Wu Gorge Introduction             Last Update : 2006-11-10 14:14:23 As you sail on past Qutang Gorge, you will gradually enter Wu Gorge, an area that's pristine beauty has captivated artists, poets, and sightseers for centuries. Wu Gorge begins at the bayou of the Daning River  in Chongqing and stretches about 45 kilometers (28 miles) to Badong County where it ends in Guandukou (Hubei Province). Last Update : 2006-11-9 17:15:46 The river of Wu Gorge cuts its way through two majestic mountains, which provide a stunning green backdrop for the flowing water. Twelve lofty peaks gleam above the floating mist which almost continuously hovers over the river (due to the depth of the gorge and lack of sunlight on the river). The mountains often appear to change shape as they peer out from the mist, giving the gorge a touch of romantic mysticism. Goddess Peak is the highest of the twelve peaks and can be identified by the waterfalls that spill gracefully down her mountainside. When the sun shines on the Twelve Peaks of Wu Gorge, the view is breathtaking. Last Update : 2006-11-10 14:12:22 While the pristine mountains and picturesque surroundings alone make a trip to Wu Gorge worthwhile, a number of riverside attractions add even more to the area's appeal. Historical landmarks, ranging from ancient temples to notable inscriptions, are conveniently located on the river banks and should not be missed on your visit.
