Shennongjia.

Shennongjia lies in western Hubei. Forest types change with altitude, creating varied habitats for plants and animals. The administrative forestry district and the World Heritage property are different geographical identities; the latter also includes a Badong component. The Divine Farmer tradition belongs to the name’s cultural history, while conservation and botanical research provide another way to understand the living landscape.
