An essay describing the stone forest of the Yellow River

1 Yellow River Stone Forest

I have long heard that there is a Yellow River Stone Forest in Jingtai County, Gansu Province, which is famous for its magic. This summer vacation, I visited the Yellow River Stone Forest with curiosity.

Entering the Stone Forest, I walked leisurely on the mountain path for a while, and before I knew it, I came to the first scenic spot-smiling all the time. Looking at the mountain wall, I saw a cave halfway up the mountain, which was very similar in shape to the mouth when people were laughing. This "mouth" seems to be amused by some big event, laughing from ear to ear!

After "Smile Forever", we moved on, and we came to another scenic spot-the China Zodiac. I saw a place covered with moss on the mountain wall. I take a closer look, and it turns out that the shape of this moss is exactly what the animals in the zodiac look like. Look, the dog seems to see a bone and is running forward. Look, that mouse is sneaking around as if to steal rice ... They show themselves vividly one by one, just like living animals.

After watching it, we embarked on a journey again. On the way, we saw many scenic spots, such as elephants splashing in the water, the Monkey King, Farewell My Concubine, dragons and tigers leaping, and monkeys stealing peaches. ...

They line up in front of you, smiling at you and whispering to you. Every scenic spot is like a beautiful painting and a beautiful poem.

After that, we came to the famous scenic spots-the four great men. I saw four huge stones standing on the top of the mountain. People named these four great stones after great men, namely Mao Zedong, Stalin, Roosevelt and Churchill. These four great men have made great contributions to world peace, as if they were looking at the world and paying attention to the general trend of world peace. ...

The tour guide told us that these scenery are naturally formed, and the word "naturally formed" made me greatly awe the magical power of nature.

The Yellow River Stone Forest is really a magical and beautiful place.

When it comes to the Stone Forest, people often think of the Stone Forest in Yunnan and the beautiful legend about "Ashima Ahei". In Jingtai County, our province, there is a Yellow River Stone Forest in Jingtai, which stands shoulder to shoulder with Yunnan Stone Forest and has two peaks.

The Stone Forest of the Yellow River is an unprecedented unique landform wonder, a masterpiece beyond time and space, and a superior combination of high-grade natural scenery with different styles. In this magical world, the breathtaking canyon stone forest and the winding meandering landscape of the Yellow River are interdependent, combining dynamic and static, and combining rigidity and flexibility; The quaint and humid Longwan Oasis faces the sparse and dry Bazitan Gobi across the river, and the two kinds of ecology are in sharp contrast. The scenic spot presents a superior combination of pure nature, large structure, multi-level and close interface, saturated with rich primitive ancient rhyme, which is amazing and unforgettable. Since the 1990s, domestic geological and tourism experts have determined that the Yellow River Stone Forest, which is the epitome of China's geology and geomorphology, is rare in China and unique in the northwest, which can be called "the natural wonder of China" and is expected to become another famous tourist attraction in the whole province and even the whole country.

The first time I saw the Yellow River Stone Forest, I was shocked by its colorful and magnificent sight.

Compared with other famous scenic spots in China, the Yellow River Stone Forest is famous for its ancient, strange, heroic, dangerous, wild and secluded nature, which fully embodies the rough, bold, simple and heavy western characteristics, enabling tourists to return to nature and appreciate the wonders while cultivating their temperament and body and mind. Wandering in the Stone Forest Scenic Area of the Yellow River, you can see the long river embracing the sun, the mountains connecting the clouds, the strange stone forest, the criss-crossing cliffs, the river reflecting the mountains, winding and winding, with a flat border of ten miles, the village lying down, the old houses are old, the new beaches are shaded, the river bend is green, the jujube trees are full of branches, the melons and fruits are fragrant, and the waterwheel sings late. If there is no Tianqiao ancient road to climb the top of Nanshan, you can have a panoramic view of the peak forest, winding path, oasis and Gobi, which makes people feel relaxed and happy. However, the primitive power that has never changed in the vicissitudes of life, the pitiful spirit revealed in the canyon, and the richness of sunshine have taught people to open their eyes when they feel. As for the precipitousness of Guanyin Cliff, the profundity of Laolonggou, the magic of Panlong Cave, the quietness of Liang Qing Temple, the confusion around ten ditches in the village, the majestic momentum of the ancient stone forest peaks in the canyon, and the dreamy mountains, exquisite rivers, quiet oases and carefree Gobi in the whole 34 square kilometers scenic area, not only make people forget their troubles in meditation and reverie, but also make people get rid of the secular world.

