Eighteen famous pools, such as Chunhua Pool, Qiuyue Pool, Pingsha Pool, Luoyan Pool, Qu Pool, Die Pool, Chen Pool, and Xuan Pool, are scattered in the deep grand canyon, each with its own unique charm and making people overwhelmed. The vegetation coverage rate of the Heilongtan Scenic Area is over 80%, of which the forest coverage rate is 45%. It has landscape characteristics such as novelty, uniqueness, and danger. It is a landscape with canyons and secluded pools as the natural base and is also full of human cultural legends. In the eight-mile-long deep valley, there are so many waterfalls that are unparalleled in the suburbs of Beijing. From beginning to end, everything is novel and there is no sense of repetition. As soon as you enter the first pool, visitors are led into a fairyland, making people feel relaxed and happy and eager to go. The Tongtian Waterfall is vertically steep, with walls as sharp as knives. The waterfall more than fifty meters high seems to fall from the sky. Mist rises, fills the valley, and cold air blows on the face. Luoyan Pool is formed by the impact of Tongtian Waterfall. The pool is wide and deep, with a water surface area of more than 100 square meters and a depth of three to four meters at the deepest point. In addition, the terrain is relatively open, surrounded by mountains. The mountains are green and the waters are beautiful. Pebbles are strewn across the river beach, and mountain flowers and wild grasses are lush. At the beginning of spring or near winter, wild geese come here to rest and drink water and eat. Hence, it is called ‘Luoyan Pool’. The canyon is deep and all natural scenery has its own unique charm. The uncanny workmanship of nature has carved this canyon into a landscape with wonders within scenery and scenery within wonders, mysterious and unfathomable. The waterfall and pools are both majestic and magnificent, yet also turbulent and thrilling. The waterfall roars, the pool water swirls rapidly, the peaks and cliffs are steep, and the valley is deep and the road is narrow. When climbing ladders and walking on bridges, you can view the scenery from danger. Tourists pursue the scenery in danger and are willing to ‘take risks’. If you don’t face danger, you cannot appreciate the charm of the scenery in danger. The scenery in danger adds strength to tourists, giving people a feeling that those who don’t reach the real pool are not real heroes. Opening hours: Open all year round from 09:00 to 17:00.
