Beijing Baqi Cave Scenic Area | The caving adventure begins

The Beijing Baqi Cave Scenic Area is located in the Mentougou District of Beijing, just 500 meters from the famous Tanzhe Temple. The ancient Baqi Cave is deep and long, with a total length of 1350 meters, known for its unique folded '8' shape and eight spectacular wonders, hence it is acclaimed as 'a natural and divine spectacle'. The Baqi Cave has multiple layers and branches, with a huge cave body. The main cave, branch caves, horizontal caves, vertical caves, water caves, and dry caves crisscross each other, winding and twisting, making it a true underground labyrinth. The main attractions include: the Underground Great Wall, Dripping Guanyin, Xiansheng Dragon Pool, Pillar Holding the Sky, Lotus Floating Bridge, Living Buddha Ji Gong, Subduing the Tiger, Heavenly Pool, Heavenly Pot, Eight Immortals Crossing the Sea, Flying Dragon in the Sky, Cave Wall Cinema, Arhat Corridor, Prayer Wheel, Infinite 8, and the huge folded 8. Baqi Cave boasts the world's first cave cinema, utilizing a huge natural flat rock wall that is hundreds of meters long and over eighty meters high inside the cave, and employing the world's most advanced movie projection technology to present a visual feast for visitors underground. Baqi Cave is the largest natural geological scenic karst cave in northern China that combines both water and dry caves. The characteristic landscape is the huge folded '8' inside the cave, which records the entire process of geological changes in the Beijing area and is the best physical textbook for geology. Tour Tips: There is a slide at the entrance of the cave that leads to the bottom of the cave, which costs fifty yuan. The temperature inside the cave is low in summer, so it is advisable to bring a light jacket. The walking intensity inside the cave is relatively high, and it is not recommended for older people to visit. Dining near the scenic area can only choose farmhouses. To reach the real entrance of Baqi Cave, you have to climb up the mountain from the ticket office, and you will pass by the Lotus Square and a viewing platform on the way. 🌈Transportation: 🚗: Pingyuan Village, Tanzhesi Town, Mentougou District
