The view of the Danxia landform in Gansu's Zhangye is so gorgeous and breathtaking that no words can match its beauty. You would be amazed at the nature's magical hands. The landscape is presented in multi-colors, such as red, yellow, orange, blue, white and grey. Some mountains look like a watercolor painting while others like a Chinese brush drawing. Being in such a wonderland, you will feel like you were in a fairy tale. Danxia landform is created by red-colored sandstones and mud stones. It was listed as one of the 10 most amazing geographic wonders of the world by the National Geographic magazine in 2011.
