Shentang Valley located in Yanqi Town of Huairou District. Route: Go along the Huaifeng (Huairou to Fengning) Road, and turn left at the Yanqi Roundabout. It is a natural scenic spot including mountains, waters, ancient Great Wall and folk customs. It was opened to tourists since June 1993. Shentang Valley was originally named as Sparrow-hawk Valley. It was said that an old rhizotomist who passed here built a cottage and lived here after finding that there were full of medicinal herbs. He picked herbs every day and worked as a doctor for local people. Later the old man became a celestial being, so people changed the name of the valley to Shentang (which means celestial beings' hall).
