On all sides, verdant sunset-bathed hills meet the eye. The air was thick with the scent of the flowers. People could launch the tourism campaigns all the year round. Several hundreds of clear pools of all shapes and sizes inside the colorful limestone cave connect with the underground river by means of a vein maze.
The water was shining brilliantly and perfectly clear in season and out of season. The four seasons have different outlet positions and water level. No one could know for sure what are its source and destination. As the old saying goes, "Yongfu, having happiness forever," thus the local people considered Yongfu Cave as the true source of human welfare.
Yet the natural two words "Fu" and "Shou" and Shengjin Pool, Jinshatan Sand and Yinsha Mountain could add radiance and beauty to each other. They could not only make "Fu and Shou" atmosphere expressed with unambiguous clarity, but also added a touch of considerable polish. Visitors mostly enjoyed the weirdly-shaped mountain grottoes chiefly by viewing the scenery.
