Xiangxi Zuolong scenic spot is located in Guzhang County, Hexi Town. Actually, there is only a river between another well-known resort inWestern Hunan–Furong Ancient Town. Overall, the length of Zuolong Gorge is about 6,500 meters.Until 1993, Zuolong Gorge was found by an herb digger. According to textual research, its landform is shaped by crust changes and wind erosion in 3 million years.As time goes by, Zuolong Gorge gains a good reputation of “the first peculiar gorge in south eastern China”. Because of its original ecological environment, fresh air and mysterious Tujia customs, Zuolong Gorge is also called “fairyland on earth”, “ideal world”. In addition, Zuolong Gorge has a special type of visiting line, that is, all the lines are built in the deep valley, taking full advantage of steep mountains, just like the sculpture carved by nature carefully looking from a distance. So, as you can imagine, walking along this kind of visiting line, you can not go through all the cliffs solely relying on your hands and feet. Meanwhile, strong will and appreciation to the nature are also essential, that’s what makes Zuolong Gorge “a class about life”. Only when you have an exploration by yourself someday, can you discover how it is like on earth.Translated by Becky
