Tiger Leaping Gorge was named after the Tiger Leaping Village because it was near the village. Tiger Leaping Village was also called Tiger Killing Village. Its original name was Black Bear Creek because it was named after a black bear that once came out in the vicinity. Later, the people found that it was not a nice name, and they changed it to Four Paths Creek. Therefore, on the Baidu map, the village was called Four Paths Creek. But if a foreigner came and asked where Four Paths Creek was, most of them will receive an eye roll instead.

The people of Four Paths Creek were all proud of Tiger Killing Village, and they live in Tiger Leaping Village.

Similarly, the Four Paths River was also a name that only existed on the map.
