"Leaving Baidi at dawn amid clouds of rosy hue, I return to Jiangling a thousand li away in a single day." Following the verses of the poet Li Bai, visitors can experience the unique charm of the Yangtze River Three Gorges International Golden Tourism Belt.

On July 28, a special promotion event for the "Magnificent Yangtze, Poetic and Picturesque Three Gorges" route, part of the premium tourism offerings of the Bashu Cultural Tourism Corridor, was held at the White Emperor City and Qutang Gorge Scenic Area in Fengjie County, Chongqing. Sichuan Province and Chongqing Municipality jointly launched a series of premium routes that link the scenic beauty of the Bashu region along the main artery of the Yangtze River, exploring the rich Bashu culture embedded within its mountains and rivers.

Scene of the event

The main stage of the event was set beneath White Emperor City and beside Kuimen Gate, with the surging river waters serving as the backdrop and towering peaks stretching a thousand meters high acting as the curtain, creating a seamless blend of cultural heritage sites and natural wonders. Centered on the poetry of Li Bai, the event invited cultural and tourism authorities from Guangyuan, Jiangyou, and Santai in Mianyang to promote highlight destinations along the Great Shu Road tourist route, organically integrating the poetic and artistic legacy of the Three Gorges' winding river valleys with the majestic passes and strategic fortresses of the ancient Shu Road.

Fengjie County in Chongqing presented "Wishes Fulfilled in the City of Poetry", a time-traveling performance spanning millennia that recreated the timeless poetic sentiments left by Li Bai and Du Fu during their stays in Kuizhou. Meanwhile, Yunyang County showcased "Three Heroes Praising Yunyang", using distinctive folk art forms to narrate local customs, demonstrating the enduring cultural lineage that has united the Bashu region since ancient times.

Under the framework of the joint mechanism for building the Bashu Cultural Tourism Corridor, Sichuan and Chongqing have continuously collaborated in recent years to carry out cultural and tourism promotional activities, uncovering more hidden gem destinations across the region. This event also partnered with various cultural and creative organizations and specialty agricultural product vendors along the Yangtze River to enrich the supply of cultural and tourism products.
