Longchuang Reservoir is located in Beizhuang Town, Banhu Township, shanting City, Zaozhuang City, about 20 kilometers away from the urban area. The water in the reservoir was collected here by the spring water in the northern mountainous area and was blocked by an artificial dam. It runs east-west, with a width of only 100 m and a length of 500 m. Water overflowed from the dam crest and fell from 30 meters, forming a waterfall with a width of about 10 meter. The sound of water is so loud that water droplets splash everywhere.

There is a boulder under the mountain wall on the south side of Longchuang Waterfall, which is about 10 meter long and about 5 meters wide. The stone surface is flat and smooth, one side is connected with the stone wall, and the other side is facing the running water. This is the legendary "dragon bed". The origin of "Dragon Bed" is related to the legend of Emperor Guangwu Liu Xiu. Later, the local township government built a barrage here, named Longchuang Reservoir, for water conservancy and agricultural irrigation.
