God knows the value of this photo

I don't know how much you know about the profession of trackers, but in fact they are the hardest working people living along the Yangtze River. In the past, they were mostly used to transport goods nakedly, but now they are used to go upstream and downstream to show off and carry tourists. In order to conform to the three views of modern civilized tourism, there is no more naked towing now. About transportation 🚗 Shennongxi Pier is in Badong City. There are buses to Badong Jubaopen Bus Station from Enshi City or Shennongjia Pingqian. The boarding entrance is at the pier in the city. About the cost💰 Tickets are divided into semi-view tour and full-view tour (full-view tour is not available from December 1 to March 31) 1️⃣Semi-view tour: 140 yuan, departure at 8:30 and 14:30 every day (9:00 in the off-season) The route is Badong Tourist Wharf ➡ Longchang Gorge (hanging coffins, Elephant Trunk Hill, coffin lifting performance) ➡ Parrot Gorge (Gaoshi Rock, Yanziqian Cave) ➡ Shennong Gorge (hanging coffins) ➡ return to the wharf by the original route, the whole journey takes about 2 hours. 2️⃣ Panoramic tour: 245 yuan, only one boat departs every day at 10:30 Badong Tourist Wharf ➡ Longchang Gorge (hanging coffins, Elephant Trunk Hill, coffin lifting performance) ➡ Parrot Gorge (Gaoshi Rock, Yanziqian Cave) ➡ Shennong Gorge (hanging coffins) ➡ Yaojiatan Wharf to transfer to tourist bus ➡ Tracker Cultural Corridor (dining) ➡ Take a small wooden boat to experience trackers pulling ➡ Return to the wharf by the original route The whole journey takes 4.5 hours. Notes: (1) The half-view tour is on the boat throughout the whole process, which can be understood as a day trip on the Yangtze River, mainly to see the scenery of the hanging coffins and the Yangtze River. (2) Whether it is a panoramic or semi-panoramic tour, there will be a tour guide who will be responsible for explaining the tour on the way there and for selling the tour on the way back. The size of the boat is also determined by the number of people visiting that day. If there are only a few people, you can take a speedboat cruise and go on deck at any time; but for a large ship with a lot of people, you can only leave the cabin after passing the Yangtze River Bridge. (3) Whether it is the full or half trip, there is no place to restock supplies in the middle, except for spending 30 yuan 🎫 to buy staff meals (the tour guide will ask), so it is recommended to prepare your own food and drinks. (4) The best viewing spot is on the deck. Most of the view in the cabin will be blocked. It is recommended to quickly reach the deck area after boarding the ship.
