Some people always envy the scenery of foreign countries, but they don’t know that there are many beautiful scenery in China that amaze foreigners. For example, the Maling River Grand Canyon, located 6 kilometers northeast of Xingyi City in Qianxinan, Guizhou, is like the roaring waterfalls of thousands of horses. The huge calcified rocks and many little-known water curtain caves are all amazing.
The Maling River Canyon is actually a deep fissure in the orogenic movement. The canyon is 74.8 kilometers long, 50-150 meters wide, and 120-280 meters deep. It looks like a ground fissure from top to bottom. , from the bottom to the top is a line of gutter, known as "a beautiful scar on the earth".
For the convenience of tourists, a sightseeing elevator is installed in the scenic spot. It costs 40 yuan to take the elevator up and down the valley. The elevator is 71 meters high, which is equivalent to the height of a 24-story building. However, if you don't have much luggage or you usually exercise more, you can choose to go down the plank road next to it, which is more than 20 minutes away.
Going down to the bottom of the valley, I felt much cooler immediately. It really is a leisurely summer resort, and it is interesting to look up at the bottom of the valley, and you can see that the sky is blocked by the cliffs on both sides, and you can only see the "line" of the sky. Sitting in a well and watching the sky” feeling.
Walking along the plank road in the canyon, one side of the road is a stone wall, and the other side is a river with a drop of tens of meters.
Along the way, the canyons are deep and secluded, and the plank road climbs the cliffs, which are zigzag and fascinating. Traveling along the road is like entering a painting.
The river water in the karst area contains a lot of calcium carbonate, and carbon dioxide is released rapidly during the fall, which attaches the calcium carbonate to the cliff. Over time, large-scale and majestic calcified waterfalls have been bred on the two walls of the canyon. The calcium carbonate hanging on the wall is a spectacle here.
Standing at the bottom of the valley, the waterfall falls from the sky, like a white streamer, scattered from the air, misty, small water droplets flutter with the wind, and fall on the body from time to time.
In addition to rich natural landscapes, the Maling River Canyon Scenic Area is also very rich in other places of interest. The canyon has ancient temples, ancient bridges, ancient battlefields, ancient post roads and other cultural landscapes, full of ancient and wild tastes.
And the most shocking thing is the group of ten thousand horses galloping waterfalls, listen to its sound before seeing its shape, and hear the sound from a distance like thunder and roar, like ten thousand horses galloping, the waterfalls flow straight down, slapping on the stones The pearls splashed everywhere, the water vapor was misty, and it had the momentum of "flying down three thousand feet, and it is suspected that the Milky Way falls nine days".
"Clouds and stones are even more strange, and strange paintings are incomparable. Only poetry can be written about strangeness, and poetry is in the empty mountains." The majesty, strangeness, danger and beauty of the Grand Canyon make people feel like they are in a fairyland, and they will never forget to return.
