Introduction

Shiniuzhai National Geological Park rises up to 523 meters, and its western part has a large stone that looks like a yellow ox, hence the name Shiniu. The park has steep and magnificent terrain, with cliff walls and sky cliffs resembling those of Mount Hua. The tourist attractions are rich and varied, and can be summarized as "One Ox, Two Turtles, Three Dangerous Passes, Four Bridges, Five Villages, Six Sky Lines, Seven Strange Stones, Eight Temples, and One Hundred and Eight Cliff Sceneries with no limits on their fan shape." Each attraction is famous for its excitement, with the most rare being the intact ancient city wall, known as the "number one fortification in the world."
