Attractions
Yucha Grand Canyon, also known as Ganquan Grand Canyon, is located in Ganquan County, Yan'an City, Shaanxi Province. A major geological wonder of the Loess Plateau, it bears a striking resemblance to the Antelope Canyon in the United States, earning it the nickname "China's Antelope Canyon." The canyon boasts magnificent scenery, winding and winding, varying in width from just over ten meters wide to barely wide enough for a person to pass sideways. The traces of time are gracefully carved into the cliffs, leaving one marvel at the wonders of nature and the marvels of creation. Yucha Grand Canyon is a collective name encompassing various sections, including Birch Valley, Leopard Valley, Longba Valley, Peony Valley, and One-Line Sky. Birch Valley, at 800 meters long, is the most spectacular of the four seasons, reaching its peak beauty in summer. Within the canyon, you'll feel like you're in a dynamic state. The interweaving of curving and straight lines flows smoothly, resembling waves. And the lush moss brings the greenery to its fullest! It's truly breathtaking! Many photographers find it hard to leave once they enter the canyon. We'll stroll through it, taking in the scenery with every step, posing and admiring, experiencing an intimate connection with nature and exploring the mysteries of time passing.
