Pingdingshan Forest Park

平顶山

A mountain park south of Benxi city. From the summit, you can overlook the Taizi River and the whole mountain city, and the hilltop still holds a cluster of bunkers from the Japanese occupation period.

Pingdingshan lies south of Benxi city and takes its name from its flat summit. It is a favorite spot for residents to hike and enjoy city views. You can climb by trail or along a winding road, and from the summit observation deck you can see the Taizi River winding through the city, which is surrounded by mountains. The night view is also excellent. The hill has a group of bunkers built during the Japanese occupation period, which are historical remnants of modern history. The park is free to enter. The climb takes about 1–1.5 hours, and the views are even better in autumn when the forest changes color.
