About Qingjiang Gallery Tourist Resort
In spring the river is fragrant, in summer mist drifts in rings, in autumn the maples glow redder than fire, and in winter smoke hangs over the river. The Qing River's scenery is varied and changes with the seasons. Peaks line both banks in deep green, mist spreads over the water, and the river runs so clear you can see the bottom. People say the Qing River combines the grandeur of the Three Gorges of the Yangtze, the clarity of the Lijiang River in Guilin, and the grace of West Lake in Hangzhou.
