Scenic spot introduction:

Jianchuan Thousand Lion Mountain (Manxian Forest) is also known as "Maixian Forest". In the forest, there are more than 2,600 lifelike stone lions and lion kings standing in the mountain. It has been known as the "Lion Roaring Xian Forest" since ancient times. The mountains are full of virtuous forests, blocking out the sky and the sun, with rugged rocks and green pine forests. On the cliff, the inscriptions of celebrities from past dynasties are engraved high on the forehead, with powerful and extraordinary momentum. Visitors stroll along the Yangchang Trail and encounter a scene every ten steps. There are scenes within the scenes, and the sceneries are different, and they gradually enter the beautiful sceneries. Feel the graceful artistic conception of "there is no way out despite the mountains and rivers, and there is another village with bright flowers and dark willows". Manxian Forest is located at the foot of Songgang Mountain at the northern foot of Jinhua Mountain in Jianchuan County, Yunnan Province.
