the Nujiang River and Nujiang Great Canyon

the Nujiang River and Nujiang Great Canyon

[Digg] [Print]

The Nujiang River, originating from the south foot of Tangula Mountains, Qinghai Province, is flowing through Tibet and Yunnan, across the border to Burma and finally into the Indian Ocean. The section located in Yunnan Province surges ahead between the Gaoligong Mountain and the Biluo Snow Mountain, which are both at an average altitude of over 3000 meters. Due to huge drop and rapid torrent, the river appears extraordinarily spectacular. With dangerous cliffs on both mountains, the river gallops towards the south like a horse with a huge water discharge 1.6 times of that of the Yellow River every year on average, striking out an oriental grand canyon combining imposing and steep mountains and deep valley.
