Qianling Mountain Scenic Area, located 30 kilometers away from the capital, is planned to cover an area of 12.5 square kilometers. The scenic area boasts a thousand peaks competing in beauty, with extraordinary scenery. The main peak, with an elevation of 699 meters, is the first sacred mountain in the southwest of Beijing. The area has a long-standing Buddhist culture and is home to the largest group of grotto temples in Beijing.
For thousands of years, the mountain has been a thriving center for Buddhist activities, with numerous Buddhist buildings scattered throughout. Valleys are filled with caves of various sizes, which have been the retreat places for Buddhist monks since the Sui and Tang dynasties, leaving behind many Buddha statues, inscriptions, pagodas, and stone wells. By taking the Beijing Long Sightseeing Cableway, you can enjoy the unique natural beauty of overlapping mountains and competing peaks. Here, ancient caves, strange rocks, green plants, and waterfalls are integrated into one landscape, fully reflecting the deep tranquility of the forest, the quietness of the ancient roads, the fragrance of mountain flowers, and the interesting chirping of birds. While relaxing, you can bathe in a natural oxygen bar, feeling the civilization of mankind and the subtlety of Buddhism. The park is open all year round from 08:30 to 17:30, and the cableway operates from 8:30 to 16:00 daily.
