Brief information on Qianling Park  

Qianling Park, situated at the northwest of Guiyang city, is only 1.5 km from the downtown area. It is one of the rare large urban parks in China. The park was named after Qianling Mountain, which is the No.1 Mountain in Guizhou.

Qianling Park is well known for its bright mountain, beautiful water, quiet forest and ancient temple. Here you can enjoy numerous charming attractions, such as old trees spreading their shade, the Lake rippling in the breeze, the Nine-winds Path snaking up the mountain and fish swimming in the Seven-star Lotus Pond.

Besides these attractions, there are many human landscapes and historic sites in the park. On the Nine-wind Path, the Chinese character “tiger” was engraved in 1860 by Zhao Dechang, a calligraphy master in Qing Dynasty. The stone inscription of about 6.2 meters high and 3.7 meters wide sufficiently illustrates the extensive and profound nature of Chinese calligraphy. During the Japanese Invasion, the two famous patriotic generals, Zhang Xueliang and Yang Hucheng, had been imprisoned in the “Shuiyue Nunnery” of the park which has been preserved for display to all travelers.

Another highlight here is the Wild Macaque Park with more than 500 wild macaques. You can enjoy the lively expressions and behaviors of the wild macaques.
