There are 7 species of first-class protected animals, 30 species of second-class protected animals, 3 species of first-class protected plants, 41 species of second-class protected plants, and 13,041 hectares of ravine valley primeval secondary forest was approved by the State Council as a national nature reserve on January 14, 2008.
It is a comprehensive natural sports field integrating hiking, river tracing, caving, rock climbing, rappelling, rafting and other outdoor activities, which was approved as a national 3A tourist scenic spot in December 2016 and selected as the third batch of "China Forest Oxygen Bar" on December 20, 2017.
This is the first place of "Hunan Ma Lan", this is the name of the flagship animal "Borrowing Mother River Forest Frog", and it is the only place where the "wife system", one of the four major forms of marriage, remains. A forest, a stream, and a story weave together a unique ecological kingdom.
This is the "North Gate" of Yuanling County - Borrowing Mother Creek.
Located deep in the mountains of Xiangxi, Yuanling borrowed the mother stream, due to the extremely difficult production and living conditions in the old days, it was difficult to marry a wife and reproduce descendants. Influenced by the custom of "no filial piety has three, no descendant is great", it gave birth to the wife system of "borrowing the mother to give birth to a son", so the name is "borrowing the mother's stream", and the custom of "borrowing the mother to give birth to a child" is locally called "fox flower".
From 1934 to 1935, He Long and Xiao Ke led the Second and Sixth Armies of the Red Army to garrison the area around Mother Creek, Fire Field, and Qijiaping, established district and township Soviet governments, and formed guerrilla detachments such as Xiaobei and Nanxiping, leaving behind many heroic deeds in Borrowing Mother Creek, such as "fierce battles do not know the stream" and "heroic blood spilled in Nanxiping". The arrival of the Red Army brought red dawn to this once poor and backward mountain village.
The story of "fox flowers" in the past, in today's highly developed social civilization, has long become a unique resource for folk cultural tourism in Mother Creek. The local writer of Yuanling created the novel "Fox Girl" based on the theme of wife customs, adapted from the novel, filmed the movie "Fox Girl" and launched a large-scale outdoor live-action drama "Fox Blossom". Today, under the strong leadership of party committees and governments at all levels and with the strong help of COSCO SHIPPING Group, this once uncared for poor mountain village has turned into a beautiful scenery full of tourists.
Climb the Niangniang Gang in the story of "Fox Flowers", and overlook the majestic green mountains, clouds and mist, and the azaleas that are all over the mountains are layered on emerald flowers. Listening attentively, the stream babbling, birds singing, and cheers seemed to come from the gentle spring breeze:
Standing at Niangniang Hill facing the rising sun,
Look at the rising red sun,
Radiant.
We are full of confidence,
Because of this wonderful time.
After a century of ups and downs,
The original intention is not changed to create brilliance,
Yin Yin advised like a spring breeze,
Fang Xin is not yet the country, the country is rich and the people are strong.
Standing at Niangniang Hill facing the rising sun,
Look at the rising red sun,

The singing in the Qingyun Manor is flying,
Farmers markets in three major areas,
It's already full of traffic,
The brilliant lights of the flooding market town,
Let go of the dream of new rural construction.
Standing at Niangniang Hill facing the rising sun,
Look at the rising red sun,

A place where the mind dwells.

The legends here have a long history,
The development here is changing day by day,
Tomorrow is thriving here.
