The cultivation of sweet persimmons in Luotian has a history of more than 1000 years. In ancient times, when daughters got married, they used persimmon trees as dowry. During the Japanese invasion of China, a special force was dispatched to loot Zan Stone sweet persimmon specimens and transport them back to Japan. In the 1980s, experts were sent to Zan Stone to study its soil and water. The sweet persimmons in Japan today are the offspring of Zan Stone. ✅Must experience: There are more than 80 pools in the Three Mile Dam hot spring area, including various medicinal pools, decompression massage pools, beauty pools, etc., as well as a special children's water play pool, which is very comfortable and enjoyable for the whole family!
