Huyu
The Huyu Nature Scenic Area is located 2 kilometers northwest of Changping District, Beijing, on the north side of the Badaling Expressway. It features a variety of natural and cultural attractions, including the Huyu Valley, Baixian Cave, Que’er Gully, and a physical fitness and adventure training base.
The beautiful canyons of the Huyu Nature Scenic Area provide a pathway into the primeval forest. This 12.5-kilometer-long, 1.5-kilometer-wide valley is filled with undulating peaks and serene waters, offering 36 natural attractions. Begin with a visit to the “High Mountain Lake,” then climb the “Hundred Stone Steps,” traverse rugged mountain paths to reach the “Heaven-Connecting Pool,” cross the “Nine-Pond Waterfall,” and venture into the “Primeval Forest.”
The Millennium Ancient Temple of Que’er Gully: With its majestic mountains and grand atmosphere, you can first drink from the “Golden Silk Spring,” then climb through the “One-Line Sky,” take a close look at the misty trees that seem to reveal the shadows of immortals, and gaze at distant rock formations like the “Heavenly Dog Watching the Moon.” Admire the exotic flowers, ancient stone tablets, temple ruins, suspended coffins, and other breathtaking sights that stretch as far as the eye can see.
The Hundred Immortals Cave: Continuously filled with incense and the lingering fragrance of joss sticks, the cave entrance often shrouded in mist. The temperature inside remains cool in summer and warm in winter, with its profound depths and mysterious expanse. Stretching 1,200 meters with varying widths and twists, the cave features a maximum drop of over 90 meters. The famous “Dripping Water Guanyin” is considered one of the great wonders of Beijing. At an 83-meter height, the delicate “divine rain” falls year-round, nourishing the spiritual atmosphere and leaving visitors in awe. After leaving the “Dripping Water Guanyin,” climb another 170 stone steps to reach the highest peak of the Hundred Immortals Cave — the Skyscraping Pavilion. Standing under its blue-tiled, upturned eaves and looking south, you’ll be greeted by a rich fragrance and endless beauty atop the perilous peak.
Physical Fitness and Adventure Training Base: Offers facilities and equipment for activities such as hand-in-hand cooperation, rope crossing, sky ladders, hanging ladders, high-altitude monkey bars, and tightrope walking.
Leisure and Entertainment Activities: Boating, swimming, rock climbing, zip-lining, fishing, bonfire gatherings, pontoon bridges, outdoor karaoke, and sky ladders.
