Each of the three gorges along the Shennong River have their unique features; the Longchang Gorge with it narrow stream and steep high walls that gives the impression of 'A Rift in the Sky'; the Yingwu (or Parrot) Gorge with its ubiquitous grotesque rocks and escarpment washed with the crystal green waters and graced with the colorful rainbow that span the gorge; and the Jinzhu George, named after the Jinzhu bamboo that grows here abundantly. <br /> <br /> There are over 60 Karst caves and features along the stream as well as the ancient Hanging Coffins suspended high on the cliff, and the remnants of the <a href="/amaze_yangtze/flavor/relics/ancient_plank_road.htm">Ancient Plank Road</a> that ran along the gorge walls. Bands of wild monkeys can be seen darting among the mountain forest, giving flight to the many flock of short beaked golden swallows that make this area their home.<br /> <br /> Tip: Shennong Stream is part of the itinerary of Yangtze River Cruise, so visitors taking a Yangtze cruise ship will stop at Badong County and take a excursion tour to the Shennong Stream. However, some cruise ships will stop at the Three Little Gorges instead, so visitors are suggested to confirm your itinerary with the cruise company or travel agency.</p> Bold Italic (Your IP address will be recorded in this page's edit history.)