The time and space with a long history and the magical power of nature have shaken the skeleton of mountains and rivers and developed into various artistic shapes. Nature's divine works have inspired people's wisdom and inspired them. People living in this magical land, with their own wisdom and simple and kind thoughts and feelings, have created brilliant history and culture and accumulated profound cultural heritage of the scenic spot. The stalagmite stone forest in the scenic area is supported by Guanyin on the ground, Quyuan asks heaven, Mulan comes home, elephants absorb water, there are lovers under the moon, the goddess looks at the moon, and the golden dragon looks at the sky, which has beautiful and magical legends. These legends, like local wine-making and fruits, exude primitive and rich fragrance, which can make people generally feel its sweetness.

3 Yellow River Stone Forest

During the summer vacation, my mother took me to the Yellow River Stone Forest.

The Yellow River Stone Forest is located in Jingtai County, Gansu Province, with an area of 34 square kilometers. It used to have many names: Laolonggou, Shenxian Cave and so on. Later, an old man came here and thought it was very similar to the karst landform in Yunnan, so he gave it a nice name "Longwan Stone Forest". Because it is beside the Yellow River, people call it "Yellow River Stone Forest".

We set off from Ningxia Zhongwei and drove for about two hours. This is a unique landscape on the Loess Plateau, naturally formed by nature, without any artificial traces. Standing on the observation deck, from a distance, the Yellow River flows from east to west like a yellow belt. It is said that this is a rare backward reach of the Yellow River! Shilin scenic spot is in the grand canyon washed out by the Yellow River.

We came to the bank of the Yellow River, boarded the sheepskin raft, changed to a donkey cart at the gate of the scenic spot and walked into the winding canyon. Finally, I can observe the Stone Forest at close range, and I was immediately attracted by its peculiar landform. Looking up, I saw stalagmites towering into the sky, indomitable spirit and different shapes, and I couldn't help but marvel. Walking on a donkey cart, the path in the canyon began to look like a maze, which made me a little dizzy. Suddenly, turning a corner, a big cave appeared in front of my eyes. It looked like an open mouth and smiled when I was away. My mother told me that it was called Smile Forever, which was so vivid. Walking, suddenly a vivid pattern appeared on the rock on the left. Look carefully, some look like galloping horses, and some look like mice with long tails. It turns out that this place is the "Zodiac Wall". Walking along the canyon, we saw another boulder, which seemed to fly from outer space and landed between two huge stalagmites. This is a flying stone. I can't help feeling the wonder of nature! There are many landscapes in the canyon, such as Li Kui jy's back mother, Smooth sailing, Owl Stone and so on.

In the Yellow River Stone Forest, I saw the magical power of nature, learned a lot about nature and had a good time. I think I must come to this magical place again when I grow up!

During the Dragon Boat Festival holiday, my mother's unit organized a two-day tour to the Yellow River Stone Forest in Lanzhou. I can take my family with me. I was lucky enough to participate in this activity with my mother, but unfortunately my father didn't attend because of something.

That morning, my father took us to the central square and other travel companies' cars, and my mother's colleagues arrived early, waiting for us to start at 7: 30 on time. The tour guide told us that Xining is about 400 kilometers away from Shilin, and it takes more than five hours to walk. To our surprise, the tour guide suggested that every small group should perform a program, so that everyone would not feel lonely and bored during the trip. Unexpectedly, Sister Xiao Yang, whose voice just fell on the mother team, was the first to go to the stage to praise the program. She sang so well that everyone asked for another song, so every small group performed and laughed all the way. Five hours passed quickly and arrived at the first destination-Shilin. It was lunch time. We went to the farmhouse and had a big lunch. It was delicious.

