First Bend of Daling River
凌河第一湾
A large U-shaped bend where the Daling River winds around a mountain in Kazuo. Viewpoints overlook the whole bend, making it a popular self-drive photo stop in western Liaoning.
The First Bend of the Daling River lies in Kazuo County, where the river curves around a mountain into a nearly closed loop. Farmland and forest line both banks. From the summit viewpoint you can see the whole bend. Greenery and water color are best in summer and autumn, and evening backlit shots look excellent. The viewpoint is free. It must be reached by car, and the final stretch is a rural road. It is about 70 kilometers from Chaoyang city and can be combined with the Dongshanzui Site and Niuheliang into a one-day self-drive route.
