Qianling Mountain Park - Guiyang

Qianling Mountain Park is Guiyang’s beloved urban oasis – a place where nature, history, and culture come together. From peaceful temples to playful monkeys, and serene lakes to scenic hiking trails, the park is a refreshing escape from city life while staying right in the heart of it.

Highlights from my trip:

• Hongfu Temple – Perched on the mountain slope, this centuries-old Buddhist temple offers colorful halls, incense-filled courtyards, and stunning city views.
• Qianling Lake – A tranquil spot for boating, relaxing, or simply enjoying reflections of the surrounding greenery.
• Wild Macaques – Hundreds of monkeys roam freely in the park, adding a lively and playful atmosphere (watch your snacks!).

Travel Tips:

✔️ Wear comfortable walking shoes – trails can be steep.
✔️ Morning visits are quieter and cooler.
✔️ Keep belongings secure from curious monkeys.
✔️ Don’t miss panoramic views of Guiyang from the mountain’s upper paths.
