Where the Tiger Leaped and the Mountains Roar🐯🏔

#yunnanspots
I didn’t hike the full trail, but visiting Tiger Leaping Gorge was still absolutely unforgettable. 💨 Standing at the viewpoint and watching the Jinsha River crash through the narrow canyon between Jade Dragon Snow Mountain and Haba Snow Mountain felt like witnessing the raw power of nature up close. ⚡

The gorge is so dramatic — steep cliffs rise on both sides, and the water below rushes with incredible force. You can feel the ground slightly tremble as it hits the rocks! 🌪️ According to legend, a tiger once jumped across this gorge to escape a hunter, and after seeing the gap, I can’t believe how fearless that tiger must’ve been. 🐅

The viewpoint area is easy to access and offers plenty of spots to take in the scenery, snap photos, or just stand there in awe. 📸✨ It’s one of those places that reminds you how small you are compared to the world around you — and that’s exactly what makes it so special. 💙

Would you dare to visit where the tiger once leaped? 👣
