分布于古田镇、红豆杉园和罗胜一带的花岗岩，形成于距今约2.20亿年前的三叠纪时代。这种花岗岩的特点是岩石由长石、石英、角闪石、黑云母以及榍石等粗矿物颗粒构成，并发育有长度在 3-5 厘米、甚至达10厘米以上的钾长石巨晶。
The granite distributed on the outskirts of the Gutian Town, Chinese Yew Park and the region around Luosheng Village was formed in the Triassic Period about 220 million years ago. The granite is characterized by feldspar, quartz, hornblende, biotite, sphene and other coarse mineral particles, and contains K-feldspar megacrysts with a length of 3-5cm or even more than 10cm.
花岗岩体的球状风化产物，其表层风化物被剥离以后，风化的残余部分多呈球形，故称石蛋地貌。由于多具砂性，疏散易蚀，故花岗岩山坡又易引起严重的水土流失，沿节理常有沟谷发育。
After the surface weathering products are peeled off, the weathering residuals are mostly spherical, so it is called the "Spherical stone landform". Due to its sandy nature and easiness to be eroded by evacuation, serious water and soil loss can easily take place on the granite hillside and gullies along the joints were often developed.
冠豸山（“豸”读“zhai”）以其主峰形似古代御史（法官）佩戴的獬豸冠而得名，寓含刚正廉明之意。以绵延十里的单斜式峰丛、密集分布的石墙群为主要特征，是典型的壮年期丹霞地貌。波光粼粼的石门湖、九龙湖与该区山体相互辉映，形成了美丽的湖光山色。
独特的地理位置、优美的自然风光，成为早期客家人选址的理想之地。冠豸山书院群、竹安寨古屋场遗址积淀了厚重的客家文化遗产。
Guanzhaishan Mountain is named after its main peak, which resembles the crown worn by the ancient imperial censor (judge), and conveys the idea of integrity and uprightness. It is a typical Danxia Landform in its prime time, which is characterized by monoclinic peak clusters and dense stone walls. Shimenhu lake, Jiulonghu lake and the mountains in the area add to each other’s splendor, forming a beautiful lake and mountain scenery.
The unique geographical location and beautiful natural scenery make it an ideal place for the early Hakka people to choose their home. The Guanzhaishan Academies and the Zhu’anzhai Ancient House Site are the Hakka cultural heritage.
黄连盂大绝壁呈北东走向位于黄连盂主峰的东侧，由砂岩、砂砾岩构成，长约5000米，高差约500米，构成雄伟壮观的崖壁景观。地质学家实地考察证实，崖壁的形成主要受北东向展布的节理控制，流水侵蚀和重力崩塌是其形成的主要动力。
The NE-trending Huanglianyu Precipice is located at the east part of the main peak of Huanglianyu Mountain. It is composed of sandstone and sandy conglomerate, with a length of about 5000 meters and a height difference of about 500 meters, forming a magnificent cliff landscape. According to the field investigation by geologists, the formation of the cliff is mainly limited by the joints distributed in the NE direction, and the main driving force of the formation is water erosion and gravity collapse.
“江山睡美人”为象形山峰，由石英砂岩构成，是黄连盂最著名的景观。站在山塘村观景台，抬头仰望，远处的山脊线轮廓恰似一位形象逼真的天然“美女”。
The "Sleeping Beauty" is a pictographic peak composed of quartzose sandstone, which is the most famous landscape of Huanglianyu Mountain. From the viewing platform of Shantang Village, the outline of the distant ridge line is just like a natural beauty with vivid image.
江山大峡谷底部是蜿蜒的铜钵溪，大峡谷的一侧崖壁就是总长约1000多米，相对高差300余米，坡度大于80°的大绝壁，犹如大自然竖起的一道“天然屏障”。地质学家实地考察证实，这道“天然屏障”的展布主要受岩石中发育的节理控制，其形成则是风化剥蚀、流水侵蚀和重力崩塌作用的共同结果。
At the bottom of Jiangshan Valley is a winding Tongboxi Creek. The cliff on one side of the valley is over 1000 meters in length, with a relative height difference of more than 300 meters, and a gradient of more than 80 degrees, just like a "natural barrier". According to the field investigation of geologists, the distribution of this "natural barrier" is mainly limited by the joints developed in the rock, and its formation is the common result of weathering and erosion, water erosion and gravity collapse.
