Enjoy the eye-catching scenery as you pass Iron Chain Bridge in the town of Stone Drum. It gets its name from the Iron Chains that it’s built of. Also notice the golden-brown wheat fields and haystacks in the area. Enjoy your lunch at a local restaurant. After the rest, travel about another 24 miles (40 km) and you will reach Tiger Leaping Gorge, one of the world’s deepest gorges. Have the chance to walk about 1.5 miles (2.6 km) to the Tiger Leaping Rock.
