Moonlight Scenic Area

　　    Located at the northern end of Yuexiao Yi, Miao, and Hui Ethnic Township in Zhongshan District, it faces the already developed and utilized A’er River Scenic Area of Shuicheng County across the river. The area encompasses Xiaotun, Dushan Village, Daba Village, and Shuangdong Village, covering an area of approximately 25 square kilometers, and is home to ethnic groups including Han, Yi, Miao, and Hui. The highest elevation is the main peak at Shuijingbian at 2,090 meters, while the lowest (at the river boundary) is 1,445 meters. It is a typical region of diverse vertical climates and classic karst landforms, with relatively well-preserved natural ecology — forests cover about 42% of the area. The region is dominated by evergreen trees and grasslands, lush and green throughout the year, and in spring, it bursts into a riot of wildflowers. The area features well-developed karst landscapes of peak clusters and valleys, with high mountains, deep valleys, uniquely shaped peaks and rocks scattered everywhere, caves found throughout, a high vegetation coverage rate, and high-quality mountain spring water — making it a rare paradise. The Moonlight Scenic Area boasts unique karst cave landscapes and many legendary tales.
