Main attractions

(1) Yulong Sand Lake: the water surface of Yulong Sand Lake is the largest in Wengniute. The name of Yulong Shahu comes from a beautiful local folklore. It is said that four or five thousand years ago, there was no lake in the area of garidun Gacha, where wind and sand were rampant, drought demons were rampant, rivers were dried up, the earth was cracked and no grass was growing. One day, the two daughters of the Jade Emperor passed by here. They were so worried about the loss of their lives that they became two beautiful girls. They led the people to fight against the demons of drought and sandstorm. As a result, the mountains became green, the water became green, and the deserted place became a land of fish and rice. According to local old people, Qigan lake and bulidun Yulong Lake were formed by their sisters. People call it "Longnu Lake". When the mid autumn moon is full in August, some people still see their graceful figures by the lake and hear their sweet and mellow songs.

(2) "China's first dragon" sculpture: in 1971, a jade dragon of Hongshan culture was unearthed in sanxingtala, Sumu, gewendu, North Korea. Its body is dark green, 26 cm long, curly and C-shaped. It is of great value to the study of the origin of the dragon and the primitive civilization of the Liaohe River Basin, known as "the first dragon in China". Wengniute Banner is also known as the "hometown of jade dragon" and one of the birthplaces of ancient northern civilization in China. In order to carry forward the jade dragon culture, in 1999, the government of Sumu, Gwen Du, built the sculpture of "the first dragon in China" with a height of 12 meters, of which the jade dragon sculpture is 2 meters high. The dragon's head is high and flying. It has become the first cultural landscape in the resort.

(3) Memorial forest of Hong Kong's return to China: the landscape of memorial forest of Hong Kong's return to China consists of green gifts from Changchun society of Hong Kong, tree planting monument in desert of China and memorial forest of Hong Kong's return to China. In 1998, Changchun society of Hong Kong organized a green gift to plant trees in the desert of the motherland. After three years, 107.4 hectares of desert trees were planted in Yulong Shahu tourist resort, equivalent to one thousandth of the total area of Hong Kong. 299700 trees were planted. 1647 Hong Kong and local volunteers participated in the tree planting activities. In July 2000, the people's Government of Wengniute Banner built a monument to commemorate the desert tree planting event.

(4) Lighting ancient cave: the entrance of this cave is triangular and people can enter it. Two or three meters inside the cave, there is a lamp like a bean. Its light color is changeable. It is blue in the morning, red in the afternoon, white in the evening, like a frost front. It is said that the Taoist of burning lamp once meditated in this cave, so it got its name.

(5) Jingde pagoda site: it is said that Yuchi Jingde, one of the door gods of the Tang Dynasty, once walked his horse in front of Mount Wula in gewendu. One evening, when Yuchi Jingde rode up the hillside to have a close look, it turned out that there was a demon at the beginning of the wind. Yuchi Jingde brought a huge stone to block up the entrance of the cave. On the top of the mountain, he built a demon tower with stone and cast pig iron. After the completion of Zhenyao tower, the weather in Bryton was good, the water and grass were abundant, and the six animals were prosperous. People here named the tower Jingde tower in memory of Yuchi Jingde's merits. Because Wudan was called Fengzhou in Liao Dynasty, it is also called the first tower of Fengzhou. The pagoda is on the top of chaogewenduwula mountain. Now the Jingde pagoda has been destroyed and its base still exists.
