Original name

At the south end of Yingjiang County, Dehong Dai and Jingpo Autonomous Prefecture, there is a "Tiger Leaping stone" known as one of the four waterfalls in Yunnan. The writer AI Wu wrote in a journey to the South: "this small mountain valley is located in the Kachin mountain at the junction of Yunnan and Myanmar. It is surrounded by dense green trees, but there are narrow gaps in the north and south, just like two gates in the valley. From there, the bright sky is exposed, and the Daying river flows from Yunnan to Myanmar's Irrawaddy River Bumping into the jagged rocks of the gorge, he roared all day and all night This description may be the earliest description of Tiger Leaping stone!

Introduction to scenic spots

Take a bus from Yingjiang County to the southeast, surpass the grand highway bridge of Dayingjiang, and then cross the Yingjiang sugar factory in Longzhang, and start climbing,

People's vision has been blocked by the undulating mountains. They can't see the Dayingjiang river that accompanies the highway. What they see is a green world. The mountains in the distance are dark. On the highway, there are lush green and neat rubber forests. When they arrived at mengwo, they had to abandon their cars and walk. Soon, they began to enter the gorge. On both sides of the gorge were rolling mountains. People moved along the eastern foot of the mountain, and gusts of hot wind came. Gradually came a sound, such as the pines, such as faint thunder, the sound of Tiger Leaping stone in the water has been heard several miles away. Further on, the roar of the river became louder and louder. The sound of the water urged people's steps, and finally came to Tiger Leaping stone. Looking up, the distance between the two mountains is less than 20 meters. The two huge stones standing in the river almost cut off the Daying river. The huge stones are like two gates. The stone gate is half closed, and there is a gap in the middle, which is only 7.3 meters wide. What's more interesting is that in the middle of the river, not too far away from here, there is another huge stone lying in the middle of the river. The three huge stones in the river are just like a word "pin", bringing people into a mythical world. Looking up at the cliffs on both sides, no one will doubt that the tiger can really jump across the river! When the gentle River comes to the canyon, it suddenly turns into a vigorous dragon. It can't wait to rush out of the gate. The roaring river is like a group of frightened and angry runaway wild horses, which excites the power to shake the mountains and move the ground. All of a sudden, the waves soar up to more than ten meters! Spray water in the air flying, chasing, mercury, such as rain, slowly falling down from the air, forming a valley spectacle!

The wonder of Tiger Leaping stone is amazing, but the cave of falling water is the wonder of Qingzhong. It is more dangerous terrain, especially in the flood season, people can hardly get to its side, can only stand on the top of the river sighing. Only in the dry season can we jump from one rock to another along the riverbed. Or like climbing the ladder, hand and foot and pull the wild vine hanging from the tree, step by step up. When you come to the top of the mountain and look down at the bottom of the gorge, it seems that a cloud of white clouds is rolling and floating on the surface of the river, and the sinkhole is at your feet. Downhill came to its side, only to find that the river is not floating white clouds, but the rapid impact of the bottom of the riverbed reef, raised mushroom shaped water column. If you look from the side, the huge white waves are like the head of a rhinoceros bird. The water column is surrounded by the water column, and it soars into the air. The river water strikes the rocks, and mercury splashes like spring rain. The whole Canyon seems to be in thick fog. If the value of the sun at the top, a ray of sunlight shining on the sky dancing mercury, suddenly, the canyon over the rise of a dazzling rainbow. There is a huge stone on the surface of the river. People say that under the huge stone is the entrance of the cave. During the flood season, the whole huge stone is swallowed by the river. It's really strange that the cave is separated by a stone, but there are two different scenes: above the boulder, the river is turbulent and splashing; under the boulder, the water is like a mirror, and the color of the water becomes green. It is also worth noting that the boulders in this section of the canyon are covered with numerous honeycomb like caves, which are shaped like the chongmo of Jingpo nationality. Shallow about one meter, deep 2 to 3 meters, can accommodate 4 to 5 people upright. The inner wall of the cave is smooth, as if it had been polished by hand. There is a section of limestone cliff tens of meters long, washed by the river year after year, the veins of the cliff are clearly visible. The river is a natural painter. The majestic ink paintings are displayed in front of us. The mountains are surrounded by clouds, the red deer are chasing, the tall and straight pine and the graceful phoenix tail bamboo are swaying in the wind It's beautiful. Everything in the cave brings people into the labyrinth of nature and makes people deeply feel the great and infinite power of nature.
