Jinyun Mountain is located in Beibei District, Chongqing. It is named after Jinyun Temple in the mountain. The scenic area is rich in vegetation. Chongqing Botanical Garden is also in the mountain. It is a good place for surrounding citizens to escape the summer heat and climb mountains. Baiyun Taoist Temple at the mountainside is a base for Taoist health preservation and cultivation. It is said that Faye Wong and Li Yapeng also came here for cultivation and health preservation. Jinyun Mountain is far from the main urban area of Chongqing. Tourists usually arrive at Beibei District first and then transfer to a minibus to the cableway station at the foot of the mountain. At the other end of the cableway station is the gate of the scenic area (30 yuan for upward journey, 20 yuan for downward journey, and 40 yuan for round trip.). If you walk to the gate of the scenic area, it will take about an hour. In addition to the beautiful natural scenery of Jinyun Mountain, Jinyun Temple at the foot of the mountain and Baiyun Taoist Temple in the middle of the mountain are all good cultural attractions. Jinyun Temple was built in the first year of Jingping in the Liu-Song Dynasty of the Southern Dynasties (423 AD). There are ancient stone carvings such as the late Tang Dynasty stone screen wall, the Song Dynasty memorial archway, and the Qing Dynasty Naga Grotto in the temple. Baiyun Taoist Temple located in the bamboo forest at the mountainside is a base for Taoist health preservation and cultivation. It is said that Faye Wong and Li Yapeng also came here for cultivation and health preservation. The original summer office site of the Southern Bureau of the Communist Party of China is also preserved in the mountain. There are many farmhouse inns in Jinyun Mountain that can provide catering and accommodation services. If it is only for climbing mountains and escaping the summer heat, you can return to the main urban area of Chongqing on the same day. If it is for spending the weekend, you can stay overnight in a farmhouse inn in the mountain. The scenic area is open for free on two days, March 12 (Arbor Day) and March 21 (World Forestry Day).
