A secret hiking spot 1.5 hours' drive from the suburbs of Beijing!

Beijing is never short of interesting places, and here is a small and popular hiking spot in the suburbs of Beijing~ **[Yajishan] is located in Pinggu District, Beijing, 80km from Beijing, and can be reached by car in 1.5 hours.** Known as the "near capital blessed land" and "northern Taishan"! The two peaks on the top of the mountain are like two buns combed on a girl's head, hence the name "Yajishan". The combination of ancient temples and natural scenery gives it a unique historical and cultural charm~ **Tour: The ancient buildings of Yajishan Temple are divided into three parts: 1️⃣Main building at the foot of the mountain: Zixiao Palace, Guanyin Hall 2️⃣Main building on the mountainside: Dongyue Temple, Huixiang Pavilion 3️⃣Main building on the top of the mountain: Bixia Yuanjun Temple, Jade Emperor Pavilion, Bell and Drum Tower and Sanhuang Hall and Mountain Gate between the two tops **Climbing** The altitude is 363 meters, which is similar to the intensity of Beijing Fragrant Hill. The journey is very short and not very tired. The whole journey is stone steps, no cable car, if you are not physically strong, you can choose a shuttle bus, which is time-saving and labor-saving. **About Yajishan:** * A small and popular scenic spot in the suburbs of Beijing, a good place for hiking* 365 steps, symbolizing 365 days a year * The temple stands tall, the golden top of the poppies shines, and when you reach the top of the mountain, it seems to be in the "palace in the sky" under Su Shi's pen, like a dream * There are layers of steps in front of the mountain leading to the top of the mountain, and there are steep cliffs behind the mountain, which are spectacular **Transportation:** Coordinates: Pinggu District, Beijing You can navigate to "Yajishan" by self-driving, and there is a parking lot🅿️ at the foot of the mountain **Cost:** Admission fee: CNY 50/person Admission time: 8:00-16:30 (stop admission at 16:00)

Yaji Mountain

During a cold but bright blue winter day, some friends and I decided to take a hiking trip to Yaji Mountain for some much needed fresh air ans exercise. The climb was a bit difficult on the knees (a loooot of stairs!!) but overall not so bad and definitely well worth the beautiful views from the top. A stunning place and another unforgettable place in China. #gooutside#grouptravel
