The Liukeng Inclined Cableway Witnesses the Gold Mining History of Jinguashi

Behind the Quanjitang parking lot in Ruifang Jinguashi, there is a ruin of a collapsed red brick house. Next to this ruin, you can overlook the ruins of the Thirteen Levels Selection Plant and the Yin-Yang Sea. Hidden in this steep, overgrown hillside is the 'Liukeng Inclined Cableway,' a significant historical witness to the gold mining era of Jinguashi. The mining office outside the Liukeng entrance is now a deserted red brick building, with a desolate and empty feeling of ruins. However, it has become a popular spot for influencers to take photos. Posing on the red brick ruins with the Yin-Yang Sea and the Northeast Coast as a backdrop, it seems to tell the story of Jinguashi's once-prosperous gold mining days and the changes over the years. After taking photos, I went to the mountain secret food spot - About Cafe. While enjoying the food, scenes from the movie 'Hill of No Return' depicting a harsh life came to mind, making me feel grateful for my own happiness.
