The average elevation of the county is about 375 meters, which belongs to the valley area. There is no cold in winter, but it is very hot in summer. From July to August, the average temperature is above 27 degrees, the highest temperature is 43 degrees, and the rainfall is abundant. Suijiang is rich in konjac with local characteristics; Amorphophallus konjac can be processed into vermicelli with smooth taste and more elasticity than ordinary vermicelli.

Suijiang, which lives by the river, is the natural habitat of the national second-class protected animal giant salamander (commonly known as giant salamander). There are many kinds of precious fish in the river, such as "Jiangtuan" and "yellow spicy diced", which are delicious. There is an alluvial plain composed of pebbles and river sand between Jinsha River and Dawenxi, which is a natural and synthetic moat in this county, and there are many pebbles with different shapes and colors. During the dry season every year, thousands of people in the county waded to the dam every day to find beautiful stones for collection, forming a well-known "Suijiang Rock Culture".

There is also an interesting folk activity in Suijiang, which is "spanking". Clapper is a crustacean insect. Usually, its principal and interest are in mountainous areas. During the breeding season, it flies to Zhongjieba to lay eggs. During this period, the people of Suijiang almost walked out of the city and rushed here to turn over stones and catch "spankers". "spanker" tastes good. You can squeeze Chili juice into your stomach and fry it, or soak it in wine, which is very delicious and has pharmacological effects. For thousands of years, it has been loved by the people of Suijiang.
