As temperatures remain high, many residents have been heading to nearby rivers and mountain areas to cool off. Yuquan River in Jiangdong Subdistrict, Fuling District, has become a popular summer destination thanks to its clear water and the natural coolness of its surrounding gorge.

The riverbank was bustling with visitors on July 26. In the crystal-clear shallows, parents played with their children, groups of friends splashed through the water and visitors stopped to take photographs.Dense trees and vegetation line both sides of the gorge, while cool mountain breezes offer welcome relief from the summer heat.

Safety reminder: When visiting outdoor swimming and waterside areas, stay alert to potential hazards, keep a close watch on children and older family members, and take appropriate precautions against heat and sun exposure.
