Covering 3.92 square kilometers, the Caishiji Cultural and Ecological Tourism Area of the Yangtze River is home to the Caishiji Scenic Spot, Wangfu Mountain, Hebao Mountain, and the Binjiang Wetland Park.

Caishiji Scenic Area lies at the foot of Cuiluo Mountain in southwestern Ma’anshan. With its unique natural scenery and rich culture, Caishiji ranks first among the three rocky outcrops.

Wangfu Mountain is located at the Binjiang River, 1 kilometer away from Caishi town. On the top of Wangfu Mountain, “Wangfu Rock” resembles a woman waiting for her husband to be discharged from the army in ancient times.

Hebao Mountain, commonly known as Baoji Mountain, is adjacent to the Caishiji Scenic Area to the south, Wangfu Mountain to the north, and the Yangtze River to the west. Halfway up the mountain is the Yugong pavilion, a double hexagonal pavilion with cornices and an extraordinary atmosphere.

Surrounded by green mountains, Binjiang Wetland Park is located in the Caishiji Scenic Area to the north and the Yangtze River to the west. Walking on the tree-lined trail along the river, you can witness a fantastic landscape of mountains and flowing water.
