Hubei's 5A-level popular scenic spot, the "Enshi Grand Canyon" full of karst topography

#2024TravelReview

#EnshiGrandCanyon is a popular 5A scenic spot in Hubei Province. It has a canyon cliff landform that is as spectacular as the Grand Canyon. The canyon is 108 kilometers long and covers hundreds of miles of cliffs, thousands of feet of waterfalls, towering peaks, primeval forests, ancient villages and other attractions. The landforms are diverse and rich, and it is quite worth seeing!

The Enshi Grand Canyon is mainly composed of "karst" landforms, that is, limestone landforms, including cliffs, peaks, cenotes, fissures, caves, natural bridges, underground rivers, vertical shafts, stone forests, peak clusters, hanging valleys, etc., forming a rare three-dimensional lava landform.

Walking from the Yunlong River fissure into the Zhongshan area, the main attractions include the Line of Sky, the Cliff Corridor, and a Stick of Incense. There are many strange rocks in Enshi Canyon. "One Pillar of Incense" is a peak pillar that is more than 150 meters high and has a minimum diameter of only 4 meters. It can be said to be the treasure of the Grand Canyon.

The entire scenic area is covered by lush primeval forests, with flourishing vegetation everywhere, the air is very fresh, and it is very cool and comfortable to walk. The only drawback is that there are too many people and it lacks a sense of tranquility.
