Category: Tourist Attractions 👁 100 views

The Zijinshan Industrial Eco-Tourism Area is located on Zijin Mountain, at the junction of Jiuxian Township and Caixi Town, about 25 kilometers north of Shanghang County. Bordered by the Ting River to the west and the Jiuxian River to the south, the area features rugged rocks and towering peaks that seem to touch the sky, and is known as the "Foremost Scenic Wonder of Hangchuan." It is one of the first designated “National Mine Parks” and among the first group of “National Industrial Tourism Demonstration Sites.” The scenic area is surrounded by mountains and water, boasting beautiful landscapes. It is rich in gold and copper deposits, with extractable gold reserves exceeding 146 tons and copper reserves surpassing 2 million tons—often vividly described as a “copper baby wearing a golden hat.” Major attractions include the open-pit gold mine of Zijinshan, the Qilin Summit Viewing Platform, the No. 1 Gold Ore Processing Plant, and the Gold Smelting Factory.
