Leap of Faith: Tiger Leaping Gorge

#travelinginchina Tiger Leaping Gorge, or Hutiao Xia, is a breathtaking canyon on the Jinsha River in Yunnan, China. The gorge is about 16 km long and features steep cliffs, rushing water, and stunning scenery. Hiking through the gorge reveals picturesque villages, ancient temples, and dramatic landscapes.
