Central China's Cool Capital ~ Yesanguan

Look up to see the sea of clouds, look down to smell the selenium-rich soil. The distant mountains are as green as ink, while the nearby greenery forms a shade... When you arrive at Yesanguan Town in Badong County, a cool feeling follows, and the 'full view of green' makes you escape the hustle and bustle. Wuhan citizens' summer retreat target 'shifts' Why has Yesanguan become a popular summer destination? Yesanguan is the first pass when entering from the east and the first post when reaching Chongqing and Sichuan. With an average altitude of 1200 meters, it is the first high point of elevation from the Jianghan Plain into the central and western regions at 30° north latitude. It is 'the closest west to the east, the closest mountain to the plain.' Here, the average summer temperature is around 22°C, so Yesanguan is called 'Central China's Cool Capital.'
