Xiaoqikong Scenic Area - Wolongtan

At the exit of Wolong River, there is Wolong Lake. The underground river gushes out from the bottom of the cliff, and there is no trace of it on the surface of the lake. There is only the rolling waterfall like an avalanche on the dam and the endless canal water outside the lake. There are strange rocks and trees standing by the lake, and ancient trees are dense. Outside the lake, the sound of water roars, and it is foggy and rainy. The surrounding mountains are tightly locked. The water pool is like an underground abyss. Even when there is a flood, the surface of the pool is as calm as a mirror. There is a man-made waterfall in Wolong Lake, which is the iconic attraction of Xiaoqikong Scenic Area.

After entering the scenic area, we took a bus to the first scenic spot, Wolongtan. The ride was not long. After getting off the bus, we needed to walk a short distance to reach the scenic spot. When a pool of emerald green water appeared in front of us, we had to admit that we were really amazed by it. We have not been to Jiuzhaigou yet, but we have only seen a film about Jiuzhaigou on TV. The water in Jiuzhaigou in the film should be this color. We were amazed as soon as we entered the scenic area. This feeling is the return to the essence of travel, which makes people feel happy and look forward to the next trip. Instead of entering the scenic area, we see nothing but people, which makes people lose interest.

This pool of "emerald" is just the beginning of the Wolongtan Scenic Area. If you continue walking along the wooden plank road and savor it carefully, you will discover more wonderful things.

You can go down to the bottom of Wolong Lake from here. We followed the crowd and walked down to admire Wolong Lake up close.

If you come here in summer, you can take off your shoes and wade in the stream. What's particularly magical is that the water is emerald green when you look at it from above, but it becomes colorless and transparent when you get down. If time wasn't limited, I really want to stay here for a while. When we take the bus back to the gate of the scenic area in the afternoon, we will pass by Wolongtan again. The emerald green stream flows quietly, and it seems that the stream that is not disturbed by people exudes more charm. If you have time, I suggest you visit Wolongtan in the afternoon, and I will book it for you!

We entered from the east gate and took a bus to the bottom of Wolongtan, which took 25 minutes. We planned to walk down from the highest point. As soon as we got off the bus, we heard the roar of water and the mist. We walked down the stone steps and a clear green waterfall suddenly appeared in front of us! Exclamations came one after another, and they all said that Xiaoqikong should be put first in the itinerary. It is said that there are more than 12,000 negative oxygen ions per cubic meter of air here. It is really intoxicating. It is a journey to cleanse the lungs. I breathed in big gulps and wished I could take a few sacks home.

Wolongtan: The surface of the pond is not big. From the surface, it is just the source of Wolong River. In recent years, a dam has been built here to divert water for power generation and then flow into Xiangshui River, becoming the total water source of the two rivers. The water color changes from light blue to light blue and dark blue under the light of a cloudy day. There are strange rocks and trees standing by the pond, and ancient trees are dense. Surrounded by high mountains, the underground river gushes out at the bottom of the cliff and rushes down from the dam built for water diversion and power generation. The sound of water roars and the rain and fog are hazy. The pond is like an underground abyss, with the artistic conception of a dragon's lair and a tiger's den. Whenever a mountain torrent breaks out, the waves surge and rush, just like a dragon showing its might, but the surface of the pond is still as calm as a mirror.

Wolongtan in Xiaoqikong Scenic Area was originally named Wenglongtan. It is the exit of the karst underground river Wolong River and a classic landscape of Xiaoqikong Scenic Area. The underground river gushes out from the bottom of the cliff. The surface of the pond seems calm. The water seems to be stagnant and silent when it flows here. The water in the pond meanders along the mountain. Looking down from a high place, it looks like a green dragon, hence the name Wolongtan. The water of Wolongtan is rich and varied in color. The shore is light green, the center of the pond is light blue, and the foot of the mountain is dark green. Under different weather and light conditions, the entire pond water will also show colors such as sapphire blue or emerald green, like a huge and unpredictable gem. There are strange rocks, strange trees, and ancient trees on the edge of the pond. The surrounding mountains are tightly locked, which contrasts with the green pond water, forming a magnificent and beautiful green landscape picture.

Wolongtan is the outlet of the Taste underground river - Wolong River. From the surface, it is only the source of the Wolong River.

