Hengdian Jiulong Grand Canyon

　　    Jiulong Grand Canyon is situated at the foot of Jiulong Peak on the southern side of Bamianshan Mountain in Hengdian, spanning over 3,000 acres of mountainous terrain. The scenic area is constructed in harmony with the mountain’s contours, featuring landscapes formed by the natural topography. Both the dragon heads and bodies are made from reinforced concrete, and each dragon is named after one of the “Five Elements” from ancient Chinese philosophy—Metal, Wood, Water, Fire, and Earth—as well as the cardinal directions—East, South, West, and North.

　　    The nine giant dragons form the entirety of the grand canyon. Each dragon head stands between 22 and 35 meters high and stretches from 150 to 400 meters in length, with distinct expressions as they appear to swim through the nine great canyons. The nine dragons can each serve as standalone attractions, yet are also interconnected via pedestrian pathways, forming a continuous dragon trail. Inside the dragon bodies, there are displays on historical culture, geography, ocean knowledge, and mythological stories, as well as a variety of interactive activities such as slide cars and entertainment shows. This is a unique cultural-natural attraction where man-made features blend seamlessly with natural scenery, integrating educational value, visual appeal, fun, and hands-on participation.
