The earliest discovery of wave rocks

Boyan was buried in the desert in the midwest of Australia until 1963, when a photographer named JOY HODGES took photos of Boyan during a trip and won the prize in the international photography competition in new york, USA. Later, this photo became the cover of National Geographic magazine and became famous for a while. After that, Boyan became a place where photographers rushed to take pictures. The secret of capturing the colorful lines of Langyan is to take photos in the afternoon, because this is the most vivid time of the day.

There is another beautiful rock near Boyan, named Makou. It is a hollow rock shaped like a hippopotamus's mouth. A few kilometers further north, there is a strange group of rocks called Hump Rock. This area of Western Australia is also famous for producing gold. 19 In the 1980s and 1990s, thousands of people came here to look for gold. Later, gold miners flocked to other places, but now the old and new gold mines here are still mining gold.
