Xiaochibi (Xiandu)
小赤壁
Ochre-red cliffs along the Lian Stream, with clear shallow water below. Carved cliff inscriptions and the Mother-in-law and Daughter-in-law Rock are other famous sights in Xiandu.
Xiaochibi lies downstream of Dinghu Peak in Xiandu Scenic Area. Here the Lian Stream winds past several hundred meters of ochre-red rock walls. The cliffs are steep, and their red color contrasts with the emerald water, which gives the site its name, Little Red Cliff, after the famous Red Cliff. Historical inscriptions are carved into the cliff face, and nearby rocks such as the Mother-in-law and Daughter-in-law Rock each have their own legends. You can walk here along the stream from Zhutan Mountain, or view the cliffs from a bamboo raft drifting downstream. It is included in the Xiandu Scenic Area, and the visit takes about 40 minutes.
