Laoshan Yangkou Scenic Area
仰口
The northern scenic area of Mount Lao, where Mitian Cave, Shouzi Peak and Taiping Palace are surrounded by unusual rock formations. It combines mountain and sea scenery with a cable car.
Yangkou Scenic Area lies on the shore of Yangkou Bay in the northeast of Mount Lao, renowned for its strangely shaped peaks and rocks and for the combination of mountain and sea scenery. Its main attractions include Taiping Palace, Shouzi Peak, Mitian Cave and Tianyuan. Mitian Cave is a natural cave formed by piled boulders, which visitors must squeeze and climb through, adding an element of adventure. You can take the Yangkou cable car up the mountain to save energy. The Yangkou Bathing Beach at the foot of the mountain has fine sand and clear water. Admission is about CNY 60 to 80 (excluding the cable car), with opening hours of roughly 07:00 to 17:00. It is about 50 km from downtown. Take a scenic area shuttle or drive, and visit it separately from Taiqing and Beijiushui.
