It borders the Ancient Longzhong to the east, connects to Wudang Mountain to the west, leans against Cheng'en Temple to the north, and stands near Shuijing Village to the south. The park covers an area of 26,200 mu, with a forest coverage rate of 92%, and has five major functional zones and over 50 scenic spots, including "Forest Bath," Lingguan Temple, Peach Blossom Valley, Lion Mountain, and Five Dragons Temple. The park is home to numerous historical relics and stone inscriptions, dense natural springs, uniquely shaped rocks and peaks, and lush trees, making it a key nature reserve in northwestern Hubei and an important ecological tourism destination in the Jing Mountains.

◆ Travel Tips

Ailian Pavilion: Ailian Pavilion is a scenic spot that blends cultural and natural landscapes, consisting of the nearby "Ailian Pavilion" and the opposite "Giant Pine Ridge." The Ailian Pond beneath the pavilion is planted with various lotus flowers and stocked with ornamental fish, while the area outside the pond is surrounded by a well-established papaya grove and continuous rows of osmanthus bushes.

Jingyi Residence: Jingyi Residence is nestled against the mountain and beside the water, embraced by lush trees on all sides. With a unique architectural style and premium materials, it consists of five residential units. At first glance, they appear similar, but upon closer inspection, each has its own distinctive features. The only commonality is that each unit includes one living room, one bedroom, and one bathroom—offering an elegant, refined, comfortable, and practical living space.
