The tourist attractions along the Fengsha Railway are relatively famous.

Fengsha Railway was built from 1952 to 1955. After the Beijing-Zhangjiakou Railway, it is an important passage from Beijing to Shacheng, Zhangjiakou, Datong, the important towns in northwest Hebei, and to the northwest of the motherland. The southeast of the Fengsha Railway is connected to the Jingshan, Beijing-Guangzhou, Beijing-Qinzhou and other main lines through the Beijing Railway Hub, and the northwest is merged into the Beijing-Baotou Railway from Shacheng to the double track. The entire line starts from the west of Beijing and goes north along the bank of Yongding River, winding through high mountains and deep valleys, surrounded by mountains and rivers, with twists and turns, dense tunnels and numerous bridges. The No. 7 Bridge in the middle section of the line is like a rainbow flying across the steep mountains of Jundu Mountains; Guanting Reservoir, the largest reservoir in western Beijing, has a unique scenery. In 1972, the second line of the Fengsha Railway was opened and a double line was built. In 1984, the entire line was electrified and equipped with advanced line equipment, replacing the old Beijing-Zhangjiakou Railway and becoming one of the busiest railway sections.

The Fengsha Railway Martyrs Monument stands in front of the first tunnel where the Fengsha Line enters the mountain, next to an inconspicuous farmyard in Liuliqu Village. The inscription records the construction process of the Fengsha Railway and the heroic The moving story of the heroic sacrifice of railway soldiers in the process of fighting against harsh natural conditions such as floods, sandstorms, rockfalls, and landslides. On the 104-kilometer railway, 108 martyrs, who will go down in history forever, listen to the shuttle of the train day and night. As today's electric trains travel through the beautiful Yongding River Gorge, travelers may want to remember them.
