Tiangong Mountain
天宫山
A Buddhist mountain in northern Xinluo District, with a temple on the summit and forest trails, where Longyan residents hike and worship on weekends.
Tiangong Mountain lies in the Yanshi Town area of northern Xinluo District, at an elevation of about 1,400 m. It is one of western Fujian’s Buddhist mountains, and temples including Tiangong Temple stand on the summit. Dense forest covers the mountain, with waterfalls and streams, and it stays cool in summer. Visitors can drive to the parking area halfway up and then walk to the top, or hike along the trails. It takes about 1 hour by car from central Longyan. The mountain roads are winding, so take care in rain.
