Zhangshiyan Scenic Area

The springs share many common elements: They all flow down from the cliff outlets dozens to hundreds of meters high to form three layers of waterfalls: the Jade Waterfall, Cloud Cliff Pond, Zhangyan (a screen-like mountain peak), Double Waterfall and Water Curtain Waterfall, all of which create a marvelous natural phenomenon. There are also many kinds of plants and wild and rare birds and animals in Zhangshiyan Scenic Area, such as the black stork, turtledove, river deer, roe deer, ordinary deer, badger and grand black butterfly.

From the summer to early winter, a sea of clouds usually appears in the area and, at the right time, the "Light of Buddha" can be spotted. A soft rime in the early winter adorns the mountains and valleys where trees look like "jade trees" with "pear flowers on their branches".