The underground river gushes out from the bottom of the cliff, and there is no trace of it on the surface of the lake. It was already 6:30 when I finished visiting here. I heard from the staff that they would wait until the last tourist finished visiting before they could go off work. It takes about half an hour to take a bus from Wolongtan back to the East Gate.

Wolongtan - a must-visit in the scenic area. It is said that under certain weather conditions, you can take photos of bright blue like a gem. I didn't get to see the sapphire blue this time, but the sapphire green is also good.

The karst underground river is the outlet of the Wolong River. The underground river gushes out from the bottom of the cliff, and there is no trace of it on the surface of the pool. The pool is like an underground abyss. Even when there is a flood, the surface of the pool is as calm as a mirror.

It's so beautiful, just like Jiuzhaigou, but the ticket price is cheaper. I met a lady from Heilongjiang who likes hiking. She walked the whole way and was exhausted. One scenic spot was under renovation so I didn't go in. The others were already very beautiful.

After watching this, I feel that Huangguoshu is very ordinary

Wolongtan is also a landmark attraction of Xiaoqikong. The blue-green water of the pond is clear and bright, giving a feeling of Jiuzhaigou.

It can be considered a positive example of man-made natural landscape.

A must-visit spot at the west gate of Xiaoqikong Scenic Area, very good

The sky blue lake is so beautiful

It is definitely worth a visit, especially during the summer vacation. The children also had a lot of fun. It is simply a world of water, beautiful and cool.

Wolongtan is an artificial dam built for hydroelectric power generation.

Wolongtan is really beautiful. I originally thought it was just green water, but the scenery was beyond my imagination!

Wolongtan is the last attraction to visit after entering the Xiaoqikong Scenic Area from the East Gate. It is the first attraction after entering the West Gate. There are many tour groups. It was already 1pm when we walked over, and most of the day tour groups from Guiyang had just entered. It was crowded and there was no mood to sit there and watch the water flow. After taking a few photos, we took the sightseeing bus directly back to the East Gate. But the scenery is still very beautiful

The Little Jiuzhaigou in Guizhou is very beautiful. It has waterfalls, waterfalls, and waterfalls.

A place you can’t see once you go there, a mythical place.

Although it is a man-made waterfall and not as quaint as the Seven-Arch Ancient Bridge, it still has a stunning beauty.

The most photogenic place in the promotional photos of Xiaoqikong is this. The water here is very spiritual, as blue and transparent as jade, and it is full of smoke. It is really awesome to be a place that dares to compare with Jiuzhaigou (actually I have not been to Jiuzhaigou).

The last stop is Wolongtan, which is a landscape created by artificial dams for hydroelectric power generation. But do you think Wolongtan is the only landscape there? You must go on!!! There is also a waterfall nearby!! Many people will miss it.

"Wolongtan" is the outlet of the karst underground river "Wolong River". "Wolong River" gushes out from the bottom of the pool. Due to an artificially built circular rolling dam, the surface of the pool is like a mirror, without a single ripple. "Wolongtan" is surrounded by dense forests, and the water is dark blue, flowing out of the dam top, like a thousand strands of beads hanging on the dam wall. The water roars and the mist rises, which is both spectacular and beautiful. Standing on the plank road by the river and looking at "Wolongtan" on the "Wolong River" from a distance, it really looks like a sapphire on a wish-fulfilling ruyi.

Wolongtan. Formerly known as Wenglongtan, it is the outlet of the karst underground river - Wolong River. From the surface, it is only the source of Wolong River. In recent years, a dam has been built here to divert water for power generation and then flow into Xiangshui River, becoming the total water source of the two rivers. The underground river gushes out from the bottom of the cliff, and there is no trace of it on the surface of the pond. Only the rolling water waterfall like an avalanche on the dam and the endless canal water outside the pond can feel the Wolong River churning at the bottom of the pond. There are strange rocks and trees standing by the pond, and ancient trees are dense. Outside the pond, the water roars, the fog and rain are hazy, and the surrounding mountains are tightly locked. The pond is like an underground abyss. Even when there is a flood, the surface of the pond is as calm as a mirror.

The water of Wolongtan Lake is blue-green and there are small waterfalls

The water of Wolongtan is deep and the surface is as stunningly green as jade. It appears to be still, but cascades down to the dam like pearls falling on a jade plate, with the sound of waves shaking the sky and being endless.

Wolongtan in winter is tranquil, blue and stunning.

