The crags are all situated in or round Star Lake at once across from Paifang rectangular in downtown Zhaoqing. The region including the crags and Star Lake compromise 8 km². The lake is partitioned into five separate sections divided with small strips of land and walkways. They shape one of the maximum scenic locations inside the province and are one of the essential visitor draws of the city, the other being Dinghu Mountain. The crags are commonly referred to as the little Guilin because of their hanging visual similarity to Guilin's mountains.

One of the crags may be climbed, having steep stairs going up the aspect; on the top is a small pavilion for viewing the lake and neighboring crags.
