Luliang Colored Sand Forest, together with Lunan Stone Forest and Yuanmou Earth Forest, are called "Three Forests of Yunnan", but it is not as famous as Lunan Stone Forest, and there are relatively few tourists, so it is a place where you can enjoy the scenery quietly.
The colorful sand forest in Luliang is formed by weathering of sandstone containing minerals. If you look carefully, you will find that the sand forest changes in different colors with the sunlight and light. There are several colors such as red, white, yellow, gray, and black. The effect is infinitely variable. Especially in the evening, the layering of the sand forest under the setting sun is more obvious. After watching the sand forest, you can go to the sand sculpture area, where a number of sand sculpture works left over from the international sand sculpture competition were displayed. The contents include Snow White, The Old Man and the Sea, The Tale of Genji, How Steel is Tempered...
