Jinli Gully in Wuhan is a gathering place to experience the Tujia ethnic style

The weather in Wuhan can really only be described as a furnace during these months ! If you're looking for a place that's relatively close, with a good cost-performance ratio to relax, then I definitely recommend you check out Jinli Gully. My family and I took advantage of the weekend to embark on this wonderful journey! We stayed here for two days and one night, and it felt pretty good. Let me share my genuine feelings with you: 🏞 Must-try attractions Boat tour Right at the entrance of the scenic area is the Moon Appreciation Lake The boat can take you directly to Moonlight Bridge, then take the train at Jinli Station High-altitude glass drift Many scenic spots in Wuhan have it, including Mulan Heaven Pool and Qingliangzhai, personally, I think they are all similar, all featuring 360° high-altitude rotation + glass tunnel, quite thrilling Water train The same type of water train as in 'Spirited Away' Take the train to enjoy the scenery along the way Shenniu Creek Canyon Drifting An eight-kilometer drift, with a 600-meter elevation drop Along the way, you'll see Shenniu Pavilion, Shenniu Rock, Shenniu Waterfall, beautiful scenery without the scorching sun Children under one meter are not allowed to drift!

The small attractions inside all charge separately, you don't have to play them all 4. You need to 🧗 climb high stairs, wear a pair of comfortable hiking shoes 👟 5. Remember to bring a change of clothes for drifting, wear hole shoes
