NGC 6716 is an intermediate-age open cluster in Sagittarius. In this paper, we present the new UBV CCD photometry of the stars in the cluster, which is deeper than previous ones. From the color-color diagram and the color-magnitude diagram, we derived a reddening EB- V = 0.17±0.03 and a distance modulus of the cluster, (V - Mv)o = 9.2±0.1. An age of the cluster is estimated as 8 × 107 yrs from the latest isochrone. Luminosity function and mass function of the cluster are derived. The gradient of the mass function of bright stars is a bit steep, Γ = -1.85±0.05, and there is no distinct bump and dip in the mass function.
