Geography

In the West baiyanggou Valley, there are snow peaks, steep mountains, tall spruce and green grass. Under the shade of a white yurt, exquisite villas, elegant sanatorium, hotel and snack bar and other buildings, make this deep canyon more lively. At the end of xibaiyanggou, the scenery is more beautiful. In the shelter of green trees and cliff, a waterfall with a height of more than 40 meters and a width of about two meters is like Bailian hanging in the air, falling down like a silver dragon flying and roaring like a drum. At the falling place of the waterfall, the spray is splashed and the water drops are light. They are scattered on the mossy rocks and the dark green woods on both sides, just like drizzle, cool and pleasant.
