Bingyugou Scenic Area is located in the mountainous area in the northern part of Zhuanghe City, 240 kilometers away from Dalian City. The whole area is about 110 square kilometers, surrounded by the Yingna and Xiaoyu rivers shielded by the three mountains of Longhua, Danma and Jinchong. The trees here are towering and the mountains and rivers are beautiful, just like the scenery in the south of the Yangtze River. It is known as "Little Guilin in southern Liaoning". However, the scenery here is different from Guilin's landscape and Huangshan's sea of ??clouds. It has its own unique style and charm.
Bingyu Tourist Scenic Area is known as "Guilin in southern Liaoning" and is famous at home and abroad. Liaoning Xianrendong National Forest Park, known as the "Kingdom of Natural Animals and Plants", is another tourist attraction in Zhuanghe City, adjacent to Bingyu. There are thousands of species of rare birds and beasts, as well as exotic flowers and plants. The more than 600 hectares of red pine forest here is unparalleled in Asia and even the world.
Bingyu Valley was discovered in the early 1980s. It was almost isolated from the rest of the world. In the late 1980s, the government carried out tourism development in this area covering an area of ??170 square kilometers, forming the Bingyu tourist resort. The charm of Bingyu Valley remains unchanged all year round. In summer, Bingyu Valley is particularly cool, making it an ideal place to escape the heat. Autumn is the most beautiful season in Bingyu. The mountains with dancing red leaves are colorful. The most spectacular season in Bingyu is winter, when the stone forest is as white as jade, the peaks are as dazzling as crystal, the mountain springs condense into ice curtains, and the eyes are filled with icebergs and snow ridges. All wrapped in silver.
It is said that in the early years of the Ming Dynasty, the mountains here were no different from what they are now, but the trees on the mountains were very different. At first, the mountains were covered with variegated woods and there were no pine forests. What's strange is that there is a big red pine tree about four arms thick growing alone on the top of Tiantai Peak, with tall branches and lush needles. This ancient pine has a lot of seeds, but not even a small pine seedling can be found in the mountains around it. The story of Longhua Mountain comes from this strange ancient pine.
The water in Bingyu Valley mainly refers to the two rivers flowing through the scenic area: Yingna River and Xiaoyu River, a tributary of Yingna River. The Yingna River is like a white ribbon, spiraling along the ice valley. The Xiaoyu River is like a thread, winding around the solitary peaks and forests. Due to hundreds of millions of years of erosion, the river channels in Bingyu are as clean as new and have formed white and soft beaches everywhere. Pebbles of various shapes are scattered throughout the valley. The bottom of the river in Bingyu is mostly made of rock formations. The clear water is as clear as a mirror, and the fish and rocks are clearly visible to the eye.
