The Mount Wuyi Scenic Area lies to the south of Wuyishan City, Fujian Province. Mount Wuyi is famous for its natural conservation of a large number of ancient plant species, wild animals and reptiles, many of which are peculiar to China. Its tranquil beauty and intact environment offer a refuge to the primitive forest, so it is called the 'Natural Arboretum'. The Mount Wuyi Scenic Area incorporates the Wuyi Canyon Drifting, the Mount Longjing and the Ancient Xiamei Folk Buildings and so on.
Firstly, we come to the Wuyi Canyon which is a good place to
drift along the water. The Wuyi Canyon is 14 kilometers (about 8.70 miles) long
with a drop of 150 meters (about 492 feet) along its length. Tourists may drift
on the water for 6 kilometers (about 3.73 miles). This stretch of water belongs
to Tongmu Brook which is one of the sources of Nine Bends Brook that meanders
between rocks and gorges. When drifting smoothly with the water's flow, you
will appreciate the lush trees on spectacular mountains as well as the fish
swimming in the brook. A refreshing cool breeze brushes past you as you feel
the splash of water upon your face where the water rushes through the narrows
between high cliffs. Altogether an exciting adventure in awe-inspiring
surroundings!
