Qianbusha is the largest beach on Putuo Mountain, about 1,750 meters long, located on the eastern coast of Putuo Mountain.
The sand is wide and flat, with soft and fine sand. At the north end, there is a huge rock rooted in the sand, which emerges when the water recedes.
Currently, Qianbusha has developed a bathing beach and a marine entertainment center.
Chaoyang Cave at the junction of Baibusha and Qianbusha is the best place to watch the sunrise on Putuo Mountain.

A relatively large beach located in the central and western part of Putuo Mountain. It is usually passed by by car. It is quite large and suitable for walking. However, the sea here is not clear enough and is not suitable for swimming.
The beach here is not too big and is probably the best in Zhejiang.
A very ordinary beach, you don't have to go there at all
The sand is fine and it is a great place to escape the summer heat and play.
Qianbusha is very close to Fayu Temple and is also very close to the downhill road of Foding Mountain.
Qianbusha is the largest beach near the sea in Putuo Mountain. It has a wide view and fine sand. If you come here in summer, it is a great place to walk on the waves and catch the sea.
It is said that Chaoyang Cave, where Baibusha and Qianbusha meet, is the best place to watch the sunrise over the sea. If you are staying overnight in Putuo Mountain, you can go there.
The two larger beaches on the eastern coast of Putuo Scenic Area are Baibusha and Qianbusha. Walking up the mountain from Nantianmen Wharf, you'll first pass Baibusha and then Qianbusha. Baibusha has a clear entrance and is smaller, but it's more crowded. Qianbusha is longer, but without a clear entrance, making it harder to find and easy to miss.
It is a relatively long beach next to the Fayu Temple, but I personally feel that it lacks characteristics. It may be because it was cloudy when we went there, so we did not feel its beauty too much.
I went there with my family to fulfill a vow. There were a lot of people at the dock and the water around was too dirty.
We took the bus to Qianbusha again… but thankfully, the beach was pretty empty!! Braving the midday sun, treading on the scorching sand, it's a true love of the sea!! One child couldn't help but throw themselves into the ocean's embrace… Swimsuits didn't matter~ Running joyfully in the waves~~! So what if your pants got soaked? It was still a fun day~ I hope the kids can get out and play every day~~~ Have fun~
The sand is wide and flat, with soft and fine sand. At the north end, there is a huge rock rooted in the sand. When the water recedes, the rock is exposed with the words "Listening to the Tide" inscribed on it. There are stone steps leading up to the Sea View Pavilion. It is a good place to watch the sunrise on Putuo Mountain.
Walking and swimming in the sand: Fayu Temple is actually right next to Huiji Temple, which is quite convenient. But we heard the restaurant owner tell us that Qianbusha was just across the street. Haha, we didn't hesitate. They say Qianbusha is less crowded than Baibusha, and it's true. I just played around in the water, while my dad and I went swimming in the water. We really let loose!
On the way to Puji Temple, I caught a glimpse of the entire Qianbusha. It was so beautiful that I didn’t want to leave, so I went out again under the scorching sun to take a panoramic photo.
Qianbusha and Fayu Temple are very close, and we found it by listening to the sound of the waves! The sand here is very fine and soft to step on. Running on the beach, the waves wet the hem of my skirt. Some decisions and moods are ready to be released.
Friends who want to swim can bring their equipment to Qianbusha Beach, where the scenery is beautiful.
Qianbusha is very close to Fayu Temple, only a 5-minute walk away. The beach is very large and there are few people. Ma Xinxin had a lot of fun and didn't leave until dark.
The exit of Fayu Temple leads to Qianbu Beach. Qianbu Beach boasts a long, wide coastline. It was 3 p.m., the sun was glaring, and the crowds were sparse. The sand was fine, clean, shimmering golden, and soft to the touch. I was amused by the waves, rising and falling. My shoes were soaked, so I simply took them off, rolled up my pants, and headed for the sea barefoot.
The beach is fine and soft, it should be nice to come here in summer, but be sure to wear sunscreen.
The beach is wide, free, and has pleasant scenery, but swimming is not allowed. You can catch small crabs. This is the largest beach in Tuoshan, more famous than Baibusha, not far from Fayu Temple and Foding Mountain.
It's very big. If you go there in March, it will be very windy. If the weather is hot, it's not bad.
Located on the east coast of Putuo Mountain, this 1,750-meter-long beach is the largest in Putuo Mountain. Its broad, flat surface is soft and fine. At its northern end, a huge rock stands embedded in the sand. When the water recedes, the rock reveals the words "Listen to the Tide." Stone steps lead up to the Seaview Pavilion. It's a great place to watch the sunrise on Putuo Mountain.
