Shouyun National Mine Park

Shouyun National Mine Park is a national AAA-level tourist attraction.

Shouyun National Mine Park is situated in Ju’gezhuang Town, Miyun County, Beijing, covering an area of 3.58 square kilometers. It lies 16 kilometers from Miyun County town and 80 kilometers from central Beijing. To date, it is one of the few mining-themed tourist parks in China and marks the first instance where iron ore operations and themed tourism have been implemented simultaneously in Beijing, and even across the nation. With a focus on mining tourism, complemented by sports tourism and experiential theme activities, it is a comprehensive tourist destination integrating mine sightseeing, entertainment and leisure, as well as team-building training. The park mainly consists of four major scenic areas: the Mining Relics Area, the Geological Relics Area, the Industrial Production Area, and the Tourism Reception Area, making it the first national mine park in Beijing.

In the Mining Relics Area, there is a spectacular open-pit mine with a vertical depth of over 300 meters, formed through nearly half a century of open-cast mining. The Geological Relics Area features the rare plagioclase-porphyritic granite geological formation, of which only two such sites have been discovered worldwide—one in Sweden, Europe, and the other in Miyun, Beijing. Its formation remains a mystery to this day. The Industrial Production Area is a tourist visiting zone composed of production process displays, featuring three main exhibits: the “Wastewater Project,” the “Waste Rock Project,” and the “Tailings Sand Extraction Project.” At Beijing’s only iron mine museum, visitors can learn about iron ore and mineral science through various high-tech means such as interactive flip books, holographic imaging, a magnetic levitation globe model, and a dynamic cinema.

The scenic area boasts rich flora and fauna resources, as well as fresh air, making it highly suitable for sightseeing, leisure vacations, conferences, training, and team-building activities. It offers complete accommodation, dining, and entertainment facilities.

Shouyun National Mine Park is recognized as a social education activity site for primary and secondary schools in Beijing, as well as a science education base in the city.

Shouyun National Mine Park was built with self-raised funds from the enterprise. Upholding the principles of serving society, benefiting humanity, and operating with minimal profit, the park offers a 50% discount on admission fees for students and cardholders (holders of the “Roam Beijing” bank card).
