Attractions: 01. Hongshi Gorge "China's No. 1 Wonderful Gorge", Hongshi Gorge, also known as Wenpanyu, is a beautiful, secluded, majestic, and dangerous scenic spot.

The cliffs and rocks on both sides of the gorge are beautiful, like a huge bonsai carved by magical craftsmanship, and also like the concentration of famous mountains and rivers. Garden experts call it "Natural Landscape Gallery". The stratigraphic structure of Hongshi Valley, from top to bottom, is Ordovician limestone 400 million years ago, Cambrian limestone 470-510 million years ago, and Mesoproterozoic purple-red quartz sandstone from 10 to 1.4 billion years ago. In addition, in Bailongtan in Hongshi Valley, geologists also discovered zircons 3.4 billion years ago, which is the oldest rock ever found on earth. There are geological relics such as angular unconformity, corrugated stone, Danya broken wall, tortoise rock, angular unconformity and so on. After visiting the scenic spot, Dr. Ide, Director of the Department of Earth Sciences of UNESCO, lamented: “I have to admit that Yuntai Mountain is a unique and incomparable geopark. It gave me the impression of a piece of music, a song of Bedo. Fern's symphony is one of the most beautiful landscape symphony.
02. Tanpu Gorge "China's first beautiful water" Tanbao Gorge, also known as Xiaozhaigou, is the main representative of Mt. Yuntaishan gorge.

"Xiuwu County Chronicles" recorded that Wang Lie, an easy man in the Wei and Jin Dynasties, was thirsty for drinking this spring and hungry for Huang Jing. He lived to 338 years old and still walked like flying. The landform feature of the "U"-shaped cliff wall of Tanpuxia is the result of the combined action of surface water and groundwater. Over the past 2.6 million years, due to the lateral erosion, undercutting, dissolution and gravitational collapse of surface water and groundwater, this kind of urn-shaped urn-shaped three-sided cliff has been formed. Tanpuxia Gorge is 2,000 meters long and takes about one and a half hours to visit.

Since 23 million years, it has undergone long-term water erosion, transportation, and gravitational collapse, causing the ancient planation plane at an altitude of 800-1200 meters to be severely undercut, forming a length of 3000.Meters, 500 meters deep canyon. There are some geological relics such as oolitic limestone, pinnate cross bedding, and collapsed rock blocks. Quanpu Gorge is 3000 meters long, and the tour takes about two and a half hours.
