Jiulongji is located in the northwest of Ningde UNESCO Global Geopark. The scenic spot is characterized by scientific and rare volcanic rock geological relics, beautiful landscapes, favorable ecological environment, and long-standing cultural landscapes.
Located on the eastern edge of the Eurasian continental plate, Jiulongji is adjacent to the activity belt of the western Pacific continental margin. It has a complex Mesozoic volcanic geology background with volcanic rocky mountainous landscapes. The history of volcanic activity and the geological and geomorphological evolution of the Jiulongji region nearly 100 million years ago have been recorded here.
In the scenic area, the central crater trail remains, and the ordinary volcanic rocks tell an extraordinary past life; the lovers rock, Shimen Mountain, the lotus peaks are majestic, the dripping water walls rise steeply Chihiro, and the bat gorge is deep and profound. The Jiulongji waterfall rushes down vigorously which looks like wandering dragons are paddling.
