Ningqiang Caochuanzi Scenic Area

　　The Caochuanzi Scenic Area is situated in Maobahe Town, Ningqiang County, Shaanxi Province, 70 kilometers from the county seat of Ningqiang, at an altitude of 1200 — 1900 meters. It is a small flatland nestled among the continuous peaks of the Daba Mountains, south of the Qinling Range. It neighbors Guangwu Mountain and Gucheng Mountain in Sichuan, as well as the Liping Scenic Area in Shaanxi.

　　The flatland within the scenic area features clusters of ancient trees with farmers working beneath them. The surrounding mountains are diverse and multilayered, displaying rich colors. A small river meanders through the valley, forming a series of waterfalls downstream. There are over ten caves scattered along the mountain slopes, each with unique scenery. The hillsides are covered with rocks of various colors and shapes. The area combines mountains, water, stones, forests, plains, houses, peaks, caves, and paths into one, presenting a primitive and natural landscape. Its scenery varies beautifully across the four seasons, resembling a miniature natural bonsai gifted by nature. With its distinctive natural views and pristine cultural landscape, it is praised as a “real-life Peach Blossom Spring.”
