Little Yan'an

Little Yan'an

Beijing’s “Little Yan'an” tourist area is located within the Gaoyakou Nangou Natural Scenic Area in Liucun Town, covering a total area of 150 acres. The main facilities of the scenic area include 29 cave dwellings in the Yan'an style, situated on the mountainside in the northern part of the area. On the hillside north of the scenic area’s exit stands a miniature “Yan'an Pagoda,” which twinkles with lights at night, creating a particularly enchanting sight. Beijing’s “Little Yan'an” allows visitors to experience the frontier charm of northern Shaanxi without leaving Beijing, and to appreciate the pioneering spirit of the older generation of revolutionaries. It serves as an educational base for youth ideological and quality education. Beijing’s “Little Yan'an” is also hailed as a Northwest-style cultural park.