Wolongtan is different from the previous waterfalls. The waterfall here is like a trickling stream, and it is also very beautiful.

It is said to be one of the filming locations for the old version of Journey to the West. After getting off the sightseeing bus and passing a wooden plank road, you will see the clear blue water and a dragon lying in it, which is very beautiful.

Wolongtan has the feeling of clear water and blue sky. Although it is a man-made waterfall, it does not hinder its beauty.

The water upstream is turquoise and calm, suddenly falling into a deep pool like a pearl curtain falling, while the water downstream is crystal clear.

There is Wolong Pond at the entrance of Wolong River. If you follow the clear canal water on one side of the plank road and go forward, you will see Wolong Pond.

The waterfall is very beautifully curved, and the fact that it is a semi-artificial landscape does not affect the perception of it. The emerald green Wolong Pond above the waterfall is quiet, and the sound of water at the waterfall is magnificent. The combination of stillness and movement creates the unique beauty of Wolong Pond.

The bamboo forest and clear water of Wolongtan, coupled with the melodious feeling of hearing the falling water before seeing the curtain waterfall, are like a fairyland. It is not an exaggeration to call it a paradise on earth. The most beautiful Wolongtan is indescribable and beyond words.

Wolongtan, formerly known as Wenglongtan, is located in Xiaoqikong Scenic Area. It is the exit of the karst underground river - Wolong River. The underground river gushes out from the bottom of the cliff, and there is no trace on the surface of the pond. Only the rolling water waterfall of Wolong Dam like an avalanche can be seen, and the canal water flowing outside the pond can feel the Wolong River churning at the bottom of the pond. There are strange rocks and trees standing by the pond, and ancient trees are dense. The sound of water roars outside the pond, and it is foggy and rainy. The surrounding mountains are locked. The pond is like an underground abyss. Even when there is a flood, the surface of the pond is as calm as a mirror. Wolong Waterfall is a man-made waterfall. This Wolongtan waterfall is quite peculiar. The water upstream seems to be still, and then suddenly falls into the deep pool.

Personally, I think this waterfall is more worth seeing than Xiaoqikong.

It is as beautiful as a fairyland, with blue lake, verdant bamboo forest and misty clouds.

The scenic spot is not big, but the scenery is not inferior at all, it is worth a visit

After checking your ticket, you need to take a shuttle bus, which takes about three or four minutes.

Walking along the wooden plank road, you will feel like you are in Jiuzhaigou. Because there are a lot of algae underneath, which release a lot of copper ions and appear blue, the water is blue and clear, and you can clearly see the plants and reflections underneath.

Wolongtan and the ancient bridge are the signature attractions of the Xiaoqikong Scenic Area. The lake water is emerald green and the waterfall is like smoke. It would definitely be more beautiful if the water was bigger.

The scenery of Wolongtan is great, the water is emerald green, and it is an excellent place for photography.

Wolongtan is the exit of Wolong River. Wolongtan is the most anticipated spot in Xiaoqikong Scenic Area. After getting off the bus, you still have to walk a short distance to get there.

When I arrived at Wolongtan at 12:30, the number of tourists was already saturated. I didn't want to squeeze in, so I took a photo and went back. There are so many people even if it's not a holiday. If it happens to be a holiday, you can't get in.

Taking the sightseeing bus from Wolongtan can only get you to the entrance of the Daqikong scenic area. Unfortunately, the Daqikong was under maintenance at that time and could not be visited.

The emerald green water of Wolongtan is like a piece of silk. You can go rafting here.

Wolongtan is pretty good, the water is very clear and beautiful.

I particularly love this place and really want to stay here for a few days.

I think Wolongtan is the most classic and amazing scenic spot in Xiaoqikong. With a little filter, it is so beautiful. After I posted the picture below on WeChat Moments, my friend said that it looked like a calendar. Haha, it is indeed a bit...

The waterfall is constantly flowing and very spectacular, with green mountains and clear water in the distance. It is worth a visit.

There were so many people, all of them were tour guides holding small flags. We followed the crowd to Wolongtan. This place would be very beautiful if it didn't rain, but unfortunately, the beautiful green mountains and green waters turned into yellow water, and the color in the photos was, well, very funny.

This is the most beautiful place I have visited that day. Some people say it is a small Jiuzhaigou. The water in the lake is clear and blue. It was very calm in front, but suddenly a 90-degree dam was erected. The waterfall was like an avalanche, making it turbulent. The water flowed out and became the Wolong River and the Xiangshui River.

