3Yangtze River, China
The Yangtze River, Asia’s longest river, flows through some of China’s most dramatic and diverse landscapes. Starting in the Tibetan Plateau, the Yangtze cuts through gorges, forests, and fertile plains before reaching the East China Sea. The river is famous for the Three Gorges region, where steep cliffs and lush green hills rise sharply from the water, creating a breathtakingly beautiful scene.
In addition to its natural beauty, the Yangtze River is a vital cultural and historical artery for China, with ancient towns, temples, and pagodas scattered along its banks. The combination of awe-inspiring landscapes and cultural heritage makes the Yangtze one of the most beautiful and significant rivers in the world.
