Ouyang Xiu, a famous political writer in the Northern Song Dynasty, left a famous sentence "The beauty of Xiling Mountain is in the world".

It is a legendary land of the dead, a treasure house of folk culture and art integrating Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism, and a bright pearl on the golden tourist belt of the Three Gorges of the Yangtze River in Chongqing.

5.Goddess Creek

The scenery is amazing. Five peaks, namely Cuiping, Feng Fei, Yun Qi, Denggao and Jingtan, are scattered on both sides of the stream. In the middle reaches of Goddess Creek, there is a rising peak on the south bank and a rising peak in the northwest. The mountains are green, the clouds are covered with fog, and the river is surrounded by nine rings, circling in our intestines. There are many places where "there is no road to doubt, and there is a village in the dark", which deserves to be called a strange gorge in the gorge and a unique scene in the landscape.
