The most beautiful canyon in the world: Luoyang Longtan
Longtan Grand Canyon, located in the north of Xin 'an County, Luoyang City, Henan Province, is a national 5A-level scenic spot and the core scenic spot of Luoyang Daimei Mountain World Geopark. In the canyon, Guan Xia faces each other, ponds, waterfalls and pearls are connected, Wan Ren stands on the wall, and the canyon is beautiful. After/kloc-0.2 billion years of geological deposition and 2.6 million years of water cutting erosion, the wonders of high gorge, urn valley, landslide and ground fissure have been formed, which is a must in the world. The evaluation experts of the United Nations World Geopark praised it as "the most beautiful canyon in the world"; CNN, an internationally influential American cable news network, rated it as one of the 40 most beautiful scenic spots in China. ?
Longtan Grand Canyon is a U-shaped canyon formed by flowing water cutting purple sandstone, with a total length of12km. Seen from the plan, it is like a dragon lying on the east and west sides, hence the name Longtan Canyon. Along the canyon, there are red rock cliffs, waterfalls and secluded pools, narrow valleys and grotesque rocks, which constitute a rare landscape corridor in the world. Stunning and lingering. ?
There are six natural mysteries in the canyon: water flowing upwards, Buddha's light and Luohan Cliff, giant's fingerprint, seal book on stone, butterfly spring and immortal's footprint; There are seven deep waterfalls: Wulongtan, Longxiantan, Qinglongtan, Heilongtan, Wolong Lake, Yinyang Lake and Reed Lake. There are also eight natural wonders: the peerless monument, the Spring and Autumn Period on the stone, the Tan Weng Valley of Yin and Yang, the Five Dynasties corrugated stone, the sky falling, the Tongling Lane Valley, the magpie welcoming guests, and the silver chain hanging in the sky. ?
The peerless monument is more than 50 meters high and is a huge collapsed rock block. Due to the displacement during the collapse, the rock strata that were almost horizontally produced stood upright at this time, towering over the edge of the canyon, tall and majestic, and the scene was changeable. Looking up from different angles, or goshawk, bird, flying fish, knife back, or celestial monument, it was endowed with infinite reverie by nature. ?
Spring and Autumn on the Stone is named after a sandalwood tree growing on the stone. Sandalwood is a leguminous plant, deciduous tree and umbrella crown, which is often used as an ornamental tree. This sandalwood tree in Longtan Gorge, with its tenacious vitality, is rooted in the crevices and stands upright on the rocks. It is really "a few sandalwood trees are green and full of rocks, standing proudly year after year." ?
The urn valley of Yin and Yang pools is connected by two pools, like a gourd with a waist. Because of the uneven sunshine and different light and shade in the Gorge, it is called "Yang Pool" and "Yin Pool". The urn is a rice container in northern China, which is characterized by a small mouth and a big belly. Above Yintan and Tan Yang in Longtan Canyon, there are two canyons shaped like urns, called "urn valleys", which are washed by running water. ?
There are a large number of collapsed boulders in the 3-kilometer-long Hongshi Canyon in Longtan Gorge. On the level of these megaliths, hundreds of different types of wave marks can be seen, which is a rare "natural wave mark museum" in China. Lianshi in the Five Dynasties is a cascade relic formed by the physical migration of sediments under the action of water or wind in geological times. It is named after the change of sedimentary environment and five layers of ripples with different shapes. ?
In Longtan Gorge, pieces of thick and big stones, such as rows of collapsed houses and stone walls, collapsed in a few miles deep mountain canyon, silently and vividly telling the historical vicissitudes of crustal movement, which is called the landscape of the sky falling and the earth sinking! ?
Tongling Lane Valley refers to a valley with a flat bottom, vertical cliffs on both sides and a valley width of only a few meters to a dozen meters. Luohan Cliff of Foguang in Longtan Gorge is an alley, with a length of 100 meters and a width of 10 meters. Walking in an alley is like crossing a street. ?
Standing next to the wave scar cliff in Longtan Gorge, looking up at the top of the cliff on the right, there is a strip stone protruding head-on. It looks like a magpie, and its posture is like welcoming guests. This scenic spot is called Magpie Welcome. ?
Silver chains falling from the sky are also known as first-line waterfalls and waterfalls. I saw a trickle gushing from the V-shaped narrow valley on the cliff as high as 50 meters, like flying in vain, silver thread fluttering and pearls slipping. Geologically, it is called "Hanging Valley Waterfall".
