Qinghe Primitive Forest

　　The Qinghe Forest Scenic Area is situated in Lianghe Town on the border of Shaanxi and Gansu provinces, spanning nearly 200,000 acres. As a key component of the Western Qinling Primitive Ecological Reserve, it ranks among the best-preserved regions of primeval forest in Northwest China. Recently discovered as an ecological tourism destination, it is famed for its beauty, wonder, clarity, majesty, danger, and seclusion. The area features thousands of emerald peaks, lush mountains blanketed in green, ancient pines and cypresses towering overhead. Its streams run crystal-clear and sweet, with countless pools scattered across the landscape—earning the description “ten waterfalls, a hundred streams, and a thousand shoals.” Blessed with a superior geographical location and mild climate, the region boasts unique natural scenery and abundant flora and fauna, earning nicknames such as the “Xishuangbanna of the Northwest” and the “Kingdom of Flora and Fauna in the Northwest.” It is a paradise for sightseeing, leisure vacations, summer retreats, and health and wellness.
