Tiger Leaping Gorge Yunnan China

Tiger Leaping Gorge or Hu Tiao Xiao, in amongst the foothills of the Himalayan mountains near Daju, Yunnan, China. The Jinsha Jiang river cuts through the soft rocks creating dramatic steep gorges. At one point in the centre of the river a hard piece of granite which eroded at a much slower pace to the surrounding rock, rises out of the river pushing the fast flowing water up in a dramatic white water rapids. Tiger Leaping Gorge is a popular tourist destination where many Chinese travel to see the landscape named after their most honoured animal. (photo by Mike Kemp/In Pictures via Getty Images Images)
