Hunan Loudi Oil Stream, as the second largest tributary of Zijiang River in Jiqing Town, Xinhua County,Loudi City, is named as the stream is clear as oil. It is as long as 67 km and its drop height is as high as 281 meters, which makes Oil Stream a wonderful rafting zone.

Now, Chetianjaing Reservoir and auxiliary projects have been built on the upstream of Oil Stream owing to its abundant water volume and big drop height, which has solved problem of irrigation and water conservancy of 6 townships. What’s more, 5 stair power stations have been constructed on its midstream.

Oil Stream, deep and serene, is characterized by that its headstream and exit are hills and upstream and downstream are gorges and flat beaches and dangerous shoal are both valleys. Along the both sides of the stream towers green mountains with greenery covering the sky and dangerous cliffs fingering up to the heaven, and lies serene and twist riverbed, which make Oil Stream Drift full of excite and mystery.
