Xiangxi Gu miao River originates from Huayuan County, Xiangxi. According to legend, She is the daughter of mars Chiyou. After hearing that her father was defeated and was killed by Yellow Emperor using chains, she came to Chong Moutain, in which his father’s chains were abandoned. At that time, Chiyou became a god and was on the way to heaven. The daughter felt desperately sad and held her father’s feet to avoid his leaving. Chiyou cannot bear to leave then, so he magically changed to Stones together with troops. After that, The daughter became a river there.

Xiangxi Gu miao River is the mother river of Miao people. She has stubborn characteristics and broad mind. Gu miao River looks dazzling and picturesque. Over there, thick forest and high mountains are here and there, which make its summer without too high heat and winter without severe cold. Its annual temperature is about 11.4 ℃. The average temperature in summer does not exceed 30 ℃. So Xiangxi Gu miao River is also a good choice for being away for summer holidays.
