Shanye Kou Scenic Area is located in Shanye Kou Village, Dawuli Township, west of Qian'an City. The scenic area is home to a variety of geological relics, including ancient gneiss formed during the Archean Eon over two billion years ago, the Great Wall series of conglomerate outcrops and boulders that have collapsed along the joints over billions of years, and the contact line between the Archean Qianxi Group and the Proterozoic Great Wall series, which represents a gap of about one billion years in the strata.
The scenery here is very beautiful, including Mandarin Duck Lake, Jianhu Pavilion, Colorful Valley, Shangxi Pavilion, Sanyou Pavilion, Sleeping Dragon Pine, Dice Stone, Knife Testing Stone, Guanpu Pavilion, and Six-branch God Pine. There is also a performance in the morning and afternoon.
