More than 10 scenic spots with unique styles have been built in the scenic spot. Among them, the golden pagoda with an investment of 1 more than 100 million yuan has a construction area of 1 more than 10,000 square meters and a tower height of 22 floors. The 9,999 golden buddhas enshrined in the tower are 2,600 taels of pure gold, and the top of the tower is the relic of the Sixth Panchen Lama.
