the autumn are more poetic. Specialties recommend Wushan grilled fish (spicy and tender), emerald jelly (made from wild plants, green and refreshing) and bacon pigs [price-performance ratio] [fun] [scenery] hoof dry potatoes. In terms of transportation, Chongqing's main city takes about 4 hours by bus to Wushan County, and then transfer to the tourist center by bus or taxi; or take the Yangtze River cruise through Wushan Pier, transfer to the sightseeing boat to visit the small Three Gorges, the waterway scenery is better.

    The scenery is absolutely stunning. I went at the end of November, and the 66 hairpin turns from Aokou took less than two and a half hours, including rest stops. The slope is quite steep, so it's a bit of a challenge for your heart, lungs, and stamina. If you don't have your own car, I recommend starting from Baidi City. It's only a few kilometers more, because it's very inconvenient to get a taxi from the city center to Aokou (except for those who take the scenic area bus directly from the high-speed rail station).

    It is worth going. After the Three Gorges Dam is stored, the scenery is better. Safety. [Cost-effective] [Interesting] [View] Baidi City·Qantangxia Scenic Area is located in Fengjie, Chongqing, with convenient transportation: you can take the high-speed rail to Fengjie Station to transfer to the bus/rent, or drive by car through Shanghai Expressway.

The core attractions include the relics of the Three Kingdoms of Baidi Temple, the Xiongguan of the gate (the scene of RMB 10), the wonders of hanging coffins and the cliff carvings of the Qiantang Gorge.

    The best observation point of the Three Gorges Dam, standing at the commanding height of Tanziling, can see the whole picture of the dam and the five-level lock. The huge concrete building spans the Yangtze River, like a giant dragon lying on the river, and the five-level locks are progressively advancing, and the ships pass in an orderly manner. The strong visual impact is amazing at the greatness of human engineering. However, there are too many people during May 1st, and it may be more comfortable to see it in the off-season.

    Too shocking! I am proud of the big country heavy equipment! The height of more than 100 meters can be lifted in just ten minutes. It is a very different feeling. I experienced the elevator by the boat! The experience of the Three Gorges ship lift line is very good. There are staff on the deck on the third floor to explain and learn a lot of knowledge!

    The scenic area combines various natural landscapes and cultural performances. It's not bad. It's a little bit strenuous. It's still a bit hot in the summer vacation, but there is a cave inside that is very cool. You can go there to escape the heat when it's too hot. The overall commercialization is relatively high. It is recommended to use a small sightseeing car. If you don't like walking, you can rent one and drive it yourself. I forgot to mention the travel meals inside. I signed up for a one-day tour. I need to pay an extra 35 yuan to have lunch at a store at noon. There are 10 people at a table. It's very unpalatable and very pitfalls. Avoid thunder
