On the top of the hill, stones of various shapes stand upright like the horn of the unicorn. The Yitianting pavilion is located at the summit, pointing up to the sky and providing a panoramic view of the park.

The water of the Huaxi River (Flower River) is clear and clean and flowers bloom all year round in the park. Boats are available in the park for visitors to rent. A boat tour offers views of beautiful landscapes along the river. Visitors can also relax at pavilions or terraces under the shade of trees and enjoy the peaceful atmosphere of rurality.
