Known for its pristine natural beauty, the county offers hiking through subtropical forests, exploring the dramatic Tongling Grand Canyon with its underground river, and witnessing the unique 'sky windows' — sinkholes that reveal the earth's depths. The local Zhuang and Yao ethnic minorities maintain vibrant traditions, from colorful festivals to intricate embroidery.
