It is located in Jilin City urban area and known as “scared ground for nine dragons”. The scenic area, with a history of over 300 years, originally was called Jiulong Mountain (Nine Dragon Mountain) and said to be “the emerging place for dragons”. Emperor Kangxi and Qianlong in the Qing Dynasty ever made a round and climbed the mountain for sight-seeing. The legend of “nine dragon culture” adds more mysteries to the “auspicious place”.

There are groups of temples in the scenic area. So, the area is famous for folk temple fairs. It is said “Qianshan Temple tops Northeast China, and Beishan Temple fair is better than Qianshan”. The Beishan scenic area blends traditional Chinese culture including Buddhism, Taoism, Confucianism and folk culture, integrates human landscapes including temple, pavilion, building, kiosk, and stage, and is a well-known temple and garden scenic area in Northeast China.
