## About Zuolong Gorge Scenic Area

Zuolong Gorge is made up of several sections, including Tianliang Stream, Huolong Pool, Heicao Gorge and Nanzhao Gorge. The gorge is about 6.5 kilometres long, with its highest point over 300 metres. For many years it lay hidden deep within the Wuling Mountains. The cliffs on either side stand very close together, with layers of rock striations visible on their faces. Water murmurs along the gorge floor, and waterfalls appear unexpectedly, always delighting visitors.
