瀑布

  大崖头瀑布

      

  Name:  Dayatou Fall                    

  汇龙瑞山西北坡清泉之水,流经一段曲折的山谷,在一片北东向花岗岩断崖上跌落,垂直落差达420m,水帘宽达30m。落点在中程村之南,瀑下形成巨潭,清澈见底,激起的水花,飘散至数十米之远,十分壮观。该瀑为目前所知我国落差最大的瀑布。

  The spring water from northwestern slope of Longrui Mountain weaves through a valley and falls to south of Zhongcheng village along the NE granite precipice with30min breadth. Its vertical throw is420 mwhich is highest as we present known. The water falls into a large pool with splash as far as several ten meters.

  安坪瀑布

         

  Name:  Anping Fall                    

  源于老鸦尖原骀始森林的山涧、溪瀑汇于龙瑞山西北坡的大谷中,沿落差达150m的花岗岩悬崖,分三级落下,水帘宽达25m。落点在小源口佛堂村之东侧,称为佛堂瀑布。形成于新生代。

  Anping Fall, formed in Cenozoic, origins from stream and fall from virgin forest of Laoyajian Mountain gathered into northwestern slope of Longrui Mountain, and falls as three steps along granite cliff with the throw of150 m, the water screen is as wide as25mand finally end at east side of Fotang Village in Xiaoyuankou.

  龙斗崖及泉崖喷雪

    

  Name:  Fighting Dragon Cliff and Waterfall on Cliff Spraying Snow

  龙塘之下,两面花岗岩绝壁交于喷雪崖瀑布之下,如两条巨龙夹雷霆御风争战,称谓龙斗崖。由云中湖流出的一股急流,从崖顶飘落于70m深的谷底,在谷风吹拂下,洋洋洒洒,如雪花飞舞,故称“泉崖喷雪”。崖下十里长峡,谷旁百丈深崖,壁立如削,谷下云飘雾障,神秘莫测,为第四纪早期冰川刨蚀作用形成的狭窄U形谷,后期叠加了流水的侵蚀作用。

  Under the Dragon Pool, two granite precipices meet beneath the waterfall of Spraying Snow Cliff like two dragon fighting with thunderbolts, it is what we called Fighting Dragon Cliff. A current flows out from Yunzhong lake and falls to the bottom of valley with70 min depth from the top which is blown by mountain-valley breeze like snows flying and dancing, so we named it as “Waterfall in cliff Spraying Snow”. The ten miles valley and cliff with more than300 mhigh are always shrouded in clouds and mist which increase the mystery of canyon. It is a narrow U-shape valley which is formed by glacial ploughing in early Quaternary and increases the erosion of running water in latter period.

  天池倒泻 (龙湫瀑布)

   

  Name:   Heavenly Pool Pouring Out (Longqiu Fall)                  

  瀑流沿由产状45°∠81°的裂隙崩塌形成的花岗岩陡壁直泻而下,入下部方形潭中,潭侧壁为受产状113°∠84°裂隙控制的陡壁,瀑布落差约30m,水帘宽1-2m。本瀑将石龙峡分为各具特色的上、下两段。形成于新生代。

  The current falls to square pond on the bottom along the cliff which is formed by granite collapsing along the fissure with the attitude of 45°∠81°, wall of pond is steep which is controlled by the fissure with the attitude of 113°∠84°. The Longqiu Fall formed in Cenozoic, approximately30mhigh and 1-2 mwide, divides theStoneDragonCanyoninto upper and lower sections with different characteristics.

  玉龙投峡

        

  Name:Jade Dragon Diving into Canyon              

  斑状黑云母二长花岗岩中一条宽达1—1.5m的浅色伟晶岩脉沿壁而下,直达深谷底部。伴有一股瀑流,沿245°和337°方向两组裂隙形成的水道曲折下落,形成瀑布,如玉龙挟水入峡,谷底形成宽仅1—1.5m的狭窄深沟。瀑顶一块巨石上刻有“玉龙投峡”,花岗岩板上见一由旋流裹挟砂砾冲刷磨蚀形成的小型壶穴。本处岩石形成于中晚侏罗世(距今170—137Ma),景观形成于新生代,距今65Ma以来。

  In porphyritie biotite monzonitic granite, a light-colored pegmatite vein, 1-1.5min width, goes down to the bottom of valley along the cliff with a current, it becomes a fall along channel which forms by two groups of fissure in direction of 245°and 337° like a jade dragon diving into canyon with water. A narrow deep ditch forms in bottom of valley which is only 1-1.5min width. The four Chinese word, meant Jade Dragon diving into canyon, is engraved on the top. A small scale pothole is appeared on granite rock which is corroded and abraded by rotational flow with sandy gravel. The rocks here form in middle late Jurassic (170-137 Ma B.P.) while the landscape forms in Cenozoic (65 Ma B.P.).

  银河瀑

           

  Name:  Milkway Fall                    

  拦河石坝形成之人造瀑布,形成宽阔水帘,跌落于谷内巨石之上,颇为壮观。

  The splendor Milkway Fall with wide water screen, formed by a man-made stone dam, falls to the large rocks in valley.

  寺上瀑布 

         

  Name:   Shishang Waterfall                   

  中元古界冷家溪群变质砂岩,沿产状为343°∠65°的断裂裂隙崩落形成陡壁,崖顶又沿产状为91°∠87°的裂隙带侵蚀成凹槽,流水从顶部凹槽中喷涌而出,沿绝壁分三级落下。第一叠落差12m,宽8m,瀑下形成一圆形水潭;第二叠高22m,宽10m;第三叠高18m,宽12m。瀑旁竹海涌翠,风景秀丽。

  The cliff is formed by metamorphic sandstone of Lengjiaxi Group in middle Proterozoic collapsing along the fracture fissure with the attitude of 343°∠65°, and its top is eroded to be a groove along the fissure zone with the attitude of 91°∠87°. The water spouts out of groove on the top and falls as three steps along the cliff which forms in Cenozoic. The first step,12mhigh and8mwide, erodes away a round pond under the fall; the second step is22min height and10min width; the third step is18mhigh and12mwide. Next to the fall, Bambooo forest flourishes to display an emerald sea.
