Rainbow Beach has a special landform, long-term arid area, and strong winds prevail, so that many steep hills (piers) alternate with wide and shallow ditches and aquatic plants. The steep hills suddenly come from the original flat land, and Uighurs call them Ya Dan. The word Ya Dan has become a common term in world geography and archaeology, so it is called Ya Dan landform. Therefore, Rainbow Beach has become a typical representative of similar landforms. The landform of Ya Dan in Rainbow Beach Scenic Area includes large and small stone peaks, stone walls and stone pillars. The peaks are dense, magnificent, rigid and flexible, colorful, spotless, extraordinary and original, which constitutes a magnificent picture of splendid mountains and rivers.

The general landform of Ya Dan is surrounded by Gobi desert landscape, but the wonder and extraordinary feature of Rainbow Beach is that it is located in the beautiful Irtysh River valley, showing bright red, yellow, mysterious blue and purple, which makes the green valley on the other side more quiet. Completely different landforms, so interdependent, separated by a river on both sides, like two worlds, with strong contrast and natural beauty.
