Xiling Gorge.

Xiling Gorge is located in the north of Zigui County, Yichang City, Hubei Province, with a total area of 142 square kilometers. It takes only a dozen minutes to drive north from Yichang City. Among the Three Gorges of the Yangtze River, Xiling Gorge is located in the east, in the territory of Badong to Yichang in Hubei, starting from the Xiangxi River mouth in Zigui in the west and ending at Nanjin Pass in the east, with a length of 120 kilometers, of which the narrow valley section is 42 kilometers long, making it the longest gorge in the Three Gorges of the Yangtze River. It is named after the "Western Fortress of Chu" and the west of Yiling (the ancient name of Yichang)... Xiling Gorge is a nearly oval bulge in the Chinese satellite map, known as the "Huangling Uplift" in tectonics, mainly composed of granite and gneiss. Over the decades, after years of treatment of the Sichuan River channel and the completion of the Gezhouba Water Conservancy Project, the water flow has become gentle, but the beautiful scenery remains the same...