The reason why Libo is called the emerald on the earth's belt is definitely related to Wolongtan

The water in Wolongtan really has a unique charm. It is so blue that makes people want to blend into it. You will marvel at the greatness and tranquility of nature. In short, you will fall in love with it the moment you see it!

It is worth a visit. We got off the bus and walked for a while before arriving. It was almost five o'clock. There were very few people. The water was very calm and blue. No wonder some people say this is Jiuzhaigou. The only drawback is that there are too many fallen leaves on the lake. It looks a bit dirty, but it is not dirty. It just looks dirty. If you walk forward from such calm water, you will see the famous small waterfall. One is moving and the other is quiet. They are not far apart. It is very nice.

It takes a long time to get to Wolongtan. I wanted to take pictures of the blues of the sunset here. Unfortunately, the scenic area was crowded just before 6 o'clock. This is indeed a good place to take pictures, but it needs to be early or late to allow photographers to enter. If you watch it during the day, it is enough to see people.

Wolongtan is the exit of the karst underground river, Wolong River. This place is very suitable for taking reflection photos.

Sure enough, ripples soon appeared on the calm surface of the lake.

This is one of the most representative attractions of Xiaoqikong. It is indeed very beautiful.

Wolong Lake is not big, but it is crowded with people. Only by looking at the canal water flowing outside the lake can you feel the Wolong River swaying at the bottom of the lake.

The first stop after entering Xiaoqikong is Wolongtan, where the water is emerald green and the waterfall is like a jade ring. It can be said to be quite popular on the Internet. The water in Libo is really super beautiful. The tour guide said that it is because the water contains a lot of minerals that it shows the emerald green color. It is really amazing (⊙o⊙)!

The pond is not large in area. When the water is sunny, it is illuminated by the sun and becomes emerald green. On cloudy days, it becomes light blue, bright blue, and dark blue. The pond water gushes out from the underground river and flows down the mountain. Because an arc-shaped dam is built along the narrow valley cliff, the water level rises to form a deep pond, so the surface of the pond is as calm as a mirror. The lonely peak in the distance and the pavilions nearby are clearly reflected in the lake, just like entering a fairyland on earth.

Wolongtan is the essence of the entire Xiaoqikong. The lake is very green and shaded by trees. In fact, it is more beautiful to be there in person than what is reflected in the camera.

The rain stopped after we came out of Yuanyang Lake, and we headed for another classic attraction, Wolong Tan. It was just a few steps away from the Wolong Tan shuttle bus. There weren't so many people when I went there, so I could stand at different angles, adjust the shutter, take more pictures, or just stand there and stare at it in a daze. During peak hours, you can forget about having such a desire. The water in the lower reaches of Wolong Tan is crystal clear. I think if it hadn't rained, Yuanyang Lake would have been just as beautiful!

Wolongtan is where most of the bee head photos are taken. The bamboo forest next to it is also very beautiful. You can also walk around Wolongtan. Although it looks a bit artificial, it is really shocking when you look at it up close.

Wolongtan is actually a small reservoir formed by an arched dam. The blue water of the lake is dazzling, like a silver chain.

Facts have proved that our decision to come to Guizhou was correct. The mountains are very green, especially emerald green; the water is very beautiful and very clear. We don't want to leave.

As you enter Wolongtan, you will see green everywhere, which is refreshing and like emerald green. It is the finest kind of "full green".

Wolongtan is a small pond with a dam-like wall. The water falls from the dam to form an arc-shaped waterfall. There is another waterfall on the rock wall next to it, which divides into several streams and flows into the pond.

After getting off the sightseeing bus, the water we saw along the way was all sapphire blue full of aristocratic atmosphere. It was amazing everywhere. I was surprised to find that water can have so many colors, bright or dark, quiet or warm. Especially when we arrived at the Wolongtan Waterfall, we couldn't help but exclaim "Wow", isn't this a jade curtain made of pearls?

 

It is a popular tourist attraction and a must-visit. The real Wolongtan is also very beautiful and definitely worth a visit.

The water is indeed the legendary blue. Although the outlet of the lake is an artificial rolling dam, it is perfectly integrated with nature without any sense of disobedience. Just like Hanbi Lake, it would lack a sense of remoteness without the Seven-hole Bridge. The water of Wolong Lake rushes down from the dam, forming a crescent waterfall, a perfect fusion of movement and stillness, blue and white. Countless tourists have taken photos here.

