There is a place called Hongshi Gorge.

One must go there with the beloved one at least once in a lifetime! 

 

"Red cliffs and long walls, deep and secluded canyons" are hers.

"Meandering and twisting, with turns and bends in the path" are hers.

"Emerald pools like jade, waterfalls like shattered snow" are also hers.

Hongshi Gorge is a crimson romance from 1.4 billion years ago! 

 

Walking in the "Geological Encyclopedia" 

Fourteen billion years ago, this place was once an ocean. 

And this red cliff wall was deep beneath the sea, waiting for the world. 

Descending layer by layer along the steps paved with red stone slabs, 

at a depth of 68 meters underground, there lies such a paradise-like existence. 

 

 

Following the meandering ripples along the cliff face,

my fingertips felt the cold and moist response.

In a trance, it seemed as if I had crossed the 1.4-billion-year-long river of time,

touching the resolute chest of this red cliff,

with a "thump, thump" vibration. 

 

The "nature's palette" has been spilled in the canyon. 

The crimson cliffs blaze like fire, the emerald pools shine like jade, 

the waterfalls cascade like snow, and the rainbows appear like dreams. 

The Red Stone Gorge  is like nature's most beloved little daughter, 

adorned with all the beauty of the world to enhance her charm. 

 

Red: The cliff walls are bathed in the rosy glow of the rising sun, as if ablaze with the colors of the dawn.

Blue: The deep pool holds the reflection of the spring mountains, its surface a mirror of clarity.

Gold: The slanting sun casts golden light, gilding the rock strata with a halo of divine radiance.

Rainbow: Water mist and light playfully paint a bridge of good fortune between the sheer cliffs. 

 

Hongshi Gorge is not only charming in its scenery, 

but also renowned worldwide for its miraculous formation history and grand scale.

 It is like a melodious tune that refreshes the mind and soul, 

and more like an intriguing book that inspires endless imagination and never fails to fascinate.
