Destination Introduction Jiudaowan Scenic Area is located in the grand canyon to the west of Beishicheng Village, Shicheng Township, Miyun County, Beijing. When exploring the scenic area, if you’re thirsty, the clear, cool, and sweet mountain springs such as Jianquan and Zhquan are perfect for a drink; if you’re hot, stretch your arms out and enjoy the splashing water under the waterfalls or in the pools; when tired, sit on the huge rocks by the pools and watch the clearly visible fish swimming—due to the area’s remoteness, the little fish are so tame you can even scoop them up with your hands. Especially noteworthy are the three wonders of Jiudaowan Natural Scenic Area. Near Sandao Wan (Third Bay), there is a Turtle-Frog Stone that looks like a leaping frog from one side and a waddling turtle from the other. Legend has it that long ago, there was an eel cave in Nianyu Pool within which lived an evil eel spirit that caused great suffering to the locals. The Cloud-Mist Ancestor from Dashan Mountain came down to persuade the spirit to reform, but the stubborn eel spirit boasted: “I’m very powerful—I can turn into a frog or even a turtle…” Before he could finish, the Cloud-Mist Ancestor pointed his finger and turned the eel spirit into the Frog Stone. Near Badao Wan (Eighth Bay), on the upright cliff wall, there is a huge, clear footprint measuring four to five meters in length—who left it remains a mystery that stirs the imagination. The most peculiar is the Qiliang Jie (Extraordinarily Cool Boundary) near Jiudaowan, locally called “One Step Cool.” In summer, along the mountain path in the woods, just one step across an invisible line brings a sudden, bone-chilling breeze, while just one step back is sweltering heat. Why does the “One Step Cool” phenomenon exist? Opinions vary—perhaps it’s time for the experts to weigh in?
