Introduction
There are seven waterfalls and pools in Longwan, arranged in an orderly manner, like a team of armored cavalry shaking their flags and screaming down the mountain. The first waterfall only has flowers, and the pool looks like a half-open phoenix eye. The second waterfall looks like a dragon twisting out of a rock cave, curling down and raising a cloud of mist, like a ladle. The third waterfall is thick on the left and thin on the right, and the two waterfalls falling at the same time look like a big jar. The fourth waterfall is like a soaring dragon, roaring down, crystal clear, like a sapphire. The fifth waterfall flows down leisurely, like a silver pipa. The sixth waterfall flows down along a stone trough, graceful and colorful, like a carp. The seventh waterfall is about 50 meters high, falling down like a broken bamboo, and the sound shakes the valley.
Below the pool is a large spillway known as the Longtan spillway, which is approximately semi-circular in shape. The smooth and shiny stone walls beside the pool provide a cool and refreshing experience when sitting there and feeling the waterfalls' impact. The three walls of the pool tower high like a natural tent and are known as the "Tent Rock". In the middle of the Tent Rock, a never-ending flying fountain pours out from the rock wall and is known as the Dragon Palace. It is located in an unfathomable cave. To the right of the rock is a steep unicorn peak. There is also a glass viewing platform at the mountaintop which offers a spectacular view of the scenery.
