Description


Mount Danxia

Mount Danxia (Chinese: 丹霞山; pinyin: dānxiáshān) is a noted scenic area near Shaoguan city in the northern part of Guangdong, People's Republic of China. The Danxia mountain is formed from a reddish sandstone which has been eroded over time into a series of mountains surrounded by curvaceous cliffs and many unusual rock formations (Danxia Landform). It is described on the local signage as a "world famous UNESCO geopark of China". There are a number of temples located on the mountains and many scenic walks can be undertaken. There is also a river winding through the mountains on which boat trips can be taken.
