Jiudaowan Grand Canyon

Jiudaowan Grand Canyon

To the northwest of the canyon lies Shiwa Mountain, and to the south is Zebra Mountain. The two mountains stand towering, with the Jiubian River winding through them, where streams and waterfalls cascade everywhere. The scenic area features over ten natural formations including “Flowing Sand,” “Swallow Tail,” “Twin Waterfalls,” “Stone Cave,” “White Sand,” “Mirage,” “Hanging Rock,” “Snail,” and more than ten deep pools — all naturally formed in unique positions and angles. The area has three wonders: “Turtle and Frog Rock,” “Stone Footprints,” and “One Step Cool.” Facilities in the scenic area include a natural swimming pool, tent camping zone, wooden cabins, and a guesthouse.

From September to October each year, you can also pick oil chestnuts, apples, snow pears, and walnuts.

Transportation: Take a bus from Dongzhimen to Miyun, then transfer to a Miyun Reservoir west-line bus (either large or small) that goes directly to the entrance of the scenic area. By car, take the Jingmi Road from Sanyuanqiao to Miyun, then head west toward the Miyun Reservoir for about 25 kilometers to reach the site.
