✅Longfengchi
Beside the pool is a pair of dragons and phoenixes. The clear water bears witness to ancient love legends and can be visited by boat.

Standing on the big stone drum and looking into the distance, you can have a panoramic view of the beautiful scenery of "Thunder Mountain with Snow" written by Yuan Hongdao.

It's full of fun. Can you enter the wonderland if you pass through this door?

✅Guxuntang
The three main halls of Confucius, Zhou Gong and Emperor Shun
The Nine Dragon Pillars surround Tianchi and there are rafting, cruises, etc.
