Jintai Xizhao, Sunset viewpoint in Chaoyang District, Beijing, China.

The outdoor location features an elevated platform offering views of the Beijing skyline against the orange and red colors of sunset.

During the Qianlong Emperor period in the 18th century, a stone tablet inscribed with 'Jintai Xizhao' was placed at this location.

The site represents one of the Eight Great Sights of Yanjing, carrying forward the traditional Chinese appreciation of natural phenomena.

The area connects to multiple transport options, including Line 10 of Beijing Subway at Jintai Xizhao Station and several bus routes.

A stone tablet discovered in 2002 during construction resolved the centuries-old debate about the exact location of this historical site.
