Canyon landforms are distributed in low mountains to middle mountains, with a slope greater than 30°. , its shape and distribution direction are obviously controlled by structure and lithology, the terrain is complex, there are canyons between the mountains, the mountains are steep, and the valleys are deeply cut. Due to the action of flowing water and gravity, steep cliffs with a height of tens to hundreds of meters are formed on both sides of the canyon, as well as canyon landforms of different scales such as peak clusters, stone forts, stone walls, stone pillars and canyons.

Nature has created Yuanyangxi, a majestic and spectacular canyon landform with thousands of rocks and gorges in various shapes. The sparkling white water combines the beautiful scenery of the water in the mountains. The mountains and water complement each other. There are mountains in the water, water in the mountains, mountains surrounded by water, and water around the mountains. The static and dynamic are reasonably coordinated, forming a unique charm. The water park landscape can be called a wonderland on earth and is praised as a "wonder of the world" by Chinese and foreign tourists.

4. Development history and scientific research results of Baishuiyang Geopark

Before liberation, the Yuanyang Pool in Shanghai Zoo was engraved with the words "Yuanyang—produced in Yiyang, Pingnan, Fujian, the hometown of Yuanyang" ” words. In 1957, Yuanyang Creek began to be promoted to the outside world. After the reform and opening up in 1979, the name Yuanyang Creek was used to describe the relationship between the two sides of the Taiwan Strait and was used to promote Taiwan. At this time, the reputation of Yuanyang Creek greatly increased. In 1980, the Pingnan County Government began preparations to establish the Yiyang Mandarin Duck Macaque Nature Reserve; in August 1984, the Fujian Provincial People's Government officially approved the establishment of the Mandarin Duck Macaque Nature Reserve. In 1986, the Pingnan County Tourism Bureau was established. In March 1991, Yuanyang Creek was listed as a provincial-level scenic spot, and in January 1994, it was approved as a national key scenic spot. In June 2005, it was approved as a provincial geological park by the Provincial Department of Land and Resources, and in September of the same year, it was approved as a national geopark by the Ministry of Land and Resources.

The volcanic rock landforms, flat bedrock river beds, Yiyang volcanic structures, acidic volcanic rocks, columnar joints, etc. in the Pingnan Baishuiyang Geopark area are important research in geology, geohistory, environmental geology and other disciplines. content. Before liberation, only sporadic geological and mineral survey work was done in the park. The 1970s was the period when systematic geological and mineral surveys were carried out in the area. The Fujian Provincial Regional Geological Survey Team carried out a 1:200,000 regional geological and mineral survey and made relatively correct conclusions about the stratigraphic age, volcanic rocks, volcanic structures and regional structures of the park, which provided a basis for geological research in the region and the development of the park. The application provides a large amount of detailed information.

In addition, in the early 1980s, in order to apply for a nature reserve, relevant departments conducted a survey of wild animal and plant resources, which laid a solid foundation for subsequent ecological surveys and animal and plant research.

In the late 1980s and early 1990s, in order to cooperate with the application for national key scenic spots, the Pingnan County Government commissioned the Fujian Urban and Rural Planning and Design Institute to conduct surveys and research on various natural, cultural and other landscape resources, and compiled a master plan for this project. Geopark provides reference opinions.

11. Scientific significance and value of Baishuiyang Geopark

Baishuiyang Geopark is a series of special scientific significance, rare and high aesthetic value, which can represent the geological evolution of special structural locations. It is a unique natural area composed of multiple geological relics of history, specific geohistorical events and geological processes, combined with beautiful natural landscapes and rich cultural landscapes.

The park is located in the active zone of the Pacific Plate continental margin. During the Cretaceous Period, the Pacific Plate and the Eurasian Plate collided, stretched, and rifted. It showed the occurrence and development of strata, acidic magma intrusion, and bimodal volcanic eruptions, illustrating the Cretaceous continent. The marginal active zone has a special and complete geological development and evolution history, which has extremely special scientific significance in geoscience.

The special geotectonic location and unique internal and external geological forces have created the unique geological and landform landscape of the Geopark. The Jurassic and Late Cretaceous volcanic rock eruptions and Cretaceous magma intrusion provided the material basis for the development of volcanic rock canyon landforms. In the recent period about 23.3 million years ago, the uplift of the earth's crust controlled the landform pattern of the same period. The canyon landform composed of volcanic rocks is a typical relic of the neotectonic movement.

Pingnan Baishuiyang Geopark is located in a special geological structure location, complex geological processes, and complete types of canyon landforms. It not only develops negative landforms, but also has positive landforms such as peak forests and peak clusters. It also develops many types , caves, waterfalls, shoals, deep pools, canyon landform landscape series with different origins and their development and evolution remains are ideal places to study canyon landforms.

Pingnan Baishuiyang Geopark is located in the middle section of the Jiufeng Mountains. The mid-subtropical quarterly warm and humid climate, special geographical location and landform conditions have created a good ecological environment in Pingnan Baishuiyang Geopark and maintained species. The original ecosystem, its diverse animal and plant communities fully reflect the originality of the ecosystem, the diversity and rarity of species. The beautiful canyon landforms show extremely high aesthetic value, and the long-standing cultural heritage, cultural landscapes and natural landscapes together constitute rich and colorful tourism resources.

Pingnan Baishuiyang Geopark’s rich geological relics, unique natural and cultural heritage and in-depth geoscience research foundation provide a platform for geoscience popularization education and the development of geoscience tourism, as well as for Chinese and foreign scholars to conduct in-depth geoscience research. With a solid foundation, it has become an important geological research, education base and tourist attraction, and has greatly promoted the tourism and social and economic development of Pingnan County and Fujian Province. At present, the park has initially demonstrated its superior location advantages and its huge main value and potential. With its convenient and relatively complete viewing and browsing and scientific research conditions, the park will surely integrate tourism, leisure vacation, entertainment, scientific research and popular science education. comprehensive geopark.
