The highest peak has an altitude of 1,729.13 meters, being the second highest in Dabie Mountain. The scenic zone boasts many historical sites, lofty and precipitous peaks, dense forests and elegant bamboo forests, deep pools and groups of waterfalls, strange pines and rocks.

The towering peaks here are enveloped in clouds all year around. The thundering 108 relay-style waterfalls constitute an awe-inspiring natural scene unique in East China. Of them, 18 have a fall of more than 50 meters. The White Horse Grand Canyon Scenic Area, a newly-developed one in the Tiantangzhai Scenic Area, is the place where all the water rushing down the mountain meets, thus forming the headwaters of the Huaihe River.

In addition to these breathtaking beautiful landscapes, the long history, red culture, simple-hearted locals and the well-preserved natural ecological environment are also very attractive to tourists. Now the Tiantangzhai Scenic Area has become an ideal place for tourists to go close to nature.
