Tianyin Shinto
Tianyin Shinto was originally an ancient path hidden in the ridge of Chijia Mountain. It has now been constructed as a tourist sightseeing road that leads directly to the top of the Three Gorges, with a total length of 488 meters and a width of 2.5 meters. On both sides of the road, there are various small landscapes and interactive experiences related to music and cultural elements for tourists.
Qingshi Slope
On the Chijia Mountain, there is a slope covered with a variety of strange and diverse stones, all of which have an external shape like chimes. The mountain wind blows by, and these stones emit beautiful music, hence the name Qingshi Slope.
Legend has it that when Kui created the Eight Tones, he had no intention of creating "stone tones" but rather "water tones". However, due to the difficulty in controlling water, let alone using it in music. After Kui's failure, he felt depressed and passed by Qingshi Slope. He saw a mountain spring on the slope and thought of the problem of "water sound", so he stopped and pondered.
Kui stood on the slope for a day and a night, because the rocks on the mountain were strange. The wind and rain passed through here, and he was "processed" by the rocks here, turning them into various wonderful sounds. Kui was pleasantly surprised and spent more than a month creating "Shi Yin", which refers to the sound produced by the hair of a stone.
Kuimen Ancient Elephant Museum
The Kuimen ancient elephant fossil was accidentally discovered by villagers excavating a reservoir in Qutang Third Team, Baidi Township, Fengjie County in September 1990. With the timely rescue and protection of the Baidi City Museum, the ancient elephant fossil was fully excavated and unearthed. According to the determination of experts from the Institute of Vertebrate Paleontology and Paleoanthropology of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, it is a saber tooth elephant fossil of elephant like animals about 2 million years ago. As a specific individual, this old saber tooth elephant fossil is named "Kuimen Ancient Elephant". Professor Jia Lanpo, a world-famous scholar, a leading figure in Chinese ancient anthropology and a 90 year old academician of the CAS Member, inscribed the name of Kuimen Museum, the first museum in China to display long nosed animals.
So far, the Kuimen ancient elephant is the only complete skeleton unearthed of the elephant like sabertooth, providing valuable information for the study of elephant like sabertooth and the environment and climate change in the Three Gorges Reservoir area, and has high research value.
Chijia Building
This building was built in 1995 and is named after its location at the foot of Chijia Mountain. It is one of the three famous buildings in Fengjie (including Qixing Building and Wangjiang Building). The Red Armored Tower, facing the mountains and the river, is a great place to admire the majestic appearance of Kuimen. When visiting this building, do not overlook three elements: poetic culture, artillery, and diao monkey. The sound of apes on both sides of the strait cannot be stopped, and the light boat has crossed thousands of mountains. "Li Bai's poem has already told us that this place has been the home of apes and monkeys since ancient times. The melon seeds, peanuts, and even the fluorescence of your phone that you carry will attract these cute little ones to approach you.
Entering Xiapo
Stepping out of the Red Armored Tower, the slope ahead is called "Entering the Gorge Slope". Here, there used to be horse gangs selling salt tea, the figures of merchants traveling between Sichuan and Chongqing, and even the brave and skilled Yang family general. Now, the sound of horse hooves is far away, only the monkeys and monkeys on the slope are still playing and climbing.
In the fourth year of the Jiayou reign of the Song Dynasty, Su Shi, after his mother's funeral, returned to Beijing from Shu with his younger brother Su Zhe and his father Su Xun in September. In winter, they sailed through the Three Gorges and, upon entering the Holy Mother Spring at Qutang Gorge, prayed to God for blessings before preparing to head east into the gorge. Due to the treacherous river water, smooth passage is not possible. Father and son are stranded on the slope of the north bank. The treacherous nature of Qutang amazed Su Shi, so he wrote a poem. Father Su Xun is old, why is this? Su Shi wrote, "At the beginning of entering the gorge, there was no road, and the mountains suddenly seemed like niches." He then replied smoothly, "Entering the gorge slope. The Xiapo is named after this.
Danqing Cliff
In 1998, a group of famous painters, entrusted by the state, came to Kuimen to collect art and completed the fifth set of paintings worth 10 yuan. Built a painting platform here, enduring the sun and rain, and after several months of hardship, completed the heavy task. The fifth set of 10 yuan RMB was successfully issued in 1999. Afterwards, this place was called Danqing Cliff. The reason why the painters set up the painting platform here indicates that it is the best angle to view the Kuimen Grand View.
Qingyun Ladder
Wearing Xie Gong's clogs and climbing the Qingyun ladder, "this is a poem by Li Bai. Li Bai climbed Mount Tianmao with the help of this dream green cloud ladder, while at the age of 25, he climbed Mount Chijia with the help of a real green cloud ladder. Back then, Li Bai sailed here, and the steepness of Qutang and the towering red armor made him stop. He wants to climb up Chijia Mountain and enjoy the beautiful scenery of the Three Gorges. The common people chiseled a steep ladder on the cliff, allowing him to soar to the top of the Three Gorges and write the magnificent poem "Flying steps to the top, with no smoke in sight.
Caiyun Platform
This is the largest observation platform at the top of the Three Gorges. Standing on the 'Caiyun Terrace', one will think of Li Bai's poem 'Farewell to Emperor Bai, Amidst the colorful clouds, the thousand mile long Jiangling is returned in a day'. Standing on the platform, visitors can look around and be pleasantly surprised by every angle. Every season is a beautiful painting with different styles. In spring, the mountain flowers are in full bloom, in summer, the greenery expresses emotions, in autumn, the mountains are covered in red leaves like colorful clouds, and in winter, looking at the snow capped mountains from afar and overlooking the calm and clear Yangtze River.
