Introduction

Xingtai Grand Canyon, also known as the Canyon Group or the Taihang Wonder Canyon, is located in Hejiaping Village, Lulu Town, Xingtai County. It is 65 kilometers east of Xingtai city and borders on the Tianhe Ridge of Taihang Mountains, facing Zuquan County and Heshun County in Shanxi province to the west. The tourist area covers an area of 17.3 square kilometers and consists of 24 canyons. Among them, there are eight canyons with a length of over 1,000 meters, characterized by their narrowness, steepness, depth, red color, and clustering. The canyon group, dominated by quartz sandstone, has become a major natural wonder in the Taihang Mountains and is praised by experts as the "World Wonder Canyon". The Grand Canyon has three wonders: the first wonder is the unique canyon landscape, with deep and long canyons and sheer cliffs forming a monopolistic canyon spectacle. The main canyon, Huangchao Canyon, is a natural barrier between the mountains, stretching over 4,000 meters in length, more than 150 meters deep and only a few meters wide at its widest point, and just a few tens of centimeters wide at its narrowest point. It features dangerous peaks confronting each other, steep cliffs, and a narrow opening that gives the illusion of merging with the sky, hence the name "One-Line Sky." The second wonder is the tranquility of the 17.3 square kilometers of red cliff peaks and lush primitive secondary forests covering thousands of acres. The third wonder is the 10-plus-mile stretch of clear pools and flying waterfalls. The flowing water over millions of years has carved countless Taihang rings, forming deep and unfathomable stone jar water pools below Huangchao Rock. Mountain spring water rushes here and spirals out of the stone jar, forming waterfalls tens of meters high. The natural beauty, rich geological resources, ancient and solemn geological relics, and scientific management have made the developing Grand Canyon a provincial-level scenic spot, provincial-level geological park, and national AAAA-level tourist area in Hebei province.
