They have many megatonnes of awesome for the rest of the world, but only the Chinese themselves will enjoy it.

Rediscovered only recently, it has many species of endemic plants, found only in the gorge, and in the past was used as a hideout by local bandits, whose treasure is occasionally still found in the cliff-side caves.

TREASURE CAVES.

I've actually been around here! I went to a Panda Study Centre and actually worked there for a couple of weeks. It truly was as breathtaking as it looks! Thank you for reminding me of that time, it was a great part of my life!
