Approximately 6,300 kilometers in length, the Yangtze River is ranked as the longest river in China. Originating in the Ching-Kang-Chang Plateau, the Yangtze River cuts through the mountainous Yun-Kwei Plateau, runs a craggy course into the Three Gorges and flows through a great pasture of grassland, then empties into the East China Sea as a giant dragon winding through the whole China. This set depicts five scenic spots of the Yangtze River. The designs of the five stamps are： (1) The Origin of the Yangtze River (2) The Most Abrupt Turn of the Yangtze River (3) Roaring Tiger Gorge (4) Chutang Gorge and (5) Small Three Gorges.
