Fenglin Canyon Scenic Area

Situated in Mountain Taihang, 20km to the north of the downtown area of Jiaozuo City, Fenglin Canyon Scenic Area occupies 50 square kilometers. It is the central tourist sight of the Yuntai Global Geological Park as well as the central zone of Mountain Southern Taihang National Park of Jiaozuo, which is being designed for future construction. Bordering Mountain Yuntai and Qinglong Canyon Scenic Area to the east, with the Qingtian River and Mountain Shennong Resort to its west, it is easily accessible by the Jiaojin Expressway.

Being a combination of natural views of both South and North Chinese styles, the place is a mountainous area for natural sightseeing. Numerous splendid mountains, grand waterfalls, ever-flowing springs, rivers, high cliffs, deep valleys, fancy rocks and peaks are distributed here. Looking down at the lakes from the top of Mountain Tianwang, you feel that the water looks as pure and clean as a big piece of jade. Walking near the lake, you can fully enjoy the beauty of the lakes and mountains on both sides. The water is so pure that you can drink it directly. Taking a boat on the river will bring you much more pleasure, when you seem to be in a picturesque world surrounded by green hills and lakes. It is so thrilling and wonderful to appreciate such beautiful views of the marvelous mountains and the fancy rocky hills on both sides of the riverbank. The lake winds as far as more than five kilometers like a dragon. Sometimes, you suddenly seems to be trapped in a place where there is no way out, but after a while there appears another open space ahead, where lines of mountains mirror beautifully into the lake with several clouds floating in the sky——another beautiful picture before you, refreshing you all at once and making you totally immersed.

Fenglin Canyon Scenic Area is most famous for its peculiar and grand mountains, which stretch in chains rising up to the sky. In addition, it is also unique for one of the wonders of China——a stone statue of Chairman Mao Zedong, which was discovered in 1993, when it was the 100th Anniversary of Chairman Mao's birth. It is more than 10 meters in height and looks very clear and lifelike.
