Tourism resources of spray fish spring

Yesanpo is the rarest cave and spring wonder in the landscape. Its springs are cool and sweet, and there are many famous springs: Yugu Spring, Yuquan Spring, Shendong Spring and Shentian Spring, which are famous for winning by water, among which Yugu Cave is the most famous. Every year before and after the Grain Rain Festival, a large number of small white fish with a body length of about two inches gush out from the springs.

This phenomenon has attracted many tourists and scholars to watch it, which also makes Yugudong Scenic Area one of the six scenic spots in Yesanpo, and therefore Yugudong Spring is listed as one of the eight strange springs in Hebei Province. The spring is listed as a world famous spring. A short trip can not only give you a refreshing sense of enjoyment, but also learn more about the growth process of the ancient planet and truly experience the wonders of nature. However, since the end of 1990s, the water level in Yugudong has dropped seriously, and the spectacle of fish spraying has since disappeared. However, since the end of the 20th century, Yesanpo has invested heavily in the protection of ecological resources, and the forest coverage rate and soil and water conservation rate of scenic spots have increased rapidly year by year, and the water level of Yugudong has also increased at an annual rate of 10cm. Finally, after a lapse of more than ten years, the reappearance of the "fish-spraying" landscape in Yugu Cave is not only a miraculous effect of Yesanpo ecological protection, but also a "good omen" after the deep development of Yugu Cave, which has aroused the strong desire of many scientific researchers to explore the mystery of "strange spring" again.

The longest time of "spraying fish" can be up to 3 hours, intermittently. All the fish species are silvery white "scaleless shovel jaw fish" with a body length of two to three inches. This kind of fish is only produced in Haihe River, Weihe River, Huaihe River and the upper reaches of the Yangtze River, and its stock is very small. It has been listed as a national first-class protected animal. Yesanpo has Juma River, which has been the main tributary of the upper reaches of Haihe River for many years. Such a large-scale "fish-spraying" landscape is rare in China, and its reasons need further investigation and study by experts.

Yugu Cave opens at the mountain pass and crosses the mountainside. The proven length is about 1 1,800 meters, with five floors in total. And it can be called "layered scenery, unique scenery." Coupled with the erosion of groundwater year after year, caves are formed in hard rock layers, and the constant temperature in the caves can be kept at about 14 degrees. The most striking things in the cave are all kinds of stalactites, stalagmites and stone pillars. Coupled with five-color lights, colorful and tortuous passages are like the underground Dragon Palace. The bottom of the cave is unique in geology, with stone flowers, cloud basins, goose tubes, geological relics and other landscapes, which are dangerous and secluded.
