The strata where the Fuping Tianshengqiao Geopark is located are the middle and lower subgroups of the Fuping Group. Due to large-scale changes in the earth's crust, the park has overlapping peaks, Cangshan is like the sea, and the streams are crisscrossed, which are strange and steep. The Fuping Tianshengqiao Waterfall Group Scenic Area is located in the southwest of Fuping County, in the Tianshengqiao Valley of Zhujiaying on the east side of Baicaotuo at an altitude of 2144m. This is a natural valley. The ecology is primitive, the mountains are steep, and the atmosphere is magical. There are nine waterfalls distributed in a row in the valley, forming a large-scale waterfall group, which is known as the largest waterfall group in North China. There are also metamorphic rock Tianshengqiao, metamorphic rocks of the Fuping rock group, glacial relics, and disaster geological relics. These geological relics are typical and unique.

Philosophy related to the heritage
Tianshengqiao Waterfall Scenic Area can present a unique interpretation from the perspective of Eastern and Western philosophy. In Eastern philosophy, Taoist thought is particularly suitable for this natural landscape. Taoism emphasizes "Tao follows nature" and believes that nature has its own laws and harmonious beauty. The flow of the waterfall and the stillness of the rocks show the perfect balance of movement and stillness. The water flows down smoothly, symbolizing the wisdom of "ruling by doing nothing": not fighting against nature, but following the way of heaven. The diversity and integrity of the waterfall group can also be regarded as a natural expression of "all things are one". From the perspective of Western philosophy, the waterfall group can be regarded as a model of aesthetic experience. In Kant's aesthetic philosophy, the grandeur and magnificence of the waterfall embodies the concept of "sublime", making people feel their own insignificance in front of nature and awe of the infinity of the universe. Natural philosophers such as Emerson emphasize the intrinsic connection between man and nature, believing that natural landscapes such as waterfalls are a bridge for the integration of mind and nature, awakening people's spiritual sublimation and deep reflection on life. Whether it is the Eastern Taoism or the Western aesthetic sublimity, the Tianshengqiao Waterfalls show the intersection of nature and philosophy, inspiring people to appreciate the harmonious beauty and greatness of the universe from different cultural perspectives.
