About a third of the way through the Wu Xia, we took an excursion on small boats on the "Goddess Stream", a small tributary that flows through a narrow gorge into the Yangtze across the river from the Goddess peak.

 |
| The stream is a narrow channel, but filled with tourist boats. Each boat can seat about 20 passengers. |
 |
| From time to time this sort of cave-like "flowstone" formation was found along crevices in the gorge walls. |
 |
| In places the channel was so narrow that only one boat at a time could navigate the waters. |
 |
| Boats going single file through a narrow passage. |
 |
| More narrow passages. |
 |
| There's not much room to maneuver. |
 |
| In a few places, domestic goats paid no attention as we passed by. |
