Tickets cost 30 yuan, and you can see the tall Wang Zhaojun sculpture and the flowers blooming in the garden when you walk into the gate of the scenic spot. Going further in is the beach, grassland and azure blue lake. The colorful colors constitute a beautiful watercolor painting. The blue lake, green grassland, yellow beach and white clouds are floating in the blue sky. I feel that nature is so beautiful. You can ride horses on the grassland, you can lie on the beach chairs by the lake, and you can take a yacht for 85 people to go back and forth, and go to the opposite island to participate in various activities. You can ride a camel, ride a horse, sandboard, swim, and drive a desert cart. By helicopter, etc., there are also farmhouse fish farms. Eat, drink, have fun and play.

Facing a ridge to the south, the peak stands just like a dragon's head, with two holes in the middle like a eye, called Longyan Mountain. Whenever the sun rises in the east, the dragon's body is faint, and the sun passes through the hole and hits the city head directly. It is very spectacular.
