Features: The banks of the Xijiang are dotted with dense rock fissures, often forgetting how far the path extends; valleys intertwine, rivers converge, and ancient towns occasionally appear. Among them are fragrant grasses, serene hometowns, crisscrossing fields, and generations of farmers working year after year, with ancient eaves and timbers unchanged through the ages. Within the Xijiang lies a paradise-like realm, with simple local customs and millennia-old ancient towns. This book provides an overview of tourism in the surrounding areas of the Three Gorges, introducing the geography, customs, scenery, and stories of places such as Chongqing, Chengdu, Zunyi, the Qutang Gorge, the Wu Gorge, and the Xiling Gorge.
