The Xiangshui Lake Scenic Area is located to the west of Mutianyu Great Wall in Huairou District, about 85 km from downtown Beijing. It occupies an area of 18 km and stretches about 5 km long. The scenic area is a splendid natural valley with a section of the Great Wall, an ancient cave, beautiful mountains, clear springs and ponds, as well as a spectacular waterfall. Xiangshui Lake is, in fact, not a lake but rather an opening of water from the head of a spring in a valley.
The lake is called Xiangshui Lake (Ringing Water Lake), because it is possible to hear the sound of its running water from afar. The spring is the biggest one in Huairou District, and the water is sweet and refreshing. There are lofty cliffs and steep mountains with diverse rocks and unique peaks on both sides of the valley. The section of the Great Wall was built in the Ming Dynasty (1368-1644) and winds up and down the green hills, resembles a gigantic dragon flying into the sky. The Moshikou Pass was considered an important pass of the Great Wall and was built in 1404 during the Ming Dynasty. The natural Lianyun Cave and Totem Pavilion halfway up the wall add mystery to the ancient pass. The Moya Inscription carved during the Ming Dynasty makes the pass even more majestic. The most stunning scenery in this area is undoubtedly the grand waterfall. The impetuous springs rush down the mountain and form the compelling sight of a waterfall for all to enjoy.
