About About the place

Shennong Stream Drifting offers a unique and immersive experience of the Three Gorges region. Guests embark on a one-hour tour down the Shennong Stream in small, traditional peapod boats rowed by skilled 'trackers' – local boatmen who have practiced this method for centuries. The journey takes visitors through a narrow gorge with imposing rock cliff faces, providing a glimpse into a bygone era and a serene escape from the modern world. The experience is often described as evocative and historically rich, offering a connection to the region's cultural heritage.
