Located in Jiaozuo, Henan, Hongshi Gorge of Yuntai Mountain is a rare Danxia landform in northern China, often praised as a “bonsai canyon” for its breathtaking scenery. Red cliffs rise above emerald pools, while layered waterfalls cascade into the waters set like jade inlays between the rock walls. Combining elegance, mystery, grandeur and rugged beauty, it captures the very essence of Yuntai Mountain’s scenic charm.
