Jianmen PassLocated in northern Sichuan and some 117 kilometers from Chengdu, Mianyang is centered on Deyang in the south and Guangyuan in the north, forming a tourism route that retraces travel along the Shudao (Sichuan Roads) of the Three Kingdoms Period. Numerous scenic resorts along the route offer visitors a glimpse of local customs and folklore. The main attractions are Jianmen Pass, the Old Plank Road, Huangze Temple, the Thousand-Buddha Cliff, Li Bai Memorial Hall, and Mount Douchui.

A key pass along the old Shudao, Jianmen was known as an impregnable pass. The natural pass is formed by cliffs set among 72 steep peaks along a 100-kilometer stretch of mountains.
