Tianmu Xi, also known as Fen Shui Jiang, is described in ‘Shui Jing Zhu’ as follows: ‘Mountains stand on both sides of the water, with peaks towering above each other, their necks turned against the rocks, often confronting each other, for more than ten miles, with accumulated stones piled up, embracing each other upwards, the stream below is filled with white sand and fine stones, resembling frost and snow, the water and trees reflect each other, and the springs and rocks compete for brilliance.


..’ Tianmu Xi is well-known for its saying ‘There are eighteen rapids in the stream, each higher than the last.’ The mountains and waters on both banks are connected, with green hills and mountains, making it a beautiful section of Tianmu Xi. Tourists on rafts gently drift downstream, sometimes passing through ravines and hills, with the mountains turning and the water flowing; sometimes plunging down, breaking waves and chasing water.


Looking around, one can see the colorful peaks and embroidered ridges forming a picture, the blue sky and white clouds reflecting in the water, and on the water surface, groups of wild ducks play together, dancing gracefully; under the raft, the waves wash the stones, the swaying aquatic plants, and the various shapes of pebbles are clearly visible, with fish schools patterned like zebras swimming in succession, adding more wild interest for tourists.


Along the way, a series of activities such as ‘Eruhu Performance’, ‘Osprey Show’, ‘Beach Barbecue’, ‘Water Treasure Hunt’, ‘Passionate Shallow Water Bay’, and ‘Pearl Beach Water Play’ are overwhelming, with water guns, ladles, oars, and basins. When we use all these tools with all our might, we have completely reached a state of oblivion. Like cormorants, we play with the water of Tianmu Xi effortlessly.
