Yuanyang Stream
鸳鸯溪
A canyon of waterfalls linked by walkways, including Baizhang Ji and Xiaohukou Falls. It is also a wintering habitat for mandarin ducks.
Yuanyang Stream is a National Scenic and Historic Interest Area with a deep, steep gorge. Walkways run along the canyon past Baizhang Ji (Hundred-Zhang Cascade), Cangtan Majestic Falls (Xiaohukou), the Water Curtain Cave and other falls. At its narrowest point the gorge is only about 1 metre wide. Wild mandarin ducks often winter here, and there is also a Yiyang macaque area. Admission is about 78 yuan. A combined ticket with Baishuiyang is available. The full walk takes about 3 hours, with many steps, so take care on rainy days when the path is slippery. Yuanyang Stream is about 10 km from Baishuiyang, so the two can be visited in one day or over two days.
