Lingguan Gorge
灵官峡
A gorge on the upper Jialing River in Feng County, where the Baocheng Railway runs along the cliffs. It combines the remains of an ancient plank road with railway scenery.
Lingguan Gorge lies on the upper reaches of the Jialing River in Feng County. Steep cliffs stand on both sides, and the river cuts through the gorge. The Baocheng Railway and the ancient Chencang Road were built along the gorge, so you can see trains crossing bridges and passing through tunnels. Du Pengcheng's novel “Night Passage through Lingguan Gorge” tells the story of building the Baocheng Railway. The gorge has walking trails and viewpoints, suitable for short tours and train photography. Admission follows official announcements. The gorge is about 10 km from Feng County seat and about 1.5 hours' drive from Baoji city. It can be combined with the night scene in Feng County town and the Jialing River source.
