Swing Frame

The Swing Frame stands at an altitude of 1,814 meters in a long, narrow valley that connects to the eastern side of Pingliang's Kongtong Mountain. The mountains are layered and dense with lush forests and thick grass. Within a north-south canyon that cuts through the area, two peaks rise abruptly from the ground like towering pillars, unconnected to the surrounding hills, strikingly resembling the frame of a swing. Legend has it that this was once where Mu Guiying swung. Today, iron remnants can still be found on the cliffs halfway up the mountain. Hence the name “Swing Frame.” Beneath the Swing Frame, the water flows swiftly, and there is a stone cave that extends deep into the mountain. Inside the cave, the stalactites are uniquely shaped, creating a magical and fascinating sight. The You (Yuan) – Ping (Liang) Highway winds its way past this site.

The Swing Frame is located at an altitude of 1,814 meters in a long, narrow valley that links to the east with Pingliang’s Kongtong Mountain. The terrain is rugged, with dense woods and lush grass. In a north–south gorge that runs through the area, two peaks rise sharply from the ground like tall pillars, unattached to the nearby mountains, closely resembling the frame of a swing. It is said that Mu Guiying once swung here. Today, iron ring remnants can still be seen on the cliffs halfway up the mountain, which is why it is named the Swing Frame. Beneath the Swing Frame, the water rushes swiftly, and there is a cave that extends deep into the mountain. The stalactites inside the cave are uniquely shaped, mysterious and enchanting.
