At 4;50pm Oct 19,\u00a02010, we are approaching Wu Gorge (\u5deb\u5ce1), one of the Three Gorges between Qutang Gorge and Xiling Gorge.<\/p>\n

Wu Gorge is the most famous and beautiful gorge of the three, with a total length of over 40 km starting from the mouth of the Daning River( the Little Three Gorges ) of the riverside town of Wushan to the Guandukou Town of Batong( Guandukou is 17km west of the riverside town of Badong County ).<\/p>\n

Its cliffs tower over 900 meters, topped by the sharp, jagged peaks on the either bank. A total of 12 peaks are perched on the either side, including Goddess Peak and Peak of the Immortals.<\/p>\n
