★Longqing Gorge Trip" An unforgettable encounter🐟 From October to November 15, 2024, Longqing Gorge is open to the public for free. 🐹This place is picturesque. Longqingxia Scenic Area is located in Yanqing District, Beijing. It has unique landscapes and rich tourism resources. It is a popular place for leisure, vacation and sightseeing, attracting a large number of tourists. 🐟There are many attractions in the scenic area. 🍁Tianmen is spectacular, 🤩as if it is the door to the fairyland, 🐸its majestic momentum gives people a strong shock. Shenxianyuan is located halfway up Shenxianyuan Mountain. It was first built in the Ming and Qing Dynasties. Although it was damaged due to war, it was rebuilt and opened in 1992. There are more than 20 halls here, with upper and lower courtyards scattered around. The upper hall is dedicated to the masters of Buddhism, Taoism and Confucianism, while other halls have Bodhisattvas, the Three Officials, the Eight Immortals and other gods. 🥰In the main hall, the statues of the three founders, Sakyamuni, Laozi and 🌾Confucius, are solemn and majestic. The three religions of Buddhism, Taoism and Confucianism are worshipped together, demonstrating the tolerance and 🤠 breadth of Chinese culture. There is an oval sacred basin outside the west wall of the temple. It was once a reservoir dug by Taoist priests and carries stories from the past. 🌹There is also a dragon-shaped elevator in the scenic area, 🤯You can enjoy the beautiful scenery of Longqing Gorge from a unique angle when riding it. 🫶The Vajra Temple was not open, 🪴which was a pity for this visit. The fact that it is not open to the public means that tourists cannot peek into its secrets, nor can they understand its architectural features, the cultural relics it contains, or its religious significance, leaving them with nothing but expectations. Although there were some regrets during this trip to Longqing Gorge, I also gained a lot. The magnificent natural scenery and profound cultural heritage have been engraved in my heart. ✊

Dragon Gorge (also called Longqing Canyon) has crystal clear waters and beautiful mountain scenery. The Dragon Gorge is located 85 kilometers northwest of downtown Beijing and 20 kilometers north of the Badaling Great Wall. The gorge is a seven-kilometer karst-type canyon through which the Gucheng River flows. This place represents the grandeur and typical view of North China with a gentle touch of views of South China. "Longqing" is the name of the valley in Chinese. The history of the name goes back to the Yuan Dynasty. Emperor Renzong of the Yuan Dynasty was born in the village of Xiangshuiyuan (Fragrant Garden - Xiangshuiyuan) near the gorge. After his ascension to the throne, Jinshan County, where the village was located, was proclaimed Longqing District. In 1980, the Gucheng River was dammed, resulting in the Gucheng Reservoir. Now tourists can climb this dam on an escalator 258 meters long. The height of the dam is 72 meters - it is one of the highest in Northern China. Construction of the escalator began in October 1994 and ended in April 1996. It was a joint investment of 35 million yuan from China and Hong Kong. The escalator itself is made in the form of a dragon, from which it received the name Soaring Dragon. At one time, he even got into the Guinness Book of Records as the largest dragon in Asia. After climbing to the top of the dam, you can arrange a tour of the reservoir on a boat. The length of the excursion route is about four kilometers. At the same time, the width of the river in different segments ranges from 10 to 50 meters. The mountains on both sides are not very high, but they are incredibly beautiful and artificially ennobled. #longqinggorge #china