In the afternoon, we came to the first tourist attraction-Shilin Grand Canyon. To go to the Grand Canyon, you have to take a local sheepskin raft and donkey cart. Don't mention how happy you are. I like adventure. However, the weather is not beautiful, and there are sandstorms. The wind is too strong. The tour guide sister said that it is rare to have such a strong wind here. Let's go by donkey cart for a while, and the donkey cart driver will explain the local customs and lifelike stone forest statues to us. It's really amazing. The scenery there is so beautiful that we stop to take pictures from time to time. We soon came to the top of the mountain to see the panoramic view of the stone forest. My mother said it seemed like a fairyland, so spectacular.

In the evening, we held a bonfire party and it rained moderately again. In the local area, it rained for up to 365 days. We were really lucky that the storm caught up. The guide asked everyone to sing and jump. It rained so hard that few people danced. Most of them are singing, and I signed up to sing. When it was my turn, my heart was pounding and my face seemed to have a fever.

The next morning, after breakfast, I went to Lanzhou Film and Television City, the second scenic spot. The tour guide explained the Myth shot by Jackie Chan and Kim Hee Seon here. At that time, the scene was magnificent and everyone shouted excitedly. I wanted to play something else, but I ran out of time, so I had to bite the bullet and leave.

In the afternoon, we had to return to Xining. Everyone was tired along the way, and the bus was very quiet. Only the driver's uncle was concentrating on driving, and when he woke up, he arrived at the destination Xining.

I love traveling, and I love the beautiful Yellow River Stone Forest even more!

5 Yellow River Stone Forest

This summer vacation, I went to the Yellow River Stone Forest in Jingtai, Gansu Province, and I also went to Xi 'an, Shaanxi Province to see the Terracotta Warriors ... I'll tell you more when I have time!

Let's start with the Yellow River Stone Forest. After a long journey, we finally arrived at this "Xanadu". If we want to see our true colors, we must cross the Yellow River in Tao Tao first. Let's take a sheepskin raft from the dock first. It's exciting to sit on a sheepskin raft, especially in a whirlpool or fast-flowing water. Below is the yellow river, and sitting on it feels like falling into the river. However, don't worry, we took protective measures and wore life jackets. In addition, the sheepskin raft is a ferry tool from ancient times to the present, and the whole sheepskin is filled with air. We took a 12 sheepskin, which can seat four people. When we arrived at the gate of Shilin, we went ashore and chose to take a donkey cart or ride a horse.

When I was riding a donkey cart, I stole a look at little ass in Xiao Lv, hee hee! The donkey we are sitting on is strong and lovely. Let's sit for half an hour. On the way, two middle-aged women sang folk songs beside the donkey cart, and later they learned that they had come to ask for tips. The Yellow River Stone Forest was formed in the geological age of Late Tertiary and Early Quaternary four million years ago. Due to Yanshan movement, crustal uplift, river bed undercutting, weathering, rain erosion and gravity collapse, a stone forest landform spectacle dominated by yellow-brown river and lake facies glutenite was formed. Stone pillars and stalagmites in the scenic area are generally between 80 and 200 meters. The cliffs are towering, the shapes are changeable, the peaks turn around, and the scene moves a thousand steps. Shilin is actually a lot of grotesque stones, including frogs, Santa Claus, jack-o-lanterns and zodiac pictures ... There are endless stories, and it is also the shooting base of many science fiction films and martial arts films. After riding the donkey cart, we changed to the cable car and went to the observation deck.

Not to mention how beautiful the scenery on the observation deck is, it's like walking into a picture scroll. But the left and right sides are completely two different styles of scenery. On the left, I feel that the sky is within reach, and I can't see the rivers and mountains on the side. On the right, a small mountain peak stands before my eyes, like an ink painting. After coming down from the observation deck, we went back the same way, first by cable car and then by donkey cart. Coincidentally, Tian Tian and her father are very close to Cable Car No.3, and it is always there.

I suggest you go to the Yellow River Stone Forest to play, and then experience it yourself.