There were few people when I went there, and I had a lot of fun playing on the beach.
Putuoshan's largest beach. When I visited, I saw it at dusk and dawn, when it was at its most beautiful. The sunset, the sunrise, the beach, the tide, the sea breeze—everything was perfect.
It's free, not bad, no one is watching, please be safe
Putuo Mountain has beautiful scenery and is well managed.
Overall it's good, but when I went there, there was a lot of garbage on the beach, mostly bamboo poles, bamboo sticks, plastic shells, etc. The sea water is yellowish, I don't know why, the environment has been very bad recently, and there are many small sea worms that will bite people. If you are bitten, you should soak in clean sea water to disinfect, and it will be fine in a while... Overall it's good, I hope I won't be too disappointed next time I come...😔😔
It’s nice to watch the sunrise and sunset in the evening and morning
The sunset at Qianbusha is amazing. You can see Luojia Mountain from afar, enjoy the sand and listen to the tide. It is a beautiful place.
Qianbusha is the largest beach in Putuo Mountain, connected to Baibusha in the south. Because it is farther away from Puji Temple and not developed into a bathing beach like Baibusha, it is not very popular. The sand here is finer than Baibusha.
Further north of Chaoyang Cave is Qianbusha, a sandy beach ideal for strolling. Does it look familiar? Do you remember which story or episode in Journey to the West it appears in?
Qianbusha is not far from Fayu Temple and is much wider than Baibusha. Because it is on the east side of the island, it has an excellent view of the sunrise in the morning.
I went there in the summer, and it was still relatively cool in the morning. I took off my shoes and walked on the beach. There were not many people. I felt very relaxed and comfortable like on vacation, and the waves were surging.
On the eastern coast of Putuo Mountain, starting from the north of Jibaoling in the south and ending at Wanghai Pavilion in the northeast, a mountain road called "Yutang Street" runs along the east side of Putuo Mountain. Qianbusha, running along the coast to the right, is located there, while Baibusha, passing Chaoyang Gate in the south, is located there. Qianbusha gets its name from its length of nearly a thousand steps.
So beautiful, the sand is so fine~
^_^ An unexpected surprise
Qianbusha is a larger beach than Baibusha. Putuo Mountain is a famous mountain on the sea, located on an island. Therefore, the beach is naturally a more distinctive place in Putuo Mountain. In the evening, many people walk and play in the water here.
Compared with Baibusha, the view here is wider, the sand is finer, and the beach is larger. It is a very good beach, suitable for posing and taking photos.
Very clean, with nice people, you can have fun at the beach
I arrived at Putuo Mountain the day before Qingming Festival. Qianbusha is located on the east coast of Putuo Mountain. It's not crowded. The sand is very fine, perfect for walking and aerial photography.
Qianbusha has fewer tourists than Baibusha. If you have enough time, you can go there. The most important thing is that it is very quiet there.
The quality of the B&B near Qianbusha was much higher than expected. The off-season price was very suitable. Take a stroll to Qianbusha and listen to the sound of the sea.
Qianbusha is larger than Baibusha, but there are fewer people, it is very spacious, and the scenery is also good.
The blue sky, white clouds, beach, and waves are so beautiful that you can’t see enough and can’t take enough photos.
Blowing the sea breeze and looking out at the sea is a unique experience
When the weather is good, the sea water is still blue, but it becomes very turbid when it is cloudy.
The East China Sea is very yellow. It was not a sunny day when I went there, so the scenery was average.
Hengdian Film and Television City is quite large, with many scenic spots such as Qingming Shanghe Tu, Qin Palace, Ming and Qing Palaces, Guangzhou Street and Hong Kong Street.
The scenery is nice and unique, but it's quite tiring for a day.
Suitable for leisure travel, fresh air, beautiful environment, I will go there again in the future! Recommended~~~
The winter sea is less noisy and more quiet, light and comfortable.
The beach is very fine and empty during the off-season. It is very close to Fayu Temple.
The sand at Qianbusha is quite comfortable, and the coastline is a bit long. It would be even better if there was sunshine. After playing in the Qianbusha scenic area, there are outdoor faucets for washing up, and direct drinking water is also provided.
Also known as Qianbusha, it is located on the eastern coast of Putuo Mountain, stretching from the north of Jibaoling in the south to Wanghaiting in the northeast. A mountain road on the east side of Putuo Mountain, called Yutang Street, runs along the coast to the right of the street, and to the south, past Chaoyang Gate, is Baibusha. Qianbusha gets its name from its length of nearly a thousand steps.
