Mentougou Baqi Cave

Baqi Cave is located in Mentougou District, Beijing, only 500 meters away from the famous Tanzhe Temple. Baqi Cave is a deep and ancient cave, famous for its "8" folds and eight wonders, so it is known as "a wonder created by heaven and earth, a magical cave".

The Baqi Cave has three halls and 28 scenic spots along the way, which are completely consistent with the cosmology of the ancient astronomers "Three Huans and Twenty-Eight Constellations". The three caves are "Xiaoyao Hall", "Zhile Hall", and "Yuzhou Hall" respectively. The three halls have their own characteristics. Xiaoyao Hall is magnificent, Zhile Hall is ethereal, and Yuzhou Hall is spacious. The eight wonders of the Baqi Cave are folds "8", flying dragons in the sky, strange dangers, front dragons and back tigers, divine pots, Jigong, Longtan, and China Olympics. Moreover, most of these eight landscapes can be found in Tanzhe Temple outside the cave. Especially the stone pot, which is similar in size to the copper pot in Tanzhe Temple and is very similar. The deep pool at the bottom of the cave is clear and transparent, and the waterway is winding, which also coincides with the name of "Tanzhe Temple". There are also two traditional Chinese characters "China" on the stone wall above the pool, and the patterns on the rocks next to it are smooth, like ancient murals. The temperature in Baqi Cave is kept at 13℃-16℃ all year round. It is warm in winter and cool in summer, with gurgling water all year round, making it suitable for tourists to visit in all seasons.
