Shengshui Palace

圣水宫

A Taoist site in the mountains northeast of Rushan, with deep forests and steep peaks, and one of the early cultivation sites of the Quanzhen school.

Shengshui Palace lies in the area of Shengshui Rock in Fengjia Town, Rushan City. Legend holds that it was a place where Quanzhen Taoist adepts cultivated their practice during the Jin and Yuan dynasties. Today it has reconstructed halls such as the Yuxu Temple, along with stone carvings. The scenic area is surrounded by mountains and dense woods, with hiking trails leading to caves and lookout points. It is cool in summer and is known as a natural oxygen bar. It is about a 40-minute drive from Rushan city centre; allow 2–3 hours. Admission follows the official announcement. The mountain paths are steep, so wear sports shoes.
