Xianrenya, Gansu is located 45–65 km southeast of Maiji District, Tianshui, Gansu Province.

Below is a travel guide to Xianrenya, Gansu: Overview - Location: Located in Maiji Mountain Scenic Area, about 65 km southeast of Maiji District, Tianshui, northeast of Maiji Mountain Grottoes. - History: Dating back to the Northern and Southern Dynasties, it has a history of nearly 1,600 years. It was called Huayan Temple in the Song Dynasty and was renamed Lingying Temple by the Yongle Emperor in the Ming Dynasty. - Scenic area: It consists of three cliffs (East Cliff, West Cliff, and South Cliff), five peaks (Yuhuang Peak, East Cliff Peak, West Cliff Peak, Baogai Peak, and Xianzhu Peak), six temples (Muli Temple, Shilian Temple, Tielian Temple, Hualian Temple, Shuilian Temple, and Lingying Temple), and Xianren Lake. Natural Scenery - Xianren Lake: The lake is clear and green, surrounded by green mountains. The lake and mountains complement each other, like a natural landscape painting. - Forest Walkway: The red wooden walkway winds through the dense forest. Stroll along it to enjoy the fresh air and natural beauty. In autumn, the colorful leaves make you feel like you are in a fairy tale world. - Peak Forest: The scenic area is full of peaks and mountains, with the grandeur of northern mountains and the beauty of southern mountains. The "Eighteen Arhats Worship the Jade Emperor" landscape features peaks of various shapes. Cultural Scenery - West Cliff Temple Complex: The West Cliff is the main cliff. The temples are built along the cliff, stretching for about 90 meters. Most of them were built from the Tang and Song Dynasties to the Ming and Qing Dynasties. The temples preserve a large number of sculptures, murals, and calligraphy and painting tools, with high artistic and historical value. - East Cliff Buildings: There is the "Arhat Hall" of the Ming Dynasty, with exquisite Arhat statues of the Ming Dynasty, and the "East Grinding Needle Hall", which bears a legend similar to grinding an iron pestle into a needle. - South Cliff Xianren Sending Lanterns: The main building is the Randing Pavilion built along the cliff at the foot of the South Cliff. Every summer and autumn night, natural phosphorescence and oil lamps and candles in the pavilion intertwine, like a fairy holding a bright lamp shuttling through the valley, forming the "Xianren Sending Lanterns" spectacle, one of the ten scenic spots in Qinzhou. Travel Information - Transportation: Take Bus 37 to Xianrenya Station; or take Bus 34 to Maiji Mountain Parking Lot Station, Bus 5 to Maiji Mountain Station, and then take the scenic area shuttle bus. - Tickets: CNY 40 per person, CNY 8 for a one-way shuttle bus, CNY 15 for a round trip. - Opening hours: 08:30–17:00, last entry at 17:00. - Best time to visit: Spring and autumn are the best seasons to visit Xianrenya, with pleasant weather and beautiful scenery.
