Cloud Gate Mountain Birthday Celebration

Cloud Gate Mountain is one of the famous scenic spots in Qingzhou, located not far from the southern suburbs of Qingzhou city. However, there is no direct public transportation to the site. Visitors can take a bus to the nearby Yunhe Village and then walk approximately 2.2 kilometers to reach the mountain.

Cloud Gate Mountain is not very tall, with its main peak, Dayun Summit, standing at an elevation of only 421 meters. The stone steps leading up the mountain are not particularly steep, making it an easy and pleasant climb. The stone niches, Buddha statues, and cliff carvings on the mountain are worth a look. Among them, the massive stone-carved character "寿" (longevity) stands 7.5 meters tall. Standing beneath it, one truly feels "as small as an inch," emphasizing the insignificance of human size.

The observation pavilions on both sides of the summit offer excellent views. Under the backdrop of blue skies and white clouds, the scenery in all directions is breathtaking.

After descending the mountain, visitors need to walk approximately 2.2 kilometers back to Yunhe Village to catch a bus returning to the vicinity of Qingzhou Ancient City.
