The perpetually mist-covered valleys of the Shennongjia Nature Reserve are home to the world’s only subtropical forests in the central latitudes. The landscape of these places is exceptionally picturesque. If you are a great nature lover, this is one of the most incredibly beautiful places in China for you to visit.

The richness and diversity of flora and fauna can amaze everybody. About 2000 species of wild plants and more than 1200 species of medicinal plants grow on the territory of the reserve. It is also home to many species of wild animals, including more than twenty species of animals that are under state protection. In addition, tourists are attracted by legends about Bigfoot, supposedly living on the territory of the reserve.

The richness and diversity of flora, fauna and the ancient history of Shennongjia are extremely valuable. Therefore, in 1991, the Shennongjia Nature Reserve became part of the worldwide network of biosphere reserves within the framework of the UNESCO international program “Man and the Biosphere”.

Once in the forest region of Shennongjia, you will not only admire the charming rare species of golden monkeys, but you will also be able to climb the highest Shennong Peak in Central China, which is known for its difficult climate change, dense forests, and clear waters. This is an excellent place in China for tourism at any time of the year.
