Nulurhu Mountain Nature Reserve

　　    Nulurhu Mountain Nature Reserve is known for its streams, woodlands, flowers, grasses, and rock formations. Covering an area of 2,000 hectares, the valley stretches over ten li. Within the valley, streams shine like ribbons, while peaks and ridges twist and turn—meandering like the Big Dipper and coiling like a long snake, visible intermittently. At the bottom of the valley, massive rocks pile up, varying in height, length, orientation, posture: standing, lying, crouching, sitting, crawling, running, embracing, or backing—each with its own unique form. The surrounding mountains are picturesque, with countless valleys teeming with flowing waters, creating a majestic, lush, and serene landscape. The scenery changes with the seasons. In spring, the breeze is mild, the sun is bright, the grass turns green, and red apricot blossoms burst with the vitality of spring. In summer, clouds billow and rosy clouds glow, wildflowers emit delicate fragrances, fine trees flourish, and shades grow thick. In autumn, the sky is high and clouds are sparse, forests are dyed in layers, and “myriad trees blaze red under the frosted sky.” In winter, snow blankets the land, glistening like silver and jade, with towering pines reaching into the clouds. Each season brings its own sounds—birds chirping, pheasants and rabbits gathering in groups, deer and roe darting about, full of lively energy. Deep within the valley, there are three natural waterfalls, each with distinctive features that inspire awe.
