Huai River is one of the four rivers in ancient China. In 221 BC, Emperor Qinshihuang ordered to build Huai Temple. In the following dynasties, emperors repeatedly raised the position of the god of the Huai River and the temple for sacrifices had been accordingly built with increasing magnificence. Emperors of following dynasties had paid many visits or dispatched envoys to hold the sacrificing ceremony. As a result, many steles were erected here with inscriptions written by emperors such as Emperor Kangxi, Emperor Yongzheng and so on. At the end of the Huai River there stands Emperor Yu Temple. In 1695, the magistrate of Tongbai County ordered to erect a stele in Huaijing Pavilion. Nowadays it has become a tourist destination to explore the source of Huai River and its ancient culture.

Only 3km from the county seat, Shuilian (water curtain) Cave Scenic Spot is beset in mountains. The Tongtian River runs down the cliff over 60m high and forms a water curtain. There is a cave on the cliff which is spacious enough to hold hundreds of people. Hidden by the water curtain, it hence got the name Shuilian (literally water curtain) Cave. Owing to its fine water quality, the place is reputed as the Blessing Land and Haven by Taoism. Shui Lian Gua Xu, one of the eight sights in Tongbai, is a fine summer resort for rest and relaxation. Shuilian Temple, next to the cave, could be dated back to 1,000 years. In the temple there is a jade Buddha statue donated by the believers in Myanmar, which stands 1.5m high and weighs 1.8 ton. It is a national treasure for its fine craftsmanship.
