Zhangye National Geopark, located in the Gansu Province of China, is renowned for its stunning and colorful rock formations. Spanning an area of approximately 322 square kilometers, the park is a geological wonder, featuring the unique Danxia landform. The vibrant, layered hues of red, orange, yellow, and green are a result of mineral deposits and red sandstone that have been eroded over millions of years. This natural spectacle, often referred to as the "Rainbow Mountains," draws visitors from around the world who come to marvel at its breathtaking beauty and to explore its diverse landscapes.
