- Attraction Introduction -
- The Sancengping Scenic Area's Sancengping Agricultural Pond Soil and Water Conservation Education Park is located at the border of Yuanshan Township and Jiaoxi Township, in the upper reaches of the Dajiao River basin. The surrounding landscape is a tapestry of hills, forests, valleys, and farmland. In winter, the bald cypress trees turn golden-red, reflecting off the ponds, wetlands, and forests, showcasing a unique seasonal landscape of the mountain village. Due to the undulating terrain and the convergence of water sources, early farmers built numerous agricultural ponds here to store water, regulate runoff, and provide irrigation, forming a sustainable water management system for mountain agriculture. These ponds function to conserve water, reduce erosion, replenish groundwater, and regulate the microclimate. They also nurture frogs, dragonflies, aquatic plants, and wetland birds, creating a typical symbiotic environment of "water cycle—land conservation—ecological habitat."
