Geological form

Lava Canyon

Standing on the west side of the road on the other side, looking forward to this magnificent Canyon, it is amazing and amazing to clap your hands. The uncanny workmanship of nature makes the lava engraved vividly and picturesquely! Yalu River Gorge is a V-shaped, U-shaped and trough shaped gorge of Changbai Mountain, which is another type of "compound" flat filling. Under the camel peak, the Yalu River flows slowly, green and clear. On both sides of the river valley, there are Yuehua cliffs, beautiful flowers, auspicious grass and birds singing in the empty valley. Baishan mandarin ducks are playing in pairs in the river. The mountain flowers and willows are reflected in the river. The green waves are changing with charming colors, which fully shows this strange scenery. On both sides of the canyon, there are white gray pumice, obsidian, volcanic bombs, volcanic boulders, and so on.

Alpine forest Gorge

Arranged on the upper side of the lava gorge, the lush coniferous pine forest covers the place, which is dark but not light. Each pine tree is like a green tower, straight into the top of the valley.

Canyon Garden

There is also a huge flat mountain garden in the canyon, which adds color to the canyon. What's the name of this garden? It's hard for many creative planning experts: there are many varieties of mountain flowers, and hundreds of mountain flowers bloom in the same season. Should they be called "hundred flowers garden"? But in the canyon, it's called "Canyon garden"? Perhaps until now, there are only photography, few paintings. The painters are puzzled. How to paint cuckoos and lilies? Painting Lilu and Tangsong? Huaxisun, Shanmei? Eyes also see flowers, all kinds of gorgeous, blossoming beautiful, how to draw this brilliant work of mountain flowers?

Canyon wetland

On the top of the mountain and among the birch trees, it is rare to see a vast expanse of wetland with Artemisia and swamps everywhere. It conserves water resources and balances ecology. It shares the same fate with the great forest and tries its best to maintain the pure natural ecology here. Some people call it "the lung of the mountain" vividly. Flocks of wild ducks, mandarin ducks, and even the rare Chinese merganser, have settled here to breed and become a paradise for birds.
