The Upper Qing Palace, also known as the "Upper Palace", was first built in the Song Dynasty. The towering ginkgo tree in front of the gate is the thickest among the ginkgo trees in Laoshan Mountain.

The palace is surrounded by mountains on all sides, with clear waters and beautiful scenery, and an extremely secluded environment. The ginkgo trees and peonies in front of the palace are all hundreds of years old.

In the Yuan Dynasty, the Taoist Qiu Chuji lived here and also left inscriptions. Among them, one piece of lyrics to the tune of "Qing Yu An" and ten seven-character quatrains are the most famous. The Holy Water Spring flows out from under the Turtle Mountain Stone. It is sweet, clear and clean, and is one of the famous springs in Laoshan Mountain.

The main hall of the Upper Qing Palace is the Jade Emperor Hall, where the Jade Emperor is enshrined. The Eastern Side Hall enshrines the three true gods of the "Three Purities". The Western Side Hall enshrines the "Seven True Ones of the North", that is, the seven disciples of Wang Chongyang.
