    "The Yellow River Stone Forest, which is worth seeing, is recommended to everyone. There was no itinerary in the itinerary plan, and the itinerary was temporarily increased due to family time problems. Very shocking, sighing at the ghostly work of nature! The scenic traffic in the scenic area is also very powerful, and I also enjoy the discount."

    41.7km from downtown
    Highlights: Jingtai Yellow River Stone Park is near the Yellow River, southeast Jingtai County, Baiyin City, Gansu Province. It is dominated by a large canyon about 9 kilometers (5.6 miles) long along the Yellow River. There are towering stone forests on both sides of the canyon presenting a very unique landform. The main attraction of the Stone Park is the observation deck at the end of the main grand canyon. In addition to the stone landscape, there is an opportunity to sample many of the local folk customs. The donkey carts in the canyon exemplify these folk customs. Local elderly women lead the donkey carts, often singing northwestern folk songs.
