The water in the pond is clear and bright, and the trees reflected in it are also so green. Therefore, people call it Dingyao, which means "green pond".

Two karst caves on the east side of the mountain are side by side at the same height, making the whole mountain like a cat crawling and opening a pair of big eyes. Its shape is extremely lifelike. Maomaoshan got its name because of this, and the karst cave on it was also called maomaodong by the villagers.

The opening of Maomao cave faces northeast, with a height of 3 meters and a width of more than 4 meters. There is a terrace in front of the cave, with shuitianbazi on both sides, and the beautiful Mulong village behind.
