It is 450 meters wide from east to west and 800 meters long from north to south. It has been formed 300000 years ago. About 37 kilometers away from the gate of the forest park, it is slightly remote, but it is definitely worth driving to visit.

brief introduction

There are two Tianchi in Aershan, one is called Aershan Tianchi, which is close to the tourist center, so most tourists visit here. One is called tuofengling Tianchi, which is 40 kilometers away from the tourist center. The foot of the mountain is about 400 meters away from guantianchi on the top of the mountain. Generally, tourists go to less. But the scenery is very beautiful.

Tuofengling Tianchi Lake is a high-level lake formed by accumulated water in the crater after the volcanic eruption. The water surface here is 1284 meters above sea level. The lake looks like the shape of a man's left foot. It is about 450 meters wide from east to west and 800 meters long from north to south, covering an area of 26 hectares. This lake also belongs to Maar Lake, which was formed about 300000 years ago. Here we can see pumice stones. You can choose one. Pumice stones that don't sink in the water are pumice stones. There is also a touching legend about the pumice in Hump ridge. It is said that a long time ago, there lived a family at the foot of Tianchi. Old Eji and his daughter sang rile depended on each other. In a flash, when the girl reached the age of marriage, old Eji was very anxious. Where was the crowd? One day, Lao Erji brought a camel. After feeding him, he told him what was on his mind. Sure enough, the camel was very smart. He opened his eyes and snorted. When the girl knew this, she tied her beloved bronze mirror to the hump and told the camel to remember that the first person who could shine on my bronze mirror was my sweetheart. The camel bell became weaker and weaker from near to far and disappeared in the mountains.

present situation

The camel moved devoutly through the mountains and countless rivers. After walking for many days, he was really exhausted and fell down. The camel bell did not ring, and gradually became a mountain peak. The bronze mirror sliding down from the hump rolled down to the hillside and turned into a pool of water.

A few years later, more and more people come and go by the pool. The most promising person in the crowd is Baolige, a hunter who is good at riding and shooting. Every time the young man goes hunting, he comes back with a full load. One day, when he put the otter he had just shot into a hunting bag by the pool, the mountain bandit fanbala appeared in front of him. He injured Baolige and threw him into the pool. He found that he was not dead. He wanted to find a stone to smash it, but he couldn't find one. If he couldn't smash it, he would drown. The mountain bandit picked up his prey and walked away with ease. The water flowed down the mountain along the edge of the pool. I don't know how long after that, the grass turned yellow, the leaves fell, the snow fell, the trees turned green and the flowers turned red. I don't know how many years later, when Baolige woke up, Lin Haitao told him to go to the first family in Tianchi. When Baolige stepped into the gate, it was a white haired old Eji who welcomed him. She was the sangrile of that year Lige has been floating in the pool for 50 years. This marriage is still popular among the people of Tianchi.

No wonder now some good men and women come to the bottom of the hump to make a wish. When the man throws a stone and doesn't float, the woman pouts her mouth. When the woman throws a stone and plunges to the bottom, the man also stares. When the two stones float, the sound of cheering is just like the sweet camel bells on the mountain.
