A national 5A-level scenic area, ecologically restored from a cluster of quarry pits — a model project for treating abandoned mines. Yuwang Palace and Xia Garden spread along the valley, and the large-scale live-action show 'Shenyou Chuanqi' (A Legendary Journey) is staged at night; the gorge landscape converted from quarry pits and the exhibition halls serve as a living classroom for ecological education. Recreation and culture coexist, well suited to family itineraries.
