The lesser-known scenic spot in Guizhou---Tongren Grand Canyon
The Tongren Grand Canyon is located in the Songtao Miao Autonomous County of Tongren City, about 30km from Tongren City and about 40 kilometers from the ancient city of Fenghuang in Hunan.
Upon entering the Tongren Grand Canyon, you must first pass through a 40m tunnel, which makes the canyon seem very mysterious. The canyon is steep, hidden, secluded, vast, strange, and dangerous, with pristine canyons and forests. The dust-free fresh air and charming stream waterfall combine to form a fantastic natural landscape. The most attractive part of the canyon is the Xiaolongtan Waterfall and a line of sky.

Karst landforms have created many canyons in the Wuling Mountain area, and the Tongren Grand Canyon is the most representative of them. The river in the Tongren Grand Canyon originates from the Suma River in the Kerong area of the Phoenix Lare Mountain area, and after passing through Panxin and Miao Wangcheng, it converges with other rivers in Songtao to the Machao River. The Tongren Grand Canyon extends from the outlet of the Machao River Power Station to the dam of the Tiansheng Bridge Power Station. The scenic area is full of clear water, strange stones, dense forests, blooming flowers, clouds and mist, cliffs, karst caves and waterfalls, and charming scenery.

Today I came to a niche scenic spot in Tongren called "Songtao Hongshilin".
Songtao Hongshilin is located in Songtao Miao Autonomous County, Tongren City. It is an undeveloped and incomplete scenic spot.
The winding and steep mountain road, trekking through mountains and rivers to get here.
Attracted by everything in front of my eyes, covering an area of about 2,000 acres, the grand scale and layers of red stones are particularly eye-catching!!
It is said that 500 million years ago, this red stone forest area, like the Longxi Gorge, belonged to the Yangtze ancient sea in geological history.
The seabed has accumulated a large amount of carbonate material mixed with mud and sand. Through crustal movement and erosion, dissolution and other processes, it has formed a beautiful geological wonder of heavy folds, red and white interlacing, and crisscrossing.
The road to the destination is quite rough with many potholes. Cars should be cautious to avoid scraping the bottom. It is recommended to drive a high chassis vehicle, such as an SUV. The steepness of the mountain's toilet cannot be expressed in words.
Perhaps because there is no one managing the scenic area, taking photos while wearing red or light-colored clothes can result in great shots.
