Exploring natural beauty and enjoying my journey to the mountains of the Huairou district is always a great outdoor activity that I really love a lot. And most of the time I travel with my bicycle that allows me to discover some amazing spots on my way to the popular scenic spots which are ignored most of the time or remains underrated. But I am so lucky that I am living near these natural gems and I always found some amazing beauty on my way to every destination which I never expect before I found them. Such an interesting mountain village that I discovered recently in the Huairou mountains in my first travel to that area. The name of the village is 'Gan Jian Yu Cun' in Chinese as I don't knoe the english name which is not used most of the time here in China as they are written in pinyin for daily use cases.
The village is located has shocked me as it is between the mountains where itvis even so dificult yo make roads for proper transportation. Butvit seems that thr village is quite old and traditional one though it remains so silent when I have visited the area. Most of the villages here in China has more depth but this village is just the road side area with very less depth towards the backside due to the adjacent mountains. I have also seen some buildings are aligned with the mountains that shows the age old repalica of a true mountain village.
The village is located at very high altitude and this is tge last residential area in this depth of the mountains as the last bus stops is in this village and the only village road end at the mountains where my destination is located which is a scenic natural area with a Temple in the deeper mountains where I have a great experience which I will share in my future blogs. There is a channel that carries water from the high altitude from the mountains but I saw very low amount of water when I visited the village area. But the canal side is covered with densely green grasses and there some pools to cross the canal to gi the other parts of the village that is divided by the main raod from where I have taken most of my pictures.
The nost scenic views are seen from this middle area of the village with the eye-catching views of the mountains and scenuc green views everywhere. There are some karge open space for some oarking areas, bus parking areas from where I can have the most icinic views of the village and the breathetaking background of the mountains thate really create tye great views. I have stopoed at several location to enjiy the scenic views if the village where the road infront of me became so astonishing with the scenic bending and appearing from the mountains infront of me. Such scenic views are very rare in many mountains village that I have visited in my Beijing life.
One thing that I have niticed that the village was excessively silent than many others I have exolored. I saw very few people on thr road also though there are many resorts and hotels for the tiurists but all of them were very calm and no hustle was noticed in my observation. But I have enjiyed the natural beauty of the village and it realky a great place to live there.
The only thing that is alarming for me that the village is nut safe at all if there is some natural calamities when some cloudburst can damage iit heavily such occurrence has been seen in last July in the Miyun district that caused a total death if 32 people in a single night all on a sudden heavy rain by a cloudburst! But it is a place to enjoy the day with the nature in the lap of nauture free from all the hustle from the city life.
I hope you like my photos of the Beautiful village of Gan Jain Yu Cun in the mountains region of the Huairou district of the Beijing Municiopality, where the natural beauty is in a great form with the village structurers that creates very scenic views. It was an amazing experience to explore such a scenic place like this, with the discovery of natural beauty and see the village beauty together, to enjoy my Beijing life! Furthermore, the favourable weather with comfortable temperatures during the day when I travelled there made me more at ease in the hot summer make it more enjoyable. If you have any queries, let me know in the comments, and I will try my best to answer them.
Thanks a lot for your time and attention. I will catch up with you at the next one.
Wish you a great day!
All of these photos are my own property and they have been shot by me.

The village is beautiful and surrounded by mountains.
Thanks!
There's something about the view of the mountains from the road. It's giving a feeling of anticipation for what lies ahead beyond the curb, or above the mountains.
Indeed, it is like a mystery about the other side of these mountains.
Dear @tanzil2024 !
Hassan!
I guessed that the village of Gan Jain Yu Cun was the villa area of the Chinese upper class!
I thought the residents of the village of Gan Jain Yu Cun were probably the caretakers of the villa!
Did you go to the village of Gan Jain Yu Cun by bike?
I always enjoy your wonderful travels and photos!
Don no batt!
Maybe the area is for upper class, but did not have proper idea. May be they spend their holidays here for enjoyment in the nature.
