In Gonghe County, Hainan Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture, Qinghai Province, the Yellow River meanders through the expansive Qinghai Grassland and enters the first gorge of its canyon area—the Longyang Gorge, one breathtaking natural wonder on the Qinghai-Xizang Plateau!

In Tibetan, “Longyang” translates to “steep gully.” The entrance to this gorge measures only 30 meters in width, while its towering walls rise nearly 200 meters high. Here, the river remains its authentic hue of jade green. Clear waters flow and twist between the canyon walls, creating a splendid landscape.
