Xiaoqikong scenic spot

Xiaoqikong, which means "bridge with seven little arches", is renowned as a wonderful summer resort in Libo county, Southwest China’s Guizhou province.

Located about 28 kilometers to the southwest of Libo, Xiaoqikong scenic area is a national reserve featuring karst landforms.

The area is covered by old-growth forests interwoven with torrential flows, deep valleys and green mountains. It is endowed with beautiful raw forests rarely seen in subtropical zones and was thus listed as a UNESCO World Natural Heritage Site in June 2007.

Exhibiting a wide array of waterfalls, streams, lakes, forests and caves, the 12-kilometer-long Xiaoqikong Scenic Zone also stands out for its delicacy, and is highly reputed as a miniature garden. Visitors will marvel at the spectacular sights of the ancient stone bridge from which the attraction received its name.
