It is surrounded by natural wonders such as the west slope of Changbaishan Tianchi and Wangtianqi Scenic Spot, with 84% of the area covered by primeval forests, and the Songhua River and Yalu River running through the whole area, which has nurtured the "three treasures of Northeast China" such as ginseng, antler and mink furs, and other rare commodities.
