｜Found slow living in a landscape painting!

Family! Finally visited the much-anticipated Three Gorges Family, and unexpectedly, the slow pace here completely healed me!

🌊 Must-try list:

1. Walk by Longjin Creek, feel like you're traveling inside a painting
The creek water is as clear as jelly! The black-awning boat slowly glides by, a Tujia girl stands at the bow singing, her voice echoing through the valley. There are also monkeys playing in the forest (remember to keep your snacks safe, they are very clever).
2. View the landscape from the top of Bawang Village
A ten-minute climb lets you overlook the entire Mingyue Bay, where the Yangtze River makes a perfect bend! In the village, old craftsmen do blacksmithing and perform shadow puppetry, instantly transporting you back to ancient times.
3. Wedding performance full of laughter and tears
The bride in red cries as she gets married, the crowd competes to catch the embroidered ball, and I was pulled in to be the "groom"—this interactive experience was so much fun!

📝 Practical tips:
✅ Be sure to take the ferry in and out; the river view is excellent
✅ Recommended to spend 4-5 hours, wear comfortable sneakers
✅ Signal is weak inside the scenic area, save your ticket QR code in advance
✅ Bring a light jacket; it’s much cooler by the creek than in the city

This place is really perfect for relaxing! Green mountains and clear waters combined with Tujia culture, every corner feels like a carefully arranged movie scene. Don’t know where to go this weekend? This is definitely the right choice!

(ps: There aren’t many tourists now, no need to fight for photo spots, hurry up!)
