Landscape Features

Zushan streams flow around and there are groups of waterfalls. Zushan is located in the rainy belt of Yanshan Mountain, with an average annual precipitation of about 1,000 mm. It is extremely rich in water resources. There are nine typical waterfalls after investigation. Except for White Snake Tubu in the west and Jiankeng in the south, the others are distributed in the north. Near Longtan, the White Snake Tubu has a height difference of 80 meters and is located between the Shield and Arrow Peaks in the Huaguo Mountain Scenic Area.

Every winter, an ice dam forms at Longkou, and the waterfall stops flowing. When the accumulated water deepens and the pressure increases, the waterfall water breaks through the ice dam and spurts out, like a white snake spitting cloth. The height of Beilongtan Waterfall is 60 meters, the cliff is covered with moss, and the dragon's mouth spits out jade and pearls. The scenery is very spectacular. Other waterfalls such as Sister Pool, Santiao Pool, Huanglong Pool, and Black Dragon Pool have different postures.
