According to the official announcement, the main attractions of Zhutan Mountain Scenic Area are Xiandi, Tengweng Pavilion, Jiulong Wall, and Chaoran Pavilion, mostly on the north side of the entrance of the scenic spot. As soon as you enter the scenic spot, stroll along the Xiandi, all tourists' eyes are on the south side, and all long guns and short guns are facing the south: wow! A Qingxi, a long bridge, a pillar of Dufeng, and a mist are the famous photos of the world famous in Xiandu Scenic Area. In Zhutan Mountain, you must take a shot and walk. Take a shot on the edge of Xiandi. The bank of Haoxi, the north-south direction, and the bouldered Xiandi are the best places to shoot the landmark of Xiandu-Dinghu Peak. The mound in the stream 100 meters north of the Banyan Bridge, and the Wangfeng Pavilion 100 meters north, are the best seats for the guests. In the lens, the Dinghu Peak on the shore stands up in the sky, the horizontal Banyan Bridge is beautiful and quiet, the clear Jinxi mist is confused, and the Dinghu Peak in the water is full of immortality. If you meet the old rural woman and the cattle dog walking bridge show, it is a blockbuster. Take a walk on the Banyan Bridge. Built in 1828 and rebuilt in 1997, the Banyan Bridge is 75 holes, 115 meters long, and 0.8 meters high. It is a provincial cultural relics protection unit. It is simple and elegant, like a long silver necklace around the neck ridge of Haoxi. The bridge is only0.6 meters wide and can only accommodate one person. Crossing the bridge is a task that needs to be done with concerted efforts and care. It is so pleasant to stand on the bridge, open your arms, and embrace the wonderland.
