Enjoy the natural and cultural landscapes at Heilongtan Scenic Area
"Pingshatan" is located in the Heilongtan Scenic Area of Miyun District, Beijing. The reason for its name is that the waterfall on the pond flows gently from a 30-degree slope of rock 5 meters away into a large pot-like pond with white sand at the bottom, covering an area of about 8 square meters. Due to the calm and clear water, it is thus named Pingshatan. In addition to natural landscapes, Heilongtan also has many man-made attractions, such as: the Shouting Spring, Stream Adventures, etc. Below Pingshatan, the "Colorful Animal Rock Paintings" are created by painting various animals on the rocks in the stream according to the terrain and the shape of the stones, adding a touch of childlike fun to the scenic area.

Beijing Miyun Heilongtan Scenic Area
Heilongtan Scenic Area is located in Shicheng Town, the western part of Miyun District, closely adjacent to Miyun Reservoir and interconnected with Yunmeng Mountain Scenic Area. The scenic area is about 28 kilometers away from Miyun urban area, covering an area of about 1.95 million square meters, with a total length of 4.5 kilometers and a water level drop of about 220 meters. It is about 100 kilometers drive from Beijing city.
In spring, it is full of flowers; in autumn, the moonlight is like water. Within the entire scenic area, there are eighteen famous pools such as Pingsha, Luoyan, Qu, Die, Chen, and Xuantan scattered in the Grand Canyon, each of which is unique and shows its unique charm, making people dazzled.
The vegetation coverage of Heilongtan Scenic Area is as high as 80%, of which the forest coverage is 45%. The landscape features here are new, strange, and dangerous, and full of human legends. In the eight-mile-long deep valley, there are so many waterfalls, which is unique in the suburbs of Beijing. From beginning to end, each scenic spot has its own uniqueness, without any repetition. As soon as you enter the head pool, you can lead tourists into the fairyland, making people feel relaxed and happy, and happily go forward.
The Tongtian Waterfall is vertically steep, with walls like a knife cut, and the waterfall more than 50 meters high seems to fall from the sky, with smoke rising and filling the valley, and the cold air hits your face. Luoyan Pool is formed by the impact of Tongtian Waterfall. The pool is wide and deep, with a water surface of more than 100 square meters and a depth of three to four meters. In addition, the terrain is relatively open, surrounded by mountains, green mountains and clear waters, river beaches crisscrossed with pebbles, and wild flowers and grasses are lush. Whenever it is early spring or near winter, geese come here to rest, drink and eat, hence the name "Luoyan Pool".
The canyon is deep and all natural landscapes are interesting. The magic work of nature has carved this canyon into a mysterious and unpredictable scene.
The waterfall and Longtan are both magnificent and thrilling, with the waterfall roaring, the pool water spinning rapidly, the peak cliff steep, and the valley deep and narrow. When tourists climb the ladder bridge, they can enjoy the scenery from the dangerous situation. The fun of pursuing the scenery in danger by tourists, only if they are not in danger, can they not appreciate the fun of the scenery in danger. This kind of dangerous scenery adds strength to the tourists, making people feel that they are not good men without going to the real pool.

Heilongtan is a place that particularly tests physical strength and endurance
Interesting Heilongtan
Heilongtan is a place that particularly tests physical strength and endurance. The steep canyon winds upwards, the spring water accompanies the small stream all the way, making climbing extraordinarily wonderful, refreshing, and when tired, just sit down by the stream, barefoot in the water, and soon there will be small fish pecking at your feet, which is very interesting.
The canyon is lush and extremely cool, although it is always going up, but the unique scenery will not make climbing feel tired, when you reach the top of the mountain, you will find... only a glimpse of it will amaze the time!

Recently, the icefall in the Miyuntan Scenic Spot in Beijing Miyun has been on fire. Everyone has come here to take photos and punch cards. Pretend to be in Iceland is the most used description. As a person who travels around the island in Iceland in the winter, I am responsible for saying that it is not like Iceland. The ice waterfall here is completely artificial, and there is always a spray of water to form an ice hung. Although it is artificial, it is still possible to take a photo punch.

The waterfalls in Black Dragon Pool turned into ice in the winter (some of them were artificially sprayed). It is beautiful to look at the ice. In fact, the real ice is not so blue, but the cold color is automatically added to the mirror. This time we will have fun with our children as they can slide on the ice or skate freely. Take your child to keep warm and keep getting colder.

Li Bai has a poem: "On the fish and the Bitan, the wood falls on the Tan Shuiqing", the number of the mountains, the picture of the mountains and the beautiful water will be in front of you, and the fine goods come, I feel that these two poems are tailor-made for Beijing Black Dragon Pool. .
Black Dragon Pool is located in Shicheng Township, Miyun County, Beijing. It is surrounded by a 4km long river in the north of Lupiguan, with a water level drop of 220 meters. The reason why Black Dragon Pool is famous is that it is unique in its new, strange and dangerous. There is no repeating landscape in the entire valley shoal. It is wonderful in nature's wonders, and it is dangerous and thrilling in the waterfall Longtan.
The black mountain is steep and the trees are dense. The green hills on the two sides stand opposite each other. A winding wooden plank road traverses the mountainside. During the walk, the scenery under the feet is like a floating gauze. The breeze is over. All sorrow can be left behind.
Black Dragon Pool is full of water-eroded landforms. Many rock walls are cut like a knife. The waterfall of more than 50 meters high descends from the sky, the haze rises, the valley is filled, and the air is blowing. Black Dragon Pool can escape the summer in summer, red leaves in autumn, and winter is a good place to watch the wonders of the ice waterfall.
