Wensu Grand Canyon - China Travel

introduce

Wensu Grand Canyon used to be the only place to pass through the Muzhat Ancient Road, an ancient post road in the north and south Tianshan Mountains. The locals call it "Kuduluk Grand Canyon", which means "thrilling and mysterious" in Uighur. The canyon is located in Wensu County, Aksu City, about 30 kilometers away from National Highway 314, with a total area of 200 square kilometers.

Wensu Grand Canyon is the most beautiful Danxia geological wonder in western China and the largest rock salt karst geological wonder in China. Wensu Grand Canyon has the rare ancient rock-salt geological scenery in China, the peculiar Yadan geological landscape in western China, and the only giant karst erosion geological secret in China. It can be called the "living museum of geological evolution history" in Xinjiang. Entering the scenic spot is like entering a beautiful and majestic natural gallery. The distribution of rock formations on the mountain wall in the canyon is clear, and the folds and curved lines formed by extrusion are very clear. The fractured rocks are sandwiched in the rock formations on the mountain wall. Strange, jagged and weird, strong colors, various poses and with different expressions, colorful strange landscapes.

In the northwest of the Grand Canyon, you can see the famous Xuefeng Tuomur Peak, in the west you can reach Wensu Shenmu Garden, in the east, you can see the famous Shate Old Road and the Kucha Cultural Tourism Area, and in the south, you can see the Taklamakan Desert.

There is nothing in the surrounding facilities, no place to eat, and few tourists. The scenery is average. It's not worth the hundreds of kilometers to see it.

It’s the second time I’ve come here to play, and I feel a little less scenic than when I came in 2018, but it doesn’t affect its magnificence at all. The magical quicksand creek inside sinks into the bottom of the sand as it flows.

The Grand Canyon is very worth visiting. Don't miss it. It is pet-friendly and can be entered by car. The road conditions are basically normal. If you take the scenic area shuttle bus, it will stop at three to four points, and the trains will start in turn, and they will drive when they are full.

King of the canyon, well-deserved reputation! Majestic atmosphere, magical and spectacular. The four-wheel drive off-road vehicle can be driven by itself. In front of nature, people and vehicles are so tiny. Appreciate nature, respect nature, and love the great rivers and mountains of the motherland!
