What makes Mei River Scenic Zone a wonderful land is the karst landform with grotesque ground and underground scenery which is totally different from scenery of rock forest of Yunnan, Guilin in Guangxi and Zhangjiajie in Hunan. It’s also rare to see such enormous and miscellaneous karst caves here in the whole nation.

In Mei River Scenic Zone, there are some rare, amazing scenic spots you can’t miss. Ten-mile Gallery, rare and unique geological and geomorphologic landscape, is of great scientific value. Fairy House is characterized by rare thin limestone and siliceous rock. What’s most inviting is bound to be the ceaseless Lotus Fountain under the Buddha’s Rock, which just sounds like boiling water. The most spectacular spot is undisputedly the Stone Pillar which is as tall as 16 meters and can only be hugged around by 12 persons. The next nature’s gift must be the Natural Bridge with four layers. Then, it comes to the most mysterious and miraculous spot that is the Mount Censer. There is a Waving Stone. It can be shook by hands of one person but can’t be pushed down by dozens of people.
