Introduction

Walking a few hundred meters along the stone steps on the southwest side of Dàtiānchí, you can see the towering cliff of Longshou Cliff, which hangs over the cliff. Standing on the left side of the cliff pavilion, you can enjoy the best view. The cliff of Longshou Cliff stands tall, and a stone looks like a soaring dragon. Several twisting pines grow in the cracks under the cliff, resembling dragon whiskers. When the breeze blows, the dragon whiskers dance with the wind. Longshou Cliff is an excellent place to watch clouds and fog. When the thick fog comes, standing on the rock, it feels like flying in space like a cloud-riding hero; it also feels like riding a dragon and swimming in the waves. Soon, the thick fog will dissipate, and the blue sky and green mountains will appear in front of you, and the distant canyon, river, field, and farmhouse can be clearly seen. Standing on the Longshou Cliff and admiring the beauty of the Shijian Canyon, you can see a rainbow twisted in the air like a suspension bridge. You can also see Lion Rock, Fangyin Rock, Wenshu Rock, Qingliang Rock, and Wanzhang Ladder.
