01 The historical origin of glacial mortars

It is said that two to three million years ago, the surface of the earth was covered by huge layers of ice and mountain glaciers. The melt water of the glaciers carried ice debris and rock fragments. Debris, etc., flow downward along the glacier fissures in the form of "cylinder rhinestones", violently impacting, swimming and grinding the underlying rocks, eventually forming deep pits over time. These pits are very similar to the stone mortars used to pound rice in the south, so they are called ice mortars.

Glaciers are the remains of ancient glaciers. The long river of time flows quietly. I don’t know how many changes the Qishigu Ice Moru has experienced. Now they appear quietly in front of the world, telling the mystery of ancient times. At the same time, with their outstanding grace, they show their uniqueness to the world. Characteristic beauty.
