Qingcheng Mountain feels like a serene retreat—lush forests, winding paths, and ancient temples create a calm, almost meditative vibe. You'll visit sites linked to Zhang Ling, the founder of Taoism, who preached here in 142 A.D. The highlight is Laojun Pavilion, a 9-story, 33-meter tower where you can overlook the entire mountain's panorama. It's a stark contrast to urban chaos—perfect for connecting with nature and history.

I just returned from traveling there.
Qingcheng Mountain is one of the birthplaces of Taoism in China and a world cultural heritage. It has historical and cultural value and can understand the history of Taoism.
There are Taoist temples such as Jianfu Palace, Tianshi Cave, and Shangqing Palace in Qianshan, where you can visit ancient buildings and Taoist relics. At the back of Qingcheng Mountain, there are Tai'an Ancient Town, Longyin Gorge Plank Road, Cuiying Lake and other natural landscapes. You can walk and watch waterfalls and streams.
Moreover, Qingcheng Mountain is suitable for all seasons. Spring outing and low temperature in summer are suitable for summer vacation; You can enjoy the red leaves in autumn and the snow scenery in winter.
