Stromatolite

Diexiangyan is located on the east side of Jiaolong Grand Canyon near Jiaokeng, next to foshengyan. It is about 40 meters high and 15 meters wide. It is made of 14 rectangular granite blocks. Each stone is like a box, which is similar to several boxes stacked together, so it is called diexiangyan. This wonderful scene is a masterpiece of nature.

Stacked box rock is very common in Dayang mountain Geopark of Jinyun. The poem of Zhang Qingqian in Qing Dynasty says: "the overlapping stones are like boxes, like dowries under the sun. Willow line drag to shape curl, moss drying on the color of gray. Far away from the blue cloud lock, far away from the red beautiful Zhang. The Caoxi River in Yongzhen is like a scene, which makes people look out and grow up. "

After passing Jiaokeng village, Huyuan Township, Jinyun, and Panxi cascade III power station, you can go upstream along Jiaolong Grand Canyon. You can see the stacked box rock on the left side of the road when the road goes out of the tunnel.
