Liping National Forest Park
黎坪国家森林公园
A national forest park in the Micang Mountains of Nanzheng, famous for the Zhonghua Dragon Mountain stone forest, the Xiliu River waterfalls and autumn foliage.
Liping sits in the heart of the Micang Mountains in southern Nanzheng District and has high forest cover. The scenic area is divided into zones including Dragon Mountain, Xiliu River and Primeval Forest. Highlights include the Zhonghua Dragon Mountain karst stone forest, the multicoloured waterfall cascades and alpine meadows. Summers are cool, and in autumn the hillsides turn red. Sightseeing shuttles link the zones, and the hiking trails are long, so set aside a full day. Transport: about 2 hours' drive from Hanzhong city centre, with direct buses in peak season. Mountain weather changes quickly, so bring a jacket and watch your footing on slippery surfaces.
Opening hours
