It is the main habitat of golden monkeys and activity area. The ancient trees on the ridge cover the sky, the waterfalls hang, and the water, light and mountains are integrated into one, and it is so beautiful. The concentration of negative oxygen ions is as high as 160,000/cm3, making it a high-quality "forest oxygen bar"!

Shennong Valley: Valley of Strange Clouds

Shennong Valley is located in the passage of the north and south airflow of Shennongjia, and the weather changes rapidly. There is a deep stream at the mouth of the valley, with stone forests growing like pillars and bamboo shoots. The clouds and mists are unpredictable, and the uncanny craftsmanship is breathtaking. After the Yanshan Movement, as the terrain of Shennongjia continued to rise, the weak parts of the fault continued to be incised, forming a canyon as deep as a kilometer.

Banbiyan has a majestic stone forest landscape and beautiful sub-alpine natural scenery. On both sides of the trail, there are green bamboo forests, red rhododendrons, and velvet meadows. , there are various shapes of craggy and strange rocks as steep as a board.
