Yunnan Trip (Part Five)

Headed to the Tiger Leaping Gorge after we had our lunch. Tiger Leaping Gorge is considered as the world's deepest canyon. The name, Tiger Leaping Gorge comes from a story where a tiger trying to leap across the narrowest part of the gorge.

Walking down the stairs and with the glaze of the sun, I couldn't really identify the next step from the other. Walked quite slow because I was afraid that I might roll down from the stairs. And getting closer to the strong current.

We were looking from Shangri-la. The opposite area is under Lijiang.

Upon walking back, we could see a lot of people being carried up. A lot of carriers sitting there and waiting for the tourists. Started huffing and puffing when I was walking up. Though carrier is a better option, but I feel that it's kinda cruel to hire the carriers to carry you up where the carriers are all so skinny. 

Continued our journey to Shangri-la after this.
