“The Emerald Ribbon of Zhenyuan”

#chinatravel Iconic Icon — Wuyang River The Wuyang River is a scenic river in Guizhou Province, China, best known for flowing through the ancient town of Zhenyuan Old City. Its most iconic feature is its emerald-green water winding between steep karst mountains, creating picture-perfect reflections of cliffs, caves, forests, and ancient bridges. One highlight is drifting along the river by boat — passing dramatic gorges, strange rock formations, and peaceful villages. In Zhenyuan, the Wuyang River is also famous for the beautiful Zhusheng Bridge and old waterfront streets, where the river becomes part of daily life and ancient history. Locals call the Wuyang River a “Gallery of Karst Landscapes” because it’s like sailing through a natural painting of peaks, mist, and timeless charm.
