Begin your journey at Tanzhe Temple, the oldest temple in the Beijing area. Built in the Jin Dynasty, this vast temple complex retains its Ming and Qing dynasty style, making it the largest ancient temple complex in the suburbs of Beijing. Stroll through the famous Ten Scenic Spots of Tanzhe, including Red Leaves on the Plain, Nine Dragons Playing with a Pearl, Thousand Peaks Surrounded by Greenery, and Ten Thousand Valleys Piled with Clouds.
Next, visit Biyun Temple, a well-preserved garden-style temple complex located on the north side of Xiangshan Park. Founded in the Yuan Dynasty and expanded during the Ming and Qing Dynasties, this temple is built along the mountainside, with halls rising in tiers along the mountainside, creating a unique layout formed by over three hundred steps. Admire the pair of stone lions and the two guardian deities (Hum and Ha) standing before the main gate, the clay sculptures inside the halls, and the murals on the walls of the Maitreya Buddha hall—all considered artistic gems of the Ming Dynasty.
