景區是著(zhu)名(ming)的“牡(mu)丹(dan)之鄉”，每當(dang)清明前后，一(yi)片片、一(yi)簇(cu)簇(cu)的開放在(zai)妙石(shi)之間(jian)，石(shi)與(yu)(yu)花相(xiang)映(ying)成(cheng)趣，美不(bu)勝收。此(ci)處的牡(mu)丹(dan)與(yu)(yu)一(yi)般(ban)牡(mu)丹(dan)不(bu)同的是，這些種(zhong)植的牡(mu)丹(dan)不(bu)是用于觀賞(shang)，而是當(dang)地(di)居民出于社會經濟生活的需要而用于生產的牡(mu)丹(dan)。西山(shan)牡(mu)丹(dan)的種(zhong)植歷史可以(yi)追溯到唐代以(yi)前，由于西山(shan)地(di)區一(yi)直以(yi)來土地(di)貧(pin)瘠、土層較薄、土質較差，因此(ci)很難(nan)種(zhong)植農作物，而古(gu)代先民為了生存，在(zai)自(zi)然選擇的狀態下，逐漸形成(cheng)了種(zhong)植牡(mu)丹(dan)的傳(chuan)統。牡(mu)丹(dan)以(yi)根入(ru)藥，名(ming)丹(dan)皮，藥用丹(dan)皮遠近聞名(ming)。石(shi)林景區內有大小(xiao)溶洞(dong)(dong)有90多處，“神仙(xian)洞(dong)(dong)”洞(dong)(dong)廳寬敞，可容千人(ren)；“海龍洞(dong)(dong)”一(yi)廊(lang)五宮，洞(dong)(dong)內潛流可蕩槳泛舟。景區內山(shan)峰(feng)之間(jian)有許多清泉，山(shan)泉匯成(cheng)犀(xi)牛望的南陵湖(hu)鑲(xiang)嵌(qian)于峰(feng)間(jian)如一(yi)面銀鏡，流翠溢彩。景區內南山(shan)寺原名(ming)為靈(ling)巖寺，相(xiang)傳(chuan)為地(di)藏(zang)王金(jin)喬覺至(zhi)九華(hua)山(shan)前來此(ci)而建，聞名(ming)遐邇。
珠簾瀑布位于九龍峽谷之中。瀑布瀑高約40米，寬12米，水源來自九龍洞。其無規則、高低不平、寬窄不一的巨壁，據有關專家考證，是由數千年因水流形成的蓋華。珠簾瀑(pu)(pu)布(bu)會隨著雨(yu)季變化(hua)(hua)而(er)(er)變化(hua)(hua)，雨(yu)季時(shi)，寬約5米(mi)瀑(pu)(pu)布(bu)飄流而(er)(er)下(xia)，聲音震(zhen)耳(er)；天晴時(shi)段，瀑(pu)(pu)布(bu)形成串(chuan)串(chuan)水珠落入池中，恰似從半空中垂掛(gua)而(er)(er)下(xia)的珠簾。故稱“珠簾瀑(pu)(pu)布(bu)”。雨(yu)過天晴，時(shi)常可(ke)見(jian)彩虹和瀑(pu)(pu)布(bu)交相輝映的景(jing)象(xiang)出現(xian)，因此(ci)，又稱“七彩珠簾”。
“蟾(chan)蜍(chu)觀(guan)天(tian)”一景，相傳是月(yue)宮蟾(chan)蜍(chu)之王的化身(shen)。很早以前(qian)，西山及江南各地蚊蟲(chong)特別多，旱澇災害(hai)非常嚴(yan)重(zhong)，農作(zuo)物連年欠(qian)收，百姓們(men)被迫四處逃荒。為救助天(tian)下萬民，月(yue)宮蟾(chan)蜍(chu)王率(lv)領數名蟾(chan)蜍(chu)降臨人(ren)間，大吃蚊子及各種害(hai)蟲(chong)，其蟾(chan)蜍(chu)王因親眼看到民間人(ren)們(men)飽(bao)受(shou)蚊蟲(chong)及蟲(chong)害(hai)疾苦，采取滅蚊蟲(chong)措施，為防止蚊子及害(hai)蟲(chong)死(si)灰(hui)復燃，將自身(shen)變成(cheng)一座山靈(ling)石，遠觀(guan)天(tian)空，為民呼風喚雨(yu)。從此，天(tian)下風調(diao)雨(yu)順，農業(ye)豐收，百姓安(an)居樂(le)業(ye)。

這(zhe)里(li)是一(yi)(yi)處四(si)(si)山凹陷的(de)天坑，面積約1.5平方公里(li)。該村(cun)現(xian)有(you)孫(sun)(sun)氏居民(min)800多人，孫(sun)(sun)姓(xing)占(zhan)全村(cun)人口99.5%，據孫(sun)(sun)氏族(zu)(zu)譜記載(zai)，該族(zu)(zu)為三國時期(qi)孫(sun)(sun)權后裔。下宕村(cun)如(ru)今依然(ran)保(bao)留著完好的(de)明清老宅、石片院墻、青石池塘、千年古井等。一(yi)(yi)年四(si)(si)季也是風景如(ru)畫，同時這(zhe)里(li)也是丫山的(de)八大奇觀(guan)之(zhi)一(yi)(yi)。
因水(shui)(shui)(shui)(shui)質清澈，泉(quan)底不斷涌現珍(zhen)(zhen)(zhen)珠似的(de)氣(qi)泡(pao)(pao)，在此(ci)(ci)鼓掌，該泉(quan)又會冒出一串串形如珍(zhen)(zhen)(zhen)珠的(de)晶(jing)亮水(shui)(shui)(shui)(shui)泡(pao)(pao)，而得(de)名為(wei)“珍(zhen)(zhen)(zhen)珠泉(quan)”。據有關專家考證，此(ci)(ci)泉(quan)是(shi)由于巖溶水(shui)(shui)(shui)(shui)沿斷裂方向所(suo)發育的(de)溶隙裂隙，溶洞(dong)和(he)地(di)(di)下(xia)暗河流動時，受到透水(shui)(shui)(shui)(shui)性(xing)差的(de)紅層隔阻，使得(de)二氧(yang)化(hua)碳從地(di)(di)下(xia)析(xi)出，而形成為(wei)水(shui)(shui)(shui)(shui)中氣(qi)泡(pao)(pao)。該泉(quan)水(shui)(shui)(shui)(shui)常年(nian)恒溫(wen)，礦(kuang)物(wu)質豐富。具有較高(gao)的(de)飲(yin)用價值。相(xiang)傳，“珍(zhen)(zhen)(zhen)珠泉(quan)”是(shi)天宮王(wang)母為(wei)關愛天下(xia)百姓，命水(shui)(shui)(shui)(shui)龍(long)神將“瑤池”仙水(shui)(shui)(shui)(shui)降落(luo)此(ci)(ci)地(di)(di)，供民間抗旱和(he)飲(yin)用。
