Taolinkou Scenic Area is located in the northwest of Qinhuangdao City, a famous tourist destination. It is a scenic tourist area built on the landscape of Taolinkou Reservoir, a national large-scale water conservancy hub project, and the surrounding natural and cultural landscapes. The total area of the scenic area is 220,000 mu, and the water area is 60,000 mu. The dam in the area is majestic, the water is clear, the peaks are numerous, the air is fresh, and the birds are singing. It has the beauty of the "Little Three Gorges", the clarity of the "Lijiang River", and the reputation of "natural oxygen bar". The majestic dam and the ancient Great Wall complement each other from afar, forming a beautiful picture of a jade belt with pearls under the blue sky and white clouds. Taolinkou Reservoir is a national large-scale water conservancy hub project. The high gorge and flat lake formed after the reservoir is filled with water allow tourists to appreciate the charm of the "Little Three Gorges". Take a boat up, the breeze blows on your face, the waves are flying, the water birds are dancing, and the mountains are beautiful. The water surface of the reservoir is winding and serpentine, and the water follows the mountain, sometimes wide, sometimes narrow, and the water is clear and green like jade. The two banks are lined with mountains, some with steep cliffs, and some with undulating peaks. The water is clear, the peaks are strange, and the scenery is secluded, which has some flavor of the "Wu Gorge" of the Three Gorges of the Yangtze River. Because of the clear water, some tourists who have just returned from the Li River sincerely praised that this water is purer and more beautiful than the "Li River" water. There are also old experts who have traveled to foreign countries, all over the country, and inside and outside the Great Wall. They can't help but say that they didn't expect there is such clear water. This water is really good... Northern region, southern atmosphere. The "Moon Bay" in Taolinkou Scenic Area is praised by tourists as the "Little Guilin outside the Great Wall". The bamboo rafting developed here fills the gap in Qinhuangdao's tourism market and is known as the "No. 1 Rafting in Qinhuangdao." The water in "Moon Bay" is crystal clear; the mountains are shrouded in mist and the peaks are emerald and bizarre. The natural wonders such as "Beauty Peak", "Divine Pestle Peak" and "Lying Camel Peak" are lifelike, like the work of nature. The kind and peaceful "Lying Buddha Peak" has the bearing of the Leshan Giant Buddha. With a bamboo pole in hand, "a small bamboo raft floats in the middle of the river, with towering green mountains on both sides...", there are mountains in the water, water in the mountains, the boat cruises over the peaks, the clouds cruise at the bottom of the river, it is like a poem or a painting, and then there is "sister, you sit at the bow, brother walks on the shore...", the tourists who come here to find the "Little Guilin outside the Great Wall" are satisfied and have had their fill of being in the water town of Jiangnan, even if the boat does not listen to their calls and twists and turns; even if they are exhausted and sweating after going downstream or upstream, the answer they hear is still "it's okay, it's really enjoyable..." In fact, the most important thing about traveling is the feeling of happiness after physical and mental satisfaction.

Philosophy related to the heritage

Interpretation from the perspective of Eastern philosophy: From the perspective of Eastern philosophy, especially Taoist thought, Taolinkou Reservoir can be regarded as a symbol of harmonious coexistence between nature and humans. Taoism emphasizes "Tao follows nature" and believes that people should follow the laws of nature rather than force changes. The construction of Taolinkou Reservoir, on the one hand, reflects human use of nature. On the other hand, its design and management must also follow the laws of nature, such as water circulation and ecological balance, to achieve sustainable development. The existence of the reservoir not only provides water resources for the surrounding areas, but also promotes ecological protection, reflecting the concept of "harmony between man and nature". Interpretation from the perspective of Western philosophy: From the perspective of Western philosophy, especially from the perspective of pragmatism or existentialism, Taolinkou Reservoir reflects more of human transformation and utilization of the natural environment. Pragmatism emphasizes the effectiveness and practicality of practice. The construction of the reservoir meets human needs for water resources and reflects the interaction between human wisdom and the natural environment. From an existentialist perspective, the existence of the reservoir also reflects the choices and free will of human beings in the face of nature, that is, human beings have the ability to transform nature according to their own needs, but they also need to bear corresponding responsibilities and think about the relationship between human beings and nature, as well as the impact of such transformation on ecology and society. Whether it is the harmonious coexistence of Eastern philosophy or the practice and freedom of Western philosophy, Taolinkou Reservoir, in its unique way, shows the complex and subtle connection between human beings and nature, as well as the profound philosophical thinking contained in this process.
