How to Protect the Gorge
!
Tiger Leaping Gorge
is one of the world’s top ten popular trekking areas. At the centre of China's
three great rivers nature heritage park, Tiger Leaping Gorge is the home to a
great number of rare animals and plants and has been designated a
provincial-level nature reserve. Because of the fragility and importance of this
Nature Reserve, all visitors are asked to follow this Code of Conduct so as to
ensure the Area's biodiversity and cultural heritage is effectively
protected. We know that
popular guide book "lonely planet" in English version from 1988- 2008, not mentioned about how to
take care of the nature or Protact the Gorge, the "wikitravel.org/en/Tiger Leaping Gorge" public web
even don't care and mentioned about how to keep the area nature...?
Please help to protect the fragile ecosystem and wildlife of the
area by following the guidelines set out below.
Environmental
Conservation
All travelers
visiting the nature reserve should not be larger than 15 people per group and
should always be accompanied by a local guide. When you are in the nature
reserve, please follow the regulations and laws of the reserve:
-
Do not throw
trash on the ground
-
Do not take any
"souvenirs" or specimens from the wild
-
Put all trash
in the designated places
-
Do not cut or
dig up trees or bushes
-
Do not start
any fires within the Nature Reserve.
-
Support the
local enterprises rather than the businesses set up with outside money
(recognizable by the architecture which is unsuited to the local
environment).
-
Do not support
businesses which use graffiti advertising throughout the gorge
-
Support the
businesses run by the locals, who maintain the environment and the heritage
of the gorge. Cheap and dirty modern concrete businesses are detrimental to
this heritage and to the environment.
-
Take good care
of the businesses who help you get the right information.
-
Take good care
of the quality products and the people who provide them.
-
Give thought to
the people living in the gorge and give them your business, so that they may
expand the gorge facilities in a manner consistent with their heritage and
harmonious with the environment. If you are a visitor coming to do research,
training, or filming, please get permission from the Nature Reserve staff.
You can buy local products to help improve the lives of local people, but
please do not buy endangered wildlife products such as fur, feathers, and
leather.
-
When you are
watching the birds, please do not wear bright clothing, make loud noises or
frighten or feed the birds. Please do not come within 100 meters of the
birds.
-
Cultural
Conservation: Remember to respect the property rights of the local
people. Try to be helpful to each other, do not just take from the local
people.
-
Respect the
local people and their customs and religion. Do not touch things before you
get permission, and do not be loud and disrespectful in the village.
-
Ask permission
before you take pictures in the villages, especially when you take pictures
of people.
-
Respect holy
and sacred places and do not touch or move religious objects.
-
Giving to
children only encourages begging. A donation to our Conservation and
Community Development Fund is a more constructive way to help. Visitors who
value local traditions encourage the local pride and maintain local
cultures. So please show an interest in the culture of the local people and
an interest in understanding their traditions.
