Daxiao Langou
大小兰沟
Two forested gorges south of Daba that shelter many rare plants. Known as the "Pearl of Bashan" and a living gene bank for species.
Daxiao Langou is made up of the Da Langou and Xiao Langou gorges in the Daba section of Guangwu Mountain. Its vegetation forms a complete vertical zonation, and it is home to rare plants such as the dove tree and yew. It has earned the nicknames "Forest Treasure Chest" and "Germplasm Gene Bank for Rare Species." Streams, waterfalls, and primeval forest connect throughout the gorges. Compared with Heixiong Valley, it sees fewer visitors and feels more serene, and its autumn colors are richly layered. Sightseeing shuttles run to and from the Daba transfer center, and the hike takes about 2 hours.
