Few people and photogenic, Shijingshan's new wellness play is so advanced

The autumn air is crisp, and I like to go out for a walk 🍀. Relax on weekends without traveling far, I unlocked new ways to play in old Beijing ✌. Let's say, Shijingshan, which grew up with me, how many more surprises are waiting to be discovered 😝. In the fairy mountain blessed land, I had cultural and creative tea drinks, learned the basics of Tai Chi with the inheritor teacher, climbed the Gongbei Pavilion, and enjoyed the scenery of Shougang. A day of unlocking rich experiences, good mood, and new friends +💯. 🗺Tour route: Bixia Yuanjun Temple → Gongbei Pavilion → Shougang Park Shangri-La 🚙Transportation: For self-driving, navigate to "Xianshan Fudi Teahouse" and park at "Shougang Park P4 Parking Lot", then walk up the mountain. ⏰Opening hours: Tuesday to Sunday, closed on Monday. 👉Bixia Yuanjun Temple: 10:30-16:30 👉Gongbei Pavilion: 10:00-17:00 (entry stops at 16:00) 💌Visit Yuanjun Temple, many stories of Shijingshan This ancient building complex of Bixia Yuanjun Temple, which has a history of more than 500 years, reopened in May this year after renovation 👏. It is expected to be the next popular attraction, giving everyone a sneak peek. Bixia Yuanjun Temple is built on the mountain, away from the hustle and bustle of the city. On the way up the mountain, you can only hear the wind blowing through the leaves 🍃 and the clear sound of cicadas, so quiet that you can hear your own breathing. While feeling nature, "looking inward" is also a kind of practice. Surrounded by green pines and cypresses, the "Xianshan Fudi" new Chinese-style teahouse is a striking red ❤. Enjoy tea and chat with a few friends or sit alone in the courtyard to enjoy the sunlight, both are extremely pleasant. The drinks in the treasure gourd are so exquisite that you can't bear to drink them. The taste and shape are very similar to beer popsicles, which I have seen for the first time. When cultural creativity meets afternoon tea, it is really romantic 💐 💫I practiced Tai Chi in the ancient temple I will never forget this immersive experience. The teacher, as an inheritor, has an immortal demeanor. He was very patient in teaching us every move, making us beginners feel no burden and very stress-relieving. Tai Chi is not just a simple form of boxing; it is derived from nature. Having the opportunity to practice surrounded by ancient buildings is really wonderful 😎. 🔭Climb the Gongbei Pavilion and overlook Shougang Park Walking up the mountain with laughter, you can already see the distant scenery along the way. After climbing the Gongbei Pavilion, it is worth a big "Wow" 😀. On a clear day ☀, you can overlook Shougang Park, gaze at the Western Hills, and take in the winding Yongding River. Seeing this city I love from a different perspective, the feeling is different. Whether taking landscape or portrait photos here, they are very photogenic 📷. 🏠A different Shougang Park Shangri-La Shangri-La, transformed from the original Shougang power plant building, retains the structure of the industrial site and continuously innovates on this basis. It's really city-like‼️ Lotus leaf boats 🚣, spiral staircases, bird installations 🕊, every step is a carefully designed unique story. The flow of light and shadow makes photo-loving friends unable to stop. During the break, we also did a small psychological test, and the teacher explained it. Understanding oneself is the beginning of change. A day in oxygen-rich Shijingshan was really wonderful ✨
