Daquangou

　　   Daquangou is located at the northern foot of Nanshan Mountain in Chen Gui Town, covering an area of approximately 18 square kilometers, with its highest peak, Ma'erfu, reaching an elevation of 774.9 meters. Daquangou is world-famous for its beautiful springs. The area features strikingly rugged peaks and lush, layered mountains, making it a picturesque eco-friendly leisure destination.

　　   The valley of Daquangou stretches about 10 Chinese miles in length. All year round, streams meander through the valley, twisting and turning, sometimes gentle and sometimes steep, forming a variety of springs and waterfalls. They are like jade spewing from green hills or brocades woven by fairies. Scenic spots such as “Rolling Oil Pot,” “Loach Back,” “Moon Reflected in Dragon Pool,” and “Ox Offering Spring” are remarkably lifelike. Walking through the valley, one can enjoy the harmonious blend of the sounds of springs, birdsong, and rustling woods—the masterpieces of nature are truly breathtaking.

　　   Daquangou boasts countless scenic spots and attractions. These include the mirror-like Shilingwu Reservoir, the historic Lianhua Nunnery, as well as the mysterious Kechen Mountain, Turtle Mound, Fox Fairy Ridge, Eagle Rock Cave, Dagandong Cave, Xiaogandong Cave, and Longdong Cave. Among them, the cliffside “Wangyan Pavilion” on Kechen Mountain preserves well-preserved cliff inscriptions. Phrases such as “A stone relic remains carefree through the ages; a wandering spirit transcends all worldly thoughts,” “Lift your head to see a whole new world; open your eyes to take in all the lake and mountain views,” and “Why not turn around?” are bold and powerful, standing vividly in sight.

　　   Daquangou, with its remarkable mountains, beautiful waters, exquisite springs, and serene valleys, is hailed as the “Jiuzhaigou of Daye.”