是江山风景区的核心旅游线路，峡谷长约8千米，高差约300余米。总体走向为北西方向。走进江山大峡谷，山风、清溪、飞瀑、古树相互辉映，更有“千米屏障”、“太公钩鱼”、回音台阶等景观，点缀山中，构成一幅和谐有致的天然画卷。
Jiangshan Valley is the core tourist route of Jiangshan scenic spot. The valley is about 8km in length and a height difference of about 300m. It goes along the north-west trend. The mountain wind, transparent stream, waterfalls and ancient trees in the Jiangshan Valley add radiance and beauty to each other, and there are also "1000-meter Screen Cliff", "Jiang Taigong Fishing", Echoing Steps and other landscapes, which constitutes a harmonious and natural picture.
位于上杭县步云乡，地处梅花山自然保护区的边缘，海拔1250m，园区面积4794亩、缓冲区面积2522亩。龙岩市政府于2000年8月投资建设，率先在全国实施了濒危物种华南虎的拯救工程，该园以开展华南虎人工繁育、半野化、野化豢养、保护生物学和遗传学研究为主体，是集科学研究、科普教育和生态旅游为一体的多功能森林动植物园。
It is located in Buyun Town, Shanghang County, next to the Meihuashan Nature Reserve, with an altitude of 1250m. The park covers an area of 4794 mu and the buffer area is 2522 mu. The park was built under the South China Tiger Rescue Project sponsored by Longyan Municipal Government in August 2000. It focuses on the artificial breeding, semi wild to wild breeding, conservation biology and genetics research of South China tiger. It is a multi-functional forest animal and plant garden integrating scientific research, education and eco-tourism.
有一种植物，它从冰川时期留存至今，它高大挺拔、枝叶繁茂，树高可达30m，直径可达1m，它就是南方红豆杉。我们可以在气候温暖湿润的南方地带一睹其真容。闽西龙岩地区是福建省南方红豆杉天然资源最多的地区，其中较具有代表性的为梅花山自然保护区的红豆杉生态园。笔者作为龙岩地质公园科普志愿者训练营的营员，曾有幸前往梅花山参观学习，记得大巴驶过古田会议旧址不久，爬了一段山路，就到了红豆杉生态园。当时下着小雨，山上烟雾缭绕。查找资料方知梅花山位于上杭、连城、新罗三县（区）交界地带，属于亚热带海洋性季风气候，水热条件好，土层深厚，而这样优越的生态环境为南方红豆杉的生长创造了得天独厚的条件。
南方红豆杉分布广泛却数量稀少，被列为国家Ⅰ级重点保护野生植物，也被称为“植物大熊猫”、“植物活化石”。那么，南方红豆杉为何如此稀少呢？
首先，这与它对生长环境的要求密不可分。在自然界，我们根据植物耐阴性的强弱将其分为阳性与阴性植物，通俗的讲，阳性树种又称喜光树种，要求在阳光较充足的条件下才能正常生长。阴性树种也称耐阴树种，在庇荫条件下才能正常生长，南方红豆杉便属于后者。除了对光照有严格要求，温度、降水等气候条件同样会制约其生长繁殖。这也是我国黄河以北几乎见不到南方红豆杉的原因。此外，南方红豆杉生长较慢，种子产生的数量也较少。以上都是导致红豆杉数量稀少的的自然原因。
但人为因素同样不可忽视，上个世纪的过度砍伐、掠夺式的开采以及森林环境破坏都导致南方红豆杉资源不断锐减。值得庆幸的是伴随着相关法律的完善实施和自然保护区的建立，人们生态保护意识的提高，现存南方红豆杉得到了日益完善的保护。
南方红豆杉被誉为“植物大熊猫”其中一个原因就是它“全身都是宝”，其材质坚硬， 水湿不腐，是建筑和家具等行业的优良用材；此外，作为常绿乔木，它素有“美丽红豆杉”之称，是美化城乡园林的绿化树种；据报道，红豆杉植物体有可能用于制造生物农药……当然，最值得一提的是它的抗癌作用，南方红豆杉的树皮，根部、枝叶，含有一种名叫紫杉醇的化合物，被国际公认为最有潜力的抗癌新药， 特别对转移性卵巢癌、 乳腺癌和非小细胞肺癌等癌症，其药用价值极高。
适宜的气候环境、良好的土壤条件与完备的保护措施是龙岩地质公园内南方红豆杉数量众多的原因。而公园更是有着桫椤、钟萼木、银杏、金毛狗等多种珍稀植物以及华南虎、蟒蛇、黄腹角雉、金钱豹等多种动物，是“野生动物的避难所”、“天然动物园”。自然保护区不仅拥有丰富的野生动植物资源，也有奇特的自然景观，如石蛋等独具特色的花岗岩地貌。因此，梅花山不仅具有地质科学意义，也带有特殊的自然属性，具有较高的美学观赏价值，值得一游。中国龙文化，世界岩风光！龙岩地质公园欢迎您！
