Hello my friend, buckle up because today I am taking you just outside of Beijing to the Ming
Tomb scenic area. We are taking a scenic road trip through the countryside with the majestic
Tianshuo mountain in the distance. Well, this place is not just a beautiful, it's a home to
the final resting places of 13 emperors from China Ming dynasty. As we explore the ancient tombs
and the surrounding lush landscape, I will take you through the rich history that shaped this
incredible area. Stay with me on this journey and make sure to like and subscribe to my channel
Dingling scenic spot with Ming Tombs. I hope everything goes well because I came to this
first time and this is here. Okay and and then what? Where to go?
All right, so I'm ready to go inside of Ming Tomb scenic area. I got my camera and I got my stake,
my selfie stake, my tripod, my GoPro and now we're going to the ticket area to find some
to get a ticket and also find something to drink. Maybe we can find some shop because I didn't take
anything. So there's a ticket area behind me. Oh, I think I can find, I found something to drink here.
All right, I bought this coffee from here and normally this coffee in central Beijing is
almost like 60 yuan and here on this spot I paid 10 yuan for this. Now we are heading to the
ticket office. So here I am. I'm going to buy the ticket here. Let's find out how much is it.
So it's 40 yuan. I'm gonna pay here.

Okay, so I paid 41 yuan for the ticket.
And here is the ticket.

Situated at the foot of the Tianshou mountain of Changping district, Beijing. So we are in

city proper. Okay. All right. The rest of the introduction you can read here.
Let me make a close-up. All right. So we are entering from this gate.
What it feels like is a place where people can tie their ribbons
for fulfillment of their wishes. The underground palace,
2200 meters away. Do not use mobile phone during thunderstorms. Okay. Thank you very much.
Now we're gonna go up. Climbing time.
Wow. This is such an old tree and it's covered. It's protected with the fence.
And look at this place. It looks like it's carved.
But it's original.
Do not use mobile phone during the thunderstorm.
It's a huge forest kind of stuff. A lot of trees. Here is the entrance for underground palace.
But I don't know how long we need to go downstairs.
There is an entrance or at least no more downstairs.
And it's quite dark. So I need to take off my glasses.
I think these are the pillars from emperor's time. So that's why they are preserved.
Yes. I think that's the tomb. Maybe. People are throwing money.
Let's go to this place.
This is security stuff.
The emperor's throne. So that's a throne for the emperor. And there are big pots or cauldrons.
Wow. What are these things? Are these treasure chests?
We are going to find the introduction for this.
The ventilation. More exhausting.
So I don't know what is this letter. But I will ask and I will mention in the description.
Such a nice feeling.
Look at the view behind me. Amazing feeling. I feel so comfortable and relaxed.
So peaceful and quiet place. I love it. And it's sunny. Not cold at all.
But it is too quiet.
So I'm the only one person here in this area. And here you can see it's all
they're all like trees and they're kind of feeling like a forest.
The weather is quite pleasant today. It's sunny. But still not too cold.
So there is a ticket office for this place. Let's go and find a ticket.
Wow. So many cards. Beautiful. For this I paid 15 yuan. 15 RMB. And here is the map and the
introduction for this park. Silver Mountain Pagoda Forest Scenic Area is located in the
sublime mountains of Yanshou Town, Changping District, Beijing, 35 kilometers from Changping
District in the west and 46 kilometers away from Andingmen in the south. It is a part of the
National Scenic Spot Badaling 13th Swamp Scenic Spot and is also the major historical and cultural
site. Now we are in this park and it also has some trekking and climbing. So I'll be here
for a while and explore inside this park. It is also located in the Changping District
but 35 kilometers away from the Changping
Sun Facing Cave. Ancient Buddhist rock.
Luo Luo Cave and Pagoda Cluster. So let's go here first.
Wow there's the climbing steps. So we have to go through the steps.
It's going to be so high and the steps are quite big.
Well I'm climbing the steps but it's too high. I already came that far.
Can you see that? But still goes that high. I don't know where. There's no end. Endless steps.
Keep going. Okay go.
So
my mother once told me mountains look beautiful from far away
but as they get closer they create a big trouble.
Look at the sun. I can see the sun rays behind the clouds. Wow that's amazing.
The thing is after the tiredness when you feel when you see something amazing
you forget that you are tired.
