Emerald Valley

Peaks here are green and water is clear around the year. There are beautiful scenic attractions such as Old Dragon Pool (Laolong Tan), Green Dragon Pool (Qinglong Tan), Black Dragon Pool (Wulong Tan), White Dragon Pool (Bailong Tan) and Emerald Pond.
 
The Emerald Valley extends 6km at the foot of Mountain Xiandu, which lies at the northern end of Mountain Huangshan.
 
Up the terraced mountainside are strewn glittering green pools various in shapes and sizes.

With the constant change of light, the water changes its color into all shades of green, hence this valley is named Emerald Valley. The riot of color presents a kaleidoscopic scene.

What's more, rare waterfowls like white swans and mandarin ducks can be found in this valley. As mandarin ducks symbolize love in China, therefore, this place is also called Love Valley by the local people.
