Colorful Shuangqiao Gully

Ticket: RMB80/pax
Shuttle bus: RMB70/pax

Shuangqiao Gully extends 34.8 km and covers an area of about 216.6 square km. This scenic area consists of three sections. In the gully, people can view more than 10 snow mountains over 4,000 meters above sea level each.

The lower section is the Yangliu Bridge with some mysterious scenes such as the Yinyang Gully, a poplar forestry strip, the Sun and Moon and Precious Mirror Mountain, and the Five-Color Mountain.

The middle section is the Nianyu Dam, including the Renshenguo Level Ground, a sand thorn forest, Jianshanzi, Jiujiahai, and other scenic sites.

The upper section is the Niupengzi Lawn and Changhe Beach, including the Hunter Peak, Niupengzi, the Changhe Dam, and other scenic sites.

Among the scenic sites, the Ape and Hunter peaks are very astonishing, and those mountains and stones with various mysterious legends such as the Five-Color and Plenilune mountains show their special spirit.

The highways winding through the Shuangqiao Gully string together all the mysterious and beautiful scenic sites like a dazzling brilliant necklace.

Steep overhanging cliffs flank the near the edge of the valley. The dismal darkness of the valley's inside poses a sharp contrast with the blinding brightness outside. The sepulchral silence is pierced intermittently by the splashing, cascading streamlets. No wonder this part of the valley is nicknamed as 'The Valley of Spirits.'

After walking for several kilometers along winding paths, the silent and dark narrowness gradually opens up, letting light slip through. The zigzags eventually lead to the valley's open area.

In October, nature lavishly unfolds its fall splendor. It mantles every bit, from the valley bottom all the way up to the summit, with a palette of crimson, orange yellow, deep brown, vivid purple, sapphire blue, and blackish green. All the peaks, trees, grasslands, streams, and water drops are completely bared in their natural being, untouched and unspoiled by man. Though only a few families inhabit the area, the architectural styles of their houses are in complete harmony with the surroundings.
