Tiger Leaping Gorge sits at the junction of the Qinghai-Tibetan Plateau and the Yunnan-Guizhou Plateau in Yunnan Province. It is one of Yunnan's famous tourist spots, tucked neatly between Yulong Snow Mountain and Haba Snow Mountain, which creates a dramatic high-altitude canyon setting.

2. Which mountains flank Tiger Leaping Gorge on both sides?

4. What natural landmark sits at the entrance to the gorge?

At the opening of the gorge, a large boulder called the Herculean pebble appears stranded amid the powerful waves. This rock marks the mouth of the Jinsha River and is a famous distinctive landmark at the gorge entrance for hikers entering the gorge.

5. How wide is the famous rock in the Jinsha River?
