Enshi is a place where ethnic minorities gather, and naturally, it is rich in folk history sites. Tusi City is the first scenic spot to be introduced. It originated from the Tusi system and is a testament to the long history of the Tujia people. Enshi is the cradle of Ba culture. The Ba people worship the White Tiger, which symbolizes bravery and embodies the qualities of perseverance, strength, and generosity of the entire tribe. After Lin Jun's death, he transformed into the White Tiger, which is the origin of the White Tiger. The descendants of Lin Jun are the Tujia people, and thus, the Lin Jun Temple was established in Tusi City as a symbol of their faith in the White Tiger.

Tenglong Cave is part of the National Geopark, integrating mountains, water, caves, and forests, and is located in Lichuan City. It was once rated as 'the most beautiful place in China' by China National Geographic magazine. It is the largest karst cave in China, incredibly vast inside, and standing inside, one does not feel the claustrophobic sensation typical of caves; even helicopters can enter. Tenglong Cave not only features laser shows but also large-scale situational song and dance performances. Watching a live light effect performance in the dim cave is a rare experience.
