Ankang's Most Underrated Hidden Gem

😍 This is the most stunning off-the-beaten-path spot I've visited recently || Canglong Gorge

This is China's first moss-themed scenic area, with over 80 species of moss covering the ground.
Tree trunks are covered in moss, forming a fuzzy "green carpet,"
as if stepping into a fairy tale world;

📍 Address: Tongchewan Town, Ningshan County, Ankang City, Shaanxi Province
🎫 Tickets: Canglong Gorge ticket 58 + shuttle bus 20 (group special price 25)
🚗 From Xi’an → Xi-Han Expressway → Ningshan Toll Station → turn right and drive 3 km along National Highway G210 to arrive
🏮 Enter from the scenic area entrance, follow the stream and boardwalk, enjoy moss, waterfalls, and unique rocks along the way. You can visit attractions like the Couple Trees and Shadow Bridge, and finally reach the viewing platform at the end of the gorge to overlook the entire gorge’s beauty.
⚠ The gorge has several shallow pools and stone ponds; the water is cool, perfect for kids to catch small fish and splash around.

📌 Nearby Attractions:
✅ Jinya Floating Boat City God Temple
A religious site combining Buddhism and Taoism, it has survived 47 floods (historical records available). Floodwaters automatically divert around the temple, which has never been submerged.

Experience a rice field mini train, tour and photograph pastoral scenery, a hidden paradise deep in the mountains of Shaanxi.