The water of Wolongtan is dark green, calm and deep, and the sunlight shines down, piercing the eyes. The bamboo clumps on the shore are a good place to take pictures. In the viewfinder, you can see the mountain, the water, and the pavilion, with a few bamboo leaves dotted in between.

The scenery of "Wolongtan" is very beautiful and quiet, and it can be called "the fairyland in the sky". The blue water of the lake lies very quietly in the embrace of the lush green forest, without a ripple. The shadows of the mountains and trees seem to be printed in the water, motionless, and all things are in harmony. There is neither gorgeousness nor algae, which makes people reluctant to touch it. Under the lush primeval forest in the distance, the smoke and water are vast, and the undulating white water mist seems to be ethereal. Being in this scene, freeze at this moment. The human soul is suddenly emptied, all the troubles are thrown away into the clouds, and you are in a daze quietly.

Every scene, every mountain, every body of water has its own unique beauty. There is no doubt that Wolongtan is the Xiaoqikong, a masterpiece that adds the finishing touch.

As Liu Yuxi's poem describes, "A mountain is not famous for its height, but for the immortals living there; a river is not famous for its depth, but for the dragons living there. The moss on the steps is green, and the grass is green in the air."

The moment I saw Wolongtan, Zhu Ziqing's "Green" came to my mind. The water, spreading flat and thick, seemed to blend into the blue sky, bright, vivid and intoxicating green, moving like the Milky Way falling from the sky, and as quiet as the clear sky containing jasper.

The characteristic of Wolongtan is its combination of stillness and movement. The surface of the pond inside the dam is as calm as a mirror, while the waterfall cascading down forms a long pearl curtain, as continuous as a comb. The water hits the rocks under the dam, and it is like a piece of jade that instantly breaks into powder and falls into the pond water to dissolve and blend.

The water of Wolongtan is very beautiful, the surface of the lake is very clean and calm, the water of Wolongtan is blue-green, as transparent and charming as emerald. Surrounded by hills and trees, you can see the reflection on the water surface, which is a great spot for taking photos.

The water is very beautiful, blue-green and very clear. There is a small waterfall under the water, like a pearl, so beautiful! Libo~~The last emerald on the belt of the earth, probably refers to Wolongtan.

It was drizzling when I went there, and the water was green. I heard that the water is blue and more beautiful in the non-rainy season. But for someone who loves water like crazy, I was already very satisfied. I saw that there was rafting not far from Wolongtan, so I went to play without thinking. However, not long after I went up, the weather turned bad and it started to rain heavily. This feeling of floating in the water forest in the heavy rain was the first time for me. Because I was on the water, I really couldn't take pictures, but the scenery was really beautiful, the emerald green water, the vibrant forest, accompanied by heavy rain, the artistic conception we want, all get it!!!

Before I came to Xiaoqikong, I was always attracted by the pictures of this attraction. As long as I found a good angle and took a picture, it would be exactly the same as the promotional picture.

As soon as I got off the car, I was shocked by the scenery in front of me. The water surface was as calm as a mirror and the color was particularly beautiful, like the color of copper sulfate when doing experiments at school, blue and blue, and under the sunlight, it looked like green gems.

There are strange rocks and trees around the pond, as well as dense ancient trees. Outside the pond, there is a roaring sound of water, mist and rain, and high mountains all around. The pond is like an underground abyss.

From the shore, Wolongtan is in an arc shape. The calm water surface in front suddenly falls into the deep pool along the arc-shaped stone platform, with a roaring sound of water.

Entering from the east gate, the first beautiful scenic spot is Wolongtan, which has very beautiful scenery.

It was the rainy season and it rained for two days including when we were visiting the scenic area. The water in Wolongtan was a bit turbid, and it didn't have the clear green color as advertised. The waterfall had a large amount of water, which stirred up big waves. It was watchable, but not amazing.

At the outlet of Wolong River, there is a pool of clear water which gives a feeling of Jiuzhaigou. However, the artificial traces of this waterfall are too obvious, which is not my style.

You will never be disappointed here. Wolong Pond is as quiet as an emerald, while the water flows to Wolong Waterfall and cascades down. The stillness and movement form a sharp contrast.
