The Raorao Scenic Area, located in Raorao village, has an elevation of 1,500 meters and covers an area of 2.32 square kilometers. It is nestled between mountains and encircles green waters, with its landscape primarily shaped by karst topography. The region enjoys a subtropical monsoon climate with abundant rainfall throughout the year. It boasts 2,627 mu (175.13 hectares) of forested land, with a coverage rate of 70 percent. The diverse tree species and beautiful scenery earned it the honor of a "2018 National Ecological Culture Village" by the China Eco-Culture Association.

The scenic area offers various activities, including outdoor camping and cave exploration.

The camping options feature tent accommodations and self-pitched tents, allowing visitors to fully immerse themselves in nature. The best time for camping is from April to October each year. The camping base is on a high mountain plateau, surrounded by mountains blocking urban views and the surrounding light pollution. This makes it an excellent spot for watching the sunrise, sunset, starry skies, and fiery clouds. The area hosts events such as the tent camping festival, stream tracing, and cave exploration each year.
