Tiger Leaping Gorge

Tiger Leaping Gorge, is a canyon that you may not have heard of. It is located in the Yunnan province of China. This gorge is featured in the BBC, Wild China series, which provides phenomenal video footage. Here is a little footage I found but this isn't from the Wild China series.

The gorge, which was named after a story about a Tiger excaping from a hunter by leaping across the river is part of the Three Parallel Rivers of Yunnan Protected Areas, which is a UNESCO World Heritages Site.
The gorge was formed by the powerful Yangtze River, though the gorge is only a small portion of the 3900+ mile long river.
