Forests cover 33% of the total land area of Ewenki Banner. Layered green mountains stretch far and wide, blanketed in lush vegetation all year round. Evergreen Scotch pines stand alongside graceful silver birch groves, where roe deer, sika deer, bears and moose wander freely. Wild berries hang thickly on branches across the hills, and rhododendrons bloom vibrantly beside gurgling mountain streams. Crystal-clear, sweet mountain springs bubble up from the woods from time to time.
Weina Arxan, a renowned health resort embraced by mountains on three sides, boasts breathtaking scenery. Its mineral springs rival the world-famous Vichy Springs in France. Containing more than 20 trace elements essential to the human body, the spring water boasts remarkable medical and health benefits and is revered as "holy water".
