Core highlights of the scenic area
1️⃣ Tianquan Cave
A perfect photo spot with Tyndall light whenever the sun is out! It is recommended to visit at noon when the lighting is best.
2️⃣ Monkey Pool
A forest of stones fully showcasing the strange karst landforms. Taking photos from afar with a telephoto lens produces amazing shots!
3️⃣ Stone Sea Waves
The stones overlap like waves, stretching for miles. This stone forest wonder looks like an "alien planet" and is perfect for photos.
4️⃣ The Great Funnel (World-class Tiankeng)
A giant sinkhole 650 meters long and 208 meters deep, twice the size of the Arecibo sinkhole in the United States. Walk along the plank road to the bottom of the pit and look up to see the amazing "viewing the sky from the bottom of a well" scene.
5️⃣ In addition to natural landscapes, many new entertainment projects have been added in the scenic area, such as: Permian slide, go-karting, popular small train, grass skiing, stone sea zipline, rock climbing, archery, via ferrata, and high-altitude activities.
