Birds chirp, springs gurgle, peaks are green and rocks are deep, and you can explore the jungle to see the wonders. The scenery is picturesque and the artistic conception is poetic. This is Yichang's famous scenic spot - Mingcui Valley in the Three Gorges.

The 10 scenic spots in the valley, including Ziyang Dragon Cave, Tianguan Temple, mineral spring swimming pool, Golden Turtle Lake, palm tree community, wild hawthorn forest, natural stone tunnel, longevity oxygen bar maze, naked stone ditch celestial corridor, and tourist activity center, make people appreciate the wonders of natural ecology and make people intoxicated. It reminds people of the beautiful sentence in ancient poetry: "Rare birds sing wonderfully with sheng and flute, and hanging wall flying springs sound stone harp". The "Eighteen Wonders" of the natural ecology of Mingcui Valley are breathtaking. Someone summarized these eighteen wonders in eighteen sentences: "Ziyang Dragon Cave hides hundreds of pictures, thousand-year-old python vines grow on rocks, hundreds of acres of hawthorn roots, tropical palm trees exist in the valley, oxygen bar maze vines entangle vines, cave terraces are amazing, stalactites can transmit light, stones sing when knocked, bare stones form a four-mile long channel, ancient vines climb hundreds of kilometers, bluestone tunnels are naturally formed, warm in winter and cool in summer Longyong Spring, pure mineral springs are used as swimming pools, golden turtles come out of Jingui Lake, natural stone carvings of hundreds of animals, stalactite flowers grow horizontally, cliff textures are like brocade, and thousands of wild birds sing in the green valley." It can be said that "exotic plants and flowers are always in sight, and natural beauty relies on magical powers"! Here, the trees on both sides are lush, the water is beautiful, the mountains are strange, the rocks are ever-changing, the cliffs are steep, the wild flowers are clumps, and the wild birds are singing.
