Longqingxia is located in Yanqing County, Beijing, 85 kilometers away from the downtown area of Beijing. It is also called "Nine Songs of the Ancient City" and is known as "Little Lijiang River beyond the Great Wall". Longqingxia Gukou Ancient Town Village is said to be the garden palace of Xiao Taihou in Liao Dynasty. It was a tourist attraction in Ming and Qing dynasties, and now it is the ancient city reservoir. The ancient city river originates from the east of Haituo Mountain, and there are many springs on both sides of the river to replenish water. This river flows all the year round. On both sides of the cliff in Kisnue, there are some strange peaks and rocks, such as Zhenshan Tathagata, Shixiong Tiaoyan, Jiulian Cave, Jiguan Mountain, Mount Kumgang, Matitan, Jiangjun Rock, and the ruins of the empty city, which can be called "a must beyond the Great Wall". It has both the grandeur beyond the Great Wall and the beauty of the south of the Yangtze River, which can be compared with the Lijiang River and the Three Gorges of the Yangtze River in Guilin. It is one of the sixteen scenic spots in Beijing.

Longqingxia was named after Emperor Yuan Renzong, who was born in Xiangshuiyuan Village nearby. After he ascended the throne, he was named as Gashan Longqingzhou. There is an ancient city village at the mouth of Longqingxia Gorge. In Ming and Qing Dynasties, it was called Garden Tun, which was said to be the garden palace of Xiao Taihou in Liao Dynasty. There is an ancient city site in the northeast corner of the village, which is the former site of Yuyi County in the early Han Dynasty. Therefore, Xiang Yan used to call this place the ancient city. The ancient city river in the canyon dammed at 1980 to form the ancient city reservoir, forming a green water surface. Visitors can take the Longteng elevator to enjoy the 72-meter-high reservoir and dam waterfall, and then take a boat tour of Longqing Gorge.

Longqingxia has Badaling Great Wall in the south, Songshan Forest Park in the northwest and Haituo Mountain in the west.
