Main attractions

Guyu lake has a surface area of 5 square kilometers, a reserve of 56 million cubic meters and a circumference of 32 kilometers. The lake is wide and the water quality is clear. There are six islands in the lake. The mountains around the lake are steep and full of strange rocks. The mountains are covered with trees. The scenery is beautiful. The water of the golden goose River comes from the East. It is divided into two parts in front of Huilong mountain. It is surrounded by the mountains. It flies down from the 40 meter high cliff and forms two rows of wide waterfalls. The flood season is particularly spectacular. The memorial archways in the north and South passes of the urban area were built in the Daoguang period of the Qing Dynasty. Most of them are four pillars, three doors and five story stone buildings, with a height of 11 meters and a width of about 9 meters. They are mainly Gongde memorial archways and chastity memorial archways. Now there are six in the North pass and seven in the South Pass, which have high architectural and stone carving art value.

Yundingzhai, 20 kilometers away from the city, is located on Yundingshan, 530 meters above sea level. It was first built in the fourth year of Hongwu in the Ming Dynasty and completed in the eleventh year of Xianfeng in the Qing Dynasty. The wall is 1640 meters long, 75 meters high, 3-4 meters wide and has six gates. It is a well preserved ancient castle. Yundingchang, 1 li away from the stockade, was set up to meet the needs of the stockade owners for shopping and dining after playing cards and having fun at night. People entered the stockade in the middle of the night to trade and left at dawn. This custom has not changed.

A few years ago, a road around the lake was built, which makes it more convenient for tourists to enjoy the scenery. Many farmhouses are set up around the lake, which is a good place for tourists to have leisure on weekends and holidays.