Coming down from Fayu Temple on Putuo Mountain, you can walk to Qianbusha, where you can enjoy a wide view, clear water and few people.
The sea water is much clearer than that of Nantian and you can catch crabs there.
Suddenly, the 800-li Quicksand River appeared before my eyes. How could I possibly cross it? [Dazed] I wanted to wait online for advice, but I guess most people would tell me to fly across it. [Arrogant] Then I'll grant your wish. [Chuckling] The water is very cold, very cold, very cold. It's not a good time to play in the water. The wet beach is so hard it rubs my feet, and the dry beach is so soft it's hard to walk fast, so I run. A flash of purple lightning streaked past. It was so comfortable to step onto the flower-filled trail again. Farewell to Qianbusha, and head straight for the Fanyin Scenic Area.
There are few people in Qianbusha, the road is very quiet and the scenery is beautiful
Opposite Fayu Temple, the beach is not very beautiful and not too crowded.
The scenery is nice, but it rains every time I pass by, so I don't have a good time.
The first time I went there, there were fewer people and the waves were bigger, but the water was clearer than I'd imagined. It was the cleanest sea I've ever been to, except for Sanya. However, the next two times I went, it wasn't as good as the first time. Locals attributed it to water pollution caused by the large-scale construction in the surrounding area.
It's a great place with beautiful sunshine and beaches.
The sand is very unique, with layers upon layers, and there are some games about sand!
I absolutely love Qianbusha! Its clean, tidy beach and turquoise waters captivate visitors, captivated by the vastness of the sea and the feeling of the beach, and they find themselves spending hours there. Taking off your shoes and darting between the sand and the waves is the essence of the fun of the beach! At the end of Qianbusha, there's a small pavilion and some reefs, making it a photo-worthy spot, a place everyone takes photos! From the pavilion, you can see the entire landscape. Qianbusha is gorgeous and captivating during the day, but it's also beautiful at night. I was lucky enough to catch a sunrise this morning; although the sun took its time to emerge, I still managed to witness my first sunrise at sea. Qianbusha, a first for me.
There is a small beach at the foot of Putuo Mountain. It is very comfortable to walk on the beach with the wind blowing.
I feel that in terms of scenery, there is no difference between it and Baibusha, but there are very few people in Qianbusha, and the sea water is not very clean, it is a bit long, and there are many broken shells on the beach. Basically, you can say that you don’t need to go there. In terms of facilities and people, Baibusha is better.
At the end of Qianbusha, there is a stone pavilion. It feels a bit desolate, but the surrounding scenery is beautiful, and you can walk down the stairs to go sea fishing.
The weather was great, sunny and sandy, but it was a bit cold during the Spring Festival.
There are far fewer people in Qianbusha than in Baibusha. The sand is very soft and the sea breeze is very comfortable in the summer, especially when you are tired of visiting other places and then relax on the beach, you will feel so comfortable that you don’t want to leave. It is worth a visit!
Qianbusha is indeed a very small beach. I came here because of its reputation. The sand is not fine enough and the sea is not blue enough. It is not good for enjoying the scenery, but it is enough for children to play with water and build sand castles.
The beach feels average, which may be related to the weather.
Qianbusha Beach is far less scenic than Baibusha Beach. While it's longer than 1,000 steps, the sand is soft, litter-free, and relatively clean. Located near the French Temple and Radisson Manor, it's under renovation, and the northern exit is now fenced off. Crossing the beach requires walking through a small forest, making it easy to get lost without navigation. This beach lacks prominent rocks and a sunrise viewing pavilion like Baibusha Beach, resulting in a more limited view. If you're looking to witness or photograph the sunrise, this isn't the best option; it's better to head to Baibusha Beach.
The beach is not big, but it is the largest beach on the island. The sand is golden. After the tide goes out, although there is still mud in the sand, you can still go down and play.
On the eastern coast of Putuo Mountain, starting from the north of Jibaoling in the south and ending at Wanghai Pavilion in the northeast, a mountain road called "Yutang Street" runs along the east side of Putuo Mountain. Qianbusha, running along the coast to the right, is located there, while Baibusha, passing Chaoyang Gate in the south, is located there. Qianbusha gets its name from its length of nearly a thousand steps.
I have been to Putuo Mountain three times and the sand is very fine.
I went there for many years in a row...
A nice beach, Baibusha and Qianbusha, the entrance fee is not charged separately, you can go there by buying a big ticket
Just another ordinary beach...just so-so
