## About Longjing River Rafting

This rafting trip suits young people best. Its thrills and dangers have earned high praise, and it is known as “the first rafting ride under heaven for brave souls.” The route includes about five major drops, all extremely dangerous and nearly vertical. Rubber rafts and riders plunge down the rapids, so it is less rafting than falling, and occasionally boats even capsize. Since you will get completely soaked, it is only suitable for summer.
