    Brief introduction of the Three Gorges of the Yangtze River: From west to east, there are three main canyon sections: Qutang Gorge, Wu Gorge and Xiling Gorge.

    Hence the name of the Three Gorges. The high mountains on both sides of the Three Gorges face each other, the cliffs are steep, and the peaks are generally 1000-1500 meters above the river surface.

    The narrowest point is less than 100 meters. The Three Gorges was formed by the rising crust of the Yangtze River in this area. Hydropower resources are extremely abundant.

    From the White Emperor City to Daixi is called Qutang Gorge, Wushan to Badongguan Ferry is called Wuxia, and the Xiangxi of Zigui to Nanjin Pass is called Xiling Gorge. The peaks on both sides of the river are 1,000 to 1,500 meters above sea level, the cliffs are standing, the river surface is tightly bound, and the narrowest point is the entrance of the Three Gorges of the Yangtze River, Kuimen, which is only about 100 meters.

    Tourist information

    Tourist season. The wet season of the Three Gorges of the Yangtze River is the peak season of the Three Gorges tourism, at this time the tour can enjoy the beautiful scenery on both sides of the strait, the Three Gorges can only sail during this period, and there will be some places in the dry season because the water is shallow and can not sail and cause regrets. However, after the completion of the Three Gorges Dam, the water level of the Three Gorges section is more than 100 meters, and there is no difference between abundant water and dry water on the Three Gorges tour.

    The Three Gorges of the Yangtze River is the dry season from January to April every year, and the wet season is from May to October.

    The highlight of the Three Gorges of the Yangtze River is the "magnificent and strange show", because the water quality is turbid during the wet season, so the wet season is not the best time to visit the Three Gorges of the Yangtze River.
