"Flying down three thousands of feet, it is suspected that the Milky Way has fallen for nine days." A pure white stream falls from the sky and beats the rocks in the deep valley. Walking in the canyon, I can hear the sound of the waves and the roar is endless. On a hot summer day, I felt a cool breeze coming on my face soon after I walked in, which was cooler and more comfortable than air conditioning. Every waterfall in Longtan River has a touching story. "Dragon Girl Showing Bath" tells that the little dragon girl in the West Sea has lived in Longtan Palace for a long time, longing for the prosperity of the world and pestering the dragon king to take a bath in Longtan River. The Dragon King asked the little dragon girl to return to the Dragon Palace before the rooster crowed, or she would turn to stone. The little dragon girl came to the Longtan River to swim. Because the river was clear and cool, she forgot her father's warning. As a result, she became a stone, standing in the Longtan Valley, always accompanied by the Longtan River. ...

"The mountain is not high, and there is a fairy that is spiritual; The water is not deep, the name of the dragon. " "Longtan River" originated from a folk fairy tale. According to legend, the West Sea Dragon King, who is in charge of rain gear in the sky, made a bet with Tan, a fortune teller who lives in Yangwei. In order to win, the West Sea Dragon King privately changed the jade emperor's will and wanted to give rain to the world. Although he won the seed of Tambubu, he broke the dogma. In order to escape the punishment of the Jade Emperor, the Dragon King of the West Sea hid in the Longtan River under the cover of Tan, and escaped the pursuit of the heavenly soldiers and generals. In order to thank Tan for his help, the Dragon King of the West Sea spread the rain and dew here with fairy method, which benefited the people and made this area beautiful and prosperous. The Jade Emperor later saw that the West Sea Dragon King could make up for his mistakes in time, so he turned a blind eye and let the fish slip through the net. In order to thank the West Sea Dragon King, the local people built the Dragon King Temple here, offering incense for many years. The Dragon King of the West Sea was worshipped by people, and he was very happy, so he decorated his escape place a little, thus achieving today's "Longtan River" landscape.
