Anshan is China’s renowned "Steel Capital". Many people only know Anshan Iron and Steel Group (Angang) rather than the city of Anshan itself, which speaks volumes about Angang’s immense influence. The towering blast furnaces and factory buildings of Angang form a distinctive cityscape of Anshan. Moreover, urban industrial tourism centered around Angang has gained great popularity recently and is now in its prime travel season.

Qianshan Mountain lies 20 kilometers to the southeast of downtown Anshan. Reputed as "the No.1 Mountain in Northeast China", it is a famous scenic spot in central Liaoning. Fei Xiaotong once praised it with the line: "Huangshan Mountain stands in the south, Qianshan Mountain rises in the north." In spring, azaleas and pear blossoms bloom profusely on Qianshan; in summer, lilies blossom alongside gurgling mountain springs. Autumn brings red foliage covering the mountains and the sweet fragrance of Nanguo pears drifting everywhere. Winter blankets green pines with heavy snow, and the whole mountain wrapped in silver presents an exceptionally enchanting sight. Qianshan is a wonderful tourist destination all year round.

Located 17 kilometers southeast of urban Anshan, Liaoning Province, Qianshan Mountain is a branch of the Changbai Mountain Range. It gets its name, which literally means "Thousand Mountains", from its nearly one thousand peaks, and is known as the "Pearl of Northeast China".

Qianshan’s four core landscapes consist of grotesque peaks, pine trees growing on rocky cliffs, ancient temples and pear blossoms. Geographically, it is divided into four scenic zones: Northern, Central, Southern and Western, containing 20 sub-scenic areas and 228 scenic spots scattered across multiple mountain valleys. Its most famous sites include Immortal Platform, the ideal spot to watch the sunrise, and the extraordinary Qianshan Maitreya Giant Buddha.

Boasting exquisite scenery that varies dramatically with each season, Qianshan is a scenic resort integrating ancient temples and mountain gardens within a single mountain range.

Immortal Platform is Qianshan’s highest peak, home to numerous time-honored historic relics. Five major Buddhist temples and three Taoist temples—Wuliangguan, Zhonghui Temple, Da’an Temple and Xiangyan Temple—are all situated within this scenic zone.

The Qianshan Maitreya Giant Buddha is a natural sitting Maitreya Buddha sculpted entirely from a single mountain massif. The Buddha faces east toward the west, with its left hand spread open and resting naturally on its knee, while its right hand clenched into a fist presses against its right thigh. A string of prayer beads is faintly visible hanging on its chest, and a natural cave on its torso forms the Buddha’s navel. Research dates its formation back roughly 100 million years. This world wonder ranks alongside the Leshan Giant Buddha and the Bronze Buddha of Hong Kong as one of China’s three great giant Buddhas.

Tanggangzi Hot Springs is one of China’s time-honored famous hot springs. Using hot spring water for physical therapy and disease prevention boasts a history of three to four thousand years in China. Since the Ming and Qing dynasties, buildings and bathing facilities have been built here, drawing an endless stream of visitors seeking hot spring treatments. In modern history, Tsarist Russia, northeastern warlords and Japanese invaders seized the hot springs one after another, constructing mansions and villas here for them to "cleanse their minds and prolong life". After 1945, the hot spring resort suffered severe damage under the Kuomintang rule. Today, Tanggangzi Hot Springs has been developed into a nationally renowned physical therapy and rehabilitation center. Admission Ticket: 40 RMB
