A spectacular sight in Zhejiang, millions of giant rocks stand in the sea, a rarity in the world

❤Recommended reason: The magic of nature far exceeds human imagination. While creating countless mountains and rivers, it also crafted various unique landscapes. On a small island along the coast of Ningbo, Zhejiang, thousands of huge stone pillars are neatly inserted into the sea, forming a peculiar seascape of stone forest cliffs that stretch about 6000 meters long, over 60 meters high, and cover a total area of 180,000 square meters. There is no other landscape in China with a similar shape and mechanism, and it is quite rare worldwide, earning it the reputation of a "world wonder". This is the "Hua'ao Stone Forest". 🌟Highlight features: Hua'ao Stone Forest is located on Hua'ao Island in Xiangshan County, Ningbo City, Zhejiang Province. Xiangshan is situated on the eastern coast of Zhejiang, with a coastline of 925 kilometers and 608 islands and reefs. The Hua'ao Stone Forest, with its unique landscape, is one of the iconic sights of the entire Xiangshan. 🌟Highlight features: Hua'ao Island has an area of 12.6 square kilometers, and the Hua'ao Stone Forest is located on the southeast side of the island. The Hua'ao Stone Forest is currently an open scenic area, mainly composed of marine erosion landforms, pebble beaches, sandy beaches, and cultural landscapes. 👍Upon entering the scenic area, there is a section of island mountain road. Although you can see the sea and some distant islands, the scenery is not particularly outstanding. However, when you reach the other side of the island, countless thick stone pillars, as if fallen from the sky, are obliquely inserted into the sea, forming a peculiar marine erosion landscape, which is truly astonishing. ✅Must experience: Even more amazing is that these stone pillars are uniform in thickness, neatly arranged, and the tops of the pillars are as smooth as if they were chopped by a giant axe. At this moment, all you can marvel at is the magic of nature. Looking around the world's coastal reefs, it is very difficult to find such a majestic and spectacular array of giant stone pillars. 📝It is understood that in 2009, a team of renowned geologists conducted a field survey of the Hua'ao Stone Forest, and the final conclusion was that the stone forest is a central-style volcanic magma channel from the late Jurassic period. After the volcanic eruption, the magma cooled evenly and slowly contracted to form a kind of vertical fission. The formation dates back about 150 to 200 million years, with extremely high scientific research and viewing value. 📝These giant stone pillars, after millions of years of wind and rain, as well as the pounding of seawater, still stand firm and their edges remain sharp, which is very puzzling. Some of the stone pillars that extend deep into the sea have trees and grass growing on their tops, and from a distance, they look like giant bonsai standing in the sea, which is breathtaking. 👍Most recommended: In addition, some stone pillars are inserted into the mountains, some of which are dozens of meters long, either standing upright or lying at an angle, neatly arranged to form the island's mountains. At the base of the stone pillars, there are occasional mysterious caves formed by fractures, deep and unfathomable. 📝Faced with such a spectacular sight, one can't help but feel that the Hua'ao Stone Forest is the result of a long battle between the waves and the stone pillars. Often the more perilous the scenery, the more it touches the soul. The weaker reefs have long turned into gentle sandy beaches, tenderly entwined with the sea. Only these iron-boned stone pillars have been built into steep cliffs and sharp rocks, still standing here, stubbornly confronting the waves day after day. 📍Detailed address: Hua'ao Island, Gaotang Township, Xiangshan County, Ningbo City, Zhejiang Province. 💰Admission fee: 40 yuan.
