Located in the Hubei Province, the 8Kms-long Qutang Gorge is the first and shortest among the three. It has the most spectacular scenery of precipitous mountains, colorful karst rocks, lakes, grottoes, dense forests, lakes, ancient temples, monuments, and pavilions. There are also ethnic villages, amusement parks, trekking paths, bungee jumping zones, cable car rides, and other activities that tourists can enjoy while in the region.
