The river poured down from both sides, like a tiger descending the mountain. The speed is fast, the waves burst and the valley roared, which is spectacular.

Introduction of main attractions:

1, Tiger jumps

Tiger leaping into the river is the narrowest place in the whole canyon, and the river is only 20 meters wide. There is a boulder in the middle of the river, about 13 meters high. Legend has it that the tiger once jumped to the other side with this boulder, hence the name Tiger Jumping Stone and Tiger Jumping Gorge, which split the torrent in two.

2. Tiger jumps

There are many reefs in the middle of the tiger jumping into the river, which is less than 5 kilometers 100 meters. Like a black dragon that seized and split the customs, it rampaged and crashed into the shore, and the turbid waves were sky-high, forming a dangerous beach at 18. The rock walls on both sides were split by knives and axes, and the cliffs were locked.

Step 3 jump off the tiger

Jinsha River is much smoother in Tiger Leaping Section, and the pleasure of the canyon gradually disappears. Here, the vision is wide, and the eyes can see the fertile fields. Not only can you enjoy the scene of the singing and dancing of the Jinsha River, but you can also turn around three times and nine times. You can also overlook the charm of Haba Snow Mountain and Yulong Snow Mountain.
