Longqingxia (national 4A level Tourist attractions )。 Longqing Gorge is a combination of the charm of the southern landscape and the strength of the northern landscape. It is known as the "Little Lijiang River" in Beijing because of its winding canyons, green rivers, steep cliffs on both banks, and dense karst caves, stalagmites, and stone columns. In spring and summer, people come here to play in the water and go hiking; In winter, here is a sea of ice lanterns. There is a reinforced concrete dam at the Gukou of Longqingxia, which is a huge reservoir. When the water is full, it flows out from the side hole spillway and flies down, forming a spectacular waterfall. The valley has beautiful scenery. The cliffs are covered with unique limestone. According to their shapes, they are named Zhenshan Tathagata, Shixiong Tiaoyan, Jiulian Cave, Jiguan Mountain, Jingang Mountain, Horseshoe Pond, Jiangjun Rock, etc.
Longqing Gorge not only has beautiful natural scenery, but also has matching amusement facilities. Stepping into the mouth of the canyon, a 258 meter long dragon hung from its head to its tail on the cliff, with its whiskers and claws flying. This is actually the first dragon elevator in Asia. Take the elevator to directly reach the cruise ship dock near Baihua Cave. The scenic spot also has a thrilling Biyi Slideway, which can slide from Baihua Cave to Cuidao Island in the middle of the lake at high speed. You can take the cableway near Baihua Cave to the Immortal Temple in the middle of the mountain. There is no need to worry about it after a long time of travel. There are all kinds of food, accommodation and travel in the scenic spot. When you are tired of playing, you can sit in the farmhouse in the scenic spot and taste the local specialties such as roast whole sheep, rainbow trout, etc. If you haven't had enough fun in one day, you can still stay in the scenic spot and continue your happy journey the next day.

Tourist Evaluation of Longqing Gorge Scenic Area ：
@ Lincoln ken : You can go to Longqing Gorge by boat. There is a small waterfall when you go by boat. You can go to the Vajra Temple to pray for blessings, and occasionally you meet someone riding a bicycle on a steel wire in the Gorge. It's really wonderful to have a barbecue after watching the scenery
@ Kevin Rudd : It's worth visiting. After all, it's not easy to find a place with mountains and water in the north. There is a large reservoir. There are sightseeing boats. They drive slowly on the lake to enjoy the green mountains and waters on both sides. (I have been to Guilin, which is incomparable, but it is a good summer resort in Beijing.)
@ Hot revision of science and technology : We passed here when we came back from Bashang Grassland. We have heard about the reputation of Longqing Gorge for a long time. As expected, the scenery in the scenic spot was very pleasant. We took a cruise ship and listened to the explanation. I also took a cableway to the top of the mountain, and stood on the top to enjoy the beautiful scenery, which was very beautiful. It is a good scenic spot worth recommending.
