Xiling Gorge

Xiling Gorge is the longest of the Three Gorges, 66 kilometers long, starting from the Dadong County in the west and ending at the Nanjin Pass of Yichang in the east. It goes through the Hubei Province entirely from the west to east.

There are plenty of shoals and rapid currents, with the most dangerous ones being Xietan, Qingtan and Kong Ling, known as the Three Shoals of Xiling Gorge. Karst caves can be found everywhere around the gorge.
