Reviews
Guide
- Tiger Leaping Gorge is located at the junction of Lijiang City and Diqing Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture in Yunnan Province. It is one of the deepest gorges in the world and a magnificent gorge formed by the Jinsha River flowing between Yulong Snow Mountain and Haba Snow Mountain. It is famous worldwide for its steep terrain and turbulent river. Legend has it that a giant tiger leaped across the river by jumping on stones, hence its name.
- The scenic area is composed of three sections: upper, middle, and lower. Visitors can follow the plank roads built along the river to delve deep into the gorge, experiencing firsthand the surging waves created by the Jinsha River being squeezed here, and the roaring sound of the river crashing against giant rocks is extremely shocking. The towering snow-capped mountains on both banks and the rushing rapids below form a distinct geological contrast, making it not only a paradise for outdoor hiking enthusiasts but also an excellent place to deeply experience the beauty and power of nature's creation.
- For travelers seeking a challenge, the high-road hiking trail of Tiger Leaping Gorge offers panoramic views of the entire gorge, while for leisure visitors, descending to the riverside plank roads can also fully appreciate the grandeur and magnificence of Tiger Leaping Gorge. Whether it's admiring the gorge scenery reflected by the snow-capped mountains or experiencing the thrill of traversing dangerous terrain, this is an unmissable natural landmark in any Lijiang and Shangri-La travel itinerary.
