Four overlapping Waterfals

1 min read

Two streams join at about 50 meters of upper reaches of Fuxi Stream, one originates from Mt. Zhonghua, and the other comes from the Reed Marsh(Luhuadang). They are merged into a greater current in the gully, and form the first flying waterfall rushing towards Feihong Bridge (Flying Rainbow Bridge).

Passing through the bridge, the water suddenly drops offnearly 10 meters into Jianchi that forms the second waterfall. The water takes a brief rest in the pond and falls down directly into Jiantan(Sword Pool) at an elevation of 20 to 30 feet high, the great momentum of water striking on rocks below sends out roars. That forms the grandest sight of the third waterfall. The current dashing down from Jiantan into the brook forms the fourth sluggish and short waterfall. Then, the stream meanders its way forward and disappears in dense groves. By the right of Jianchi,a narrow pathway winds up to Flying Rainbow Bridge and winds down to Sword Pond. Tourists can enjoy the waterfalls at different positions on the way.

They can observe the splashes and feel a gust of cold air from time to timeby the side of Sword Pond. They can also get in the pavilion and lean on therailing to look down at the mystic Sword Pool in thick mist. If tourists get out of the pavilion and go nearer to it, the waterfall seems to be easily touched.
