Pinggu Hudongshui Scenic Area

The Pinggu Hudongshui Scenic Area is a national AA-level tourist attraction.

Scenic Area Introduction:

The Hudongshui Scenic Area is one of the key tourist destinations in Pinggu, located in Huangsongyu Township in the northeastern part of Pinggu District, Beijing, 21 kilometers from downtown Pinggu. Situated within a large canyon about 10 li long, the area spans a total of 9 square kilometers, measuring 6 kilometers from east to west and 1.5 kilometers from north to south, with a water surface area of 6,000 square meters and a built-up area of 26,000 square meters. It gets its name from the lake within the canyon, caves in the mountains, and the constantly flowing streams. The area features bizarre mountain peaks, deep and perilous canyons, dense forests, beautiful waters, and unique caves. In spring, the mountains bloom with flowers and birds sing; in summer, emerald waters flow amid cascading waterfalls; in autumn, the hills are laden with fruit and the foliage turns golden; in winter, the landscape is draped in snow and glaciers lie across the land. Local specialties in the Hudongshui Natural Scenic Area include Shilixiang (a type of fruit), persimmons, walnuts, apricots, and various wild vegetables. Mulberries can be harvested here every June.
