The Brocade Valley

In this deep valley, flowers are always in full bloom ,which are so brilliant that people call them brocade. The monk "huiyuan" gathered medicinal herbs in this valley far the Jin Dynasty according to legend. Here, we have overline bridge, head-like stone, and beautiful peaks.

The Dragonhead Cliff


Besides a craggy cliff, it springs up some thousand feet out of the ground, rearing in the sky like a dragon head. Standing at the top, one can enjoy a bird's eye view of the millions of steep wall-like stones and hear the surfing of wind in the pine forest mingled with roaring of the waterfalls in the Stone Gate Ravine.

The Suspension Bridge of Stone-Gorge Valley


The Bridge betweenthe two ravines seems a line of artificial rainbow from two mountains, as it was crafed by the invisible hands of gods. Standing on the bridge ,people can look far into the distance.

The Immortal's Cavern

The carven is like a forward stretching hand. The cavern has shrines for idols or ancestral tablets, clear spring, and there are old monarch's halls cavern the hole, Toad stone, Imperial Tablet Pavilion, and clubmoss . This hole gains the name because Lu Tung-pin practiced austerities here and became immortal according to legend.

The Five-old-Man Peak


Five olds peaks exist side by side, like five old men chatting each other. The famous Tang Dynasty poet Libai left us poem about the beautiful scenery here. There are five little peaks coming in every shape before the peak,and tourist can enjoy stone engraving of rock on the peak, and yingke pines here. Seeing from the top of it , there is splendid view of sunrise.If it is foggy, people even can hear "the sound of fog".
