Suobuya Stone Forest – Ticket, Opening Hours, Location, and Highlights

Suobuya Stone Forest (梭布垭石林), located in Enshi City, Hubei Province, spans a vast 21 square kilometers and is hailed as the world’s foremost Ordovician stone forest. Resembling a colossal gourd, the entire stone forest is surrounded by lush greenery, with peaks competing for attention. Suobuya Stone Forest boasts over 100 classic natural landscapes, featuring four main areas: Qinglong Terrace, Lotus Village, Mozi Valley, and Nine Dragons Gathering. Each area possesses its unique characteristics, with the distinctive “溶纹” (rune-like patterns) and “戴冠” (crowned) landscapes standing out as major highlights. The site is a veritable ancient geological museum, with narrow crevices, hidden wonders, and fossilized relics scattered throughout.

As one of the first developed natural attractions in Enshi Prefecture, Suobuya is uniquely named in Tujia, the local ethnic language, where “梭布” translates to “three or more.” Suobuya thus refers to multiple mountain passes, showcasing the region’s rich intangible cultural heritage. Recognized as the “Home of Excellent Folk Art in China,” the area is steeped in cultural significance. Local mountain songs represent the soul of the culture, and the Daughter’s Gathering is a cultural representation within the scenic area. Suobuya Stone Forest is not just a geological wonder; it’s a cultural haven, a testament to the rich heritage and natural beauty of Enshi City.

Highlights of Suobuya Stone Forest

Qinglong Terrace

During the annual Qingming Festival in April, Suobuya Stone Forest comes alive with the grand “Cherry Blossom Festival” held near the Qinglong Terrace archway. April marks the peak of cherry blossom season, and the blossoms, swaying in the gentle breeze, create a delightful melody akin to the rustling of wind chimes. Local Tujia youth, adorned in traditional attire, and even visitors dressed in ancient Hanfu or Tang-style clothing, gather beneath the blooming cherry trees to enjoy lively conversations. The event attracts tourists from across the country who come to the area to revel in the vibrant atmosphere and admire the blossoms.

Qinglong Terrace is the largest and most diverse among the four main scenic areas in Suobuya Stone Forest. Notable attractions include the Qinglong Temple ruins, Camel Peak, Zhenlong Yuzhu, the Book of the Jade Emperor, Linjun Boots, Tian Haohan’s Mountain Patrol, and Linjun Crown.

Jiulong Hui (Nine Dragons Gathering)

Legend has it that nine dragons descended from the heavens to protect China. After millennia of cultivation, the nine dragons, answering the call of the heavens, gathered at Suobuya Stone Forest to ascend together. This convergence has endowed the area with abundant Feng Shui energy, resulting in lush vegetation, the melodious songs of countless birds, and the dance of phoenixes in the sky. It is believed that those who focus and observe here can discern the true forms of the nine dragons, ensuring a life blessed by their protection. Key attractions in Jiulong Hui include the Jiulong Hui Waterfall, Danfeng Chaoyang, Dragon and Phoenix Seals, and the Unity Wall.

Lotus Village

Nestled in a densely distributed stone forest, the Lotus Village area of Suobuya Stone Forest creates a breathtaking scene when viewed from above. The entire landscape is crafted with stone lotuses and green trees resembling a field of white lotus blossoms emerging from crystal-clear springs. As you wander through the area, the stone lotuses are abundant, creating an overwhelming and enchanting sight. Nature’s wonders abound, from the untouched Lotus Village to the solemn God Stone Square guarded by stone-armored soldiers, the impregnable South Gate, and bamboo shoots emerging after a spring rain. Beyond the natural marvels, the village is steeped in poignant human stories, like finding soulmates on the singing stage, and expressing heartfelt emotions under lovers’ umbrellas.

Mozi Valley

Mozi Valley stands out with its focus on karst caves and natural stone clefts. The area seamlessly integrates the beauty of birdsong and fragrant flowers with flowing streams, hanging trees, suspended stones, peculiar rocks, unique peaks, and stunning gorges – each a masterpiece sculpted by nature. This locale holds special significance as the place where the Tujia ancestors, Nuo Gong and Nuo Po, pledged their love, making it the origin and ancient haven of Tujia romance. Key attractions include Nuo Po Stone, One-Line Sky, Echoing Water Cave, and Millstone Rock. Explore the colorful and intriguing Seven-Color Karst Cave, marvel at the unique rocks and peaks, gaze upon the vast stone forest, and look up at the endless sky.

Vlog about Suobuya Stone Forest

从评论中总结出的有用提示

Visit Qinglong Terrace and Jiulonghui: Even during peak seasons, these areas tend to have fewer visitors. If you’re looking to take photos without crowds, these two areas are ideal.

Rest Areas and Amenities: The scenic area offers plenty of rest areas where you can find water, beverages, and food. Prices inside the park are generally reasonable, so you don’t have to worry about overpaying for refreshments.

Experience the Shanhaijing 5D Movie: Consider watching the Shanhaijing 5D movie, which lasts for about 10 minutes. It’s especially enjoyable for children and costs around 60 yuan per person.

Choose Appropriate Clothing for Photos: Since the terrain is mostly rocky, photos can turn out darker. It’s advisable to wear light-colored clothing or outfits with high contrast to make your photos stand out. This can help brighten your complexion and make the photos more vibrant.

Photo Opportunity at the Entrance: At the ticket checkpoint near Lianhuazhai, staff members dressed in Miao ethnic attire may offer to take photos with you for a fee of 20 yuan per photo. If you prefer not to take photos, you can politely decline and proceed quickly into the scenic area.
