## About Wuyang River Three Gorges

Known as a ‘natural ink-wash scroll’, the Wuyang River is prized for its ever-changing colours, and the patterns and hues on the cliffs and peaks along its banks are equally varied. The river's scenery has five wonders: the most magical is ‘Broken Mirror Made Whole’, the most elegant is ‘Three-Tier Waterfall’, the most magnificent is ‘Peacock Peak’, the most perilous is ‘One Line of Sky’ (Yixiantian), and the most expansive is ‘Reclining Buddha Ridge’. Downstream in the Wuyang Valley lies the true essence of the Wuyang River Scenic Area, characterised chiefly by its strange gorges, dangerous peaks and emerald waters.
