Main Attractions
Lovers Dam
The reason why Lovers Dam got its beautiful name is that when Dragon Boat Festival coming, the Pumis from all around would get together dancing and singing on the dam to celebrate their Valentines’ Day.
Echoing Wall
Echoing Wall is located at the headstream of Luoguo Qing North Channel, with an altitude of 3,000 meters. A group of huge and thick sandstone forms a cliff over one hundred meters high. The wall is smooth and flattening. When shout towards the wall, the sound fly upwards and resounds for a long time. So it is called Echoing Wall.
Dayang Pasture
It is the junction of Lanping, Weixi and Lijiang. From south to north, Dayang river turns back to the green pastures, like a silver dragon living here.
Danxia and Stone Forest Lanscape
The Danxia and stone scene here is unique. Because the river bed is covered with red Danxia stone, the crystal bottom of the water is like thick coffee. As the rocks on the mountain top become thinner and without soil covered, it forms a spectacular red Danxia stone peak, some like Buddha, some like people or animals.
