Because the vegetation around the lake is in an excellent greening state, and the lake is close to the source, the water body of the steep lake is greener and clearer.

Due to decades of closing hillsides to facilitate afforestation, there are good mixed coniferous and broad-leaved forests and evergreen broad-leaved forests on both sides of Douhu Lake, with lush seasons. The most beautiful places are granite cliffs, grotesque rock wings, uneven situation, holes in stone crevices, oblique old trees, pale and beautiful flowers, drooping vines, clouds passing through their branches, stones protecting their roots, trees at the top of rocks, stones at the top of trees, water and light reflecting the walls, and fishing songs echoing.

Gannan Arboretum, a "rare tree forest island" built on the north bank of Doushui Lake, is a "care island" for rare and endangered plants in the world. Adjacent to the Botanical Garden is an ancient and towering folk island. The "Folk Custom Garden" hidden on this isolated island is like a museum in the virgin forest. The incredible "shemale dance", the Dai's "bamboo dance" and the Miao's "Lusheng dance" ... the green culture and folk art, which combine folk performances and forest leisure, are staged in this "thatched cottage" with different styles.
Not far from the folk island is Taiji Feng Ba Bay, and there is a station museum on the harbor. The original features of Jiangxi-Suide forest small railway terminal in the 20th century are completely preserved here. This narrow-gauge railway, known as "the treasure of world tourism", starts from Ganzhou and passes through the tunnel of time reversal, allowing tourists to enjoy the touch of steam and whistle leisurely and regain the lost years.
After Taiji Bagua Bay, it is the Qian Ying Market, which was built in Tang Hua. Vicissitudes, this well-preserved ancient town of Ming and Qing dynasties, with white tiles and wooden doors and windows still; Merchants' restaurants, which are still jostling with each other, are the representatives of Hakka ancient towns in southern Jiangxi.
As we all know, Wu Zhifeng is next to the Qian Ying market, which is five finger-shaped peaks across Hunan and Jiangxi. They all proudly display their personalities in their own unique ways. Among them, the spectacle of "flying to three thousands of feet" can be seen everywhere. The fierce current cut the stone mountain array into strange birds and monsters with static heads. Doushuifo Waterfall, at a distance of 1 km from Doushuidi, is hidden in the dangerous cliff of Xilong Canyon. Posted from Doushui Town, passing through the Zhu Gui Villa with the charm of Jinsong and Bamboo, climbing up the winding path, climbing the Longtan Mouth of the cliff, the sound of rumbling waterfalls haunting my ears, looking up and overlooking, the waterfall is 100 meters high and white, just like the lower bound of Bailong; Looking closely, in the misty water curtain, it seems that there is a Buddha sitting in the shower to clean himself; The steep narcissus is a Buddha waterfall, hence its name.
The stone Buddha in Leshan, Sichuan Province is an artificially carved Buddha statue, and the Buddha statue in the water curtain of Doushui Waterfall is a natural stone Buddha. When the sun shines directly on the waterfall, it is misty and colorful, and it is a fairyland scene. ...
Under the joint action of forest, lake water, sunshine and climate, Doushui Lake has formed a colorful and unpredictable meteorological landscape. Especially at night, the water vapor on the lake slowly rises and begins to form a fog group, which rushes to the treetops, then forms a fog group and rushes into the canyon, and finally forms a fog sea, which surrounds all the hills and the surrounding world. It is ethereal and short, just like a fairyland. It pays attention to distant thoughts and makes people relax. It presents a pure natural beauty, a beauty that needs no carving.

The folk customs here are mellow and virtuous, and they love to write "Eight Scenes Poems". They are used to inscribing on doorsteps and hall stickers, and a large number of folk proverbs and legends have appeared.

The highest artistic achievement of the Hakkas in Doushui Lake is the large-scale folk lantern "Nine Lions Worship the Elephant", which is a large-scale camp with 100 people.
