Wulong Lake is the soul of Dashi Lake Scenic Area. It is famous for its natural beauty, among which the five lakes and four waterfalls are the most spectacular. In the steep mountain stream, it is arranged step by step. The lake is blue and clear, and the sound of waterfalls is shocking. Legend has it that Wulong Lake is a treasure house of dragons, such as The Origin of Dashi Lake, The Abyssable Erhu Lake, The Dragon King Showing Sages, etc., which are well-known and breathtaking. Praying at Longwang Temple and Wulong Lake is very effective and can be said to have everything.

Lingbingxia Valley is named for its steep valley, blocking sunlight and slow melting of ice and snow. Every spring season, Lingbingxia Valley is like an artificial ice and snow landscape, allowing visitors to enjoy the beautiful scenery of mountain flowers and visit the world of ice and snow in the warm sunshine. Here, you can take a walk in spring to see the snow, see the waterfalls of streams, see the crisscross of boulders, see the skyscrapers of peaks and enjoy the red leaves and flowers. It is not only a good place to enjoy flowers in spring and leaves in autumn, but also an excellent place to watch the world of ice and snow in spring.

Mulan is a rare flower protected by the state and the city flower of Benxi. This exotic flower takes root and blooms in Dashi Lake Scenic Area, which is called "Wonder among Wonders". From June to July every year, the Mulan Goddess Club opens for the second time, emitting a refreshing fragrance under the red and yellow petals. The most spectacular thing is to form a north-south viewing belt under the upper ridge of Mulan Valley, which is more than 2,000 meters long and 400 meters wide, reaching as much as 3,000 mu. They embrace each other to form a forest and naturally form a garden, which is called "the first in China" and "the first in the world" in terms of scale and quantity.
