Wave Valley, a world-class heritage
Wave Valley, Jingbian Red Sandstone Canyon, is named Wave Valley because the patterns on the rock sand are like waves.
The Danxia landform landscape of Wave Valley was formed during the Cretaceous period 96 million years ago. The sand dunes here are constantly soaked in groundwater, layered down, condensed into sandstone, and then shaped by crustal movement, running water and wind, forming various linear valleys, lane valleys, red cliffs and other unique Danxia landform landscapes, like time rings, earth fingerprints, recording the marks of billions of years of wind and frost washing the sand dunes, and recognizing the profound history and civilization of the Loess Plateau.
The total area of the Danxia landform in Wave Valley is 2.5 square kilometers, with three tour areas: Flame Danxia, Red Cliff Danxia, and Earth Heart Danxia.
🎈Flame Danxia
Flame Danxia, also known as Red Sandstone, is the earliest discovered Longzhou Danxia landform. The red sandstone in this area is brightly colored, looking like a flame mountain from a distance, hence the name. The layered red sandstone is like time rings, the winding rock texture is like waves, like flowing water, like a top, like clouds, there are waves without wind, and there are waves without water, the natural beauty is unparalleled. Flame Danxia belongs to the wave-type Danxia landform, which is a world-class geological heritage.
🎈Red Cliff Danxia
Red Cliff Danxia is a typical canyon landscape in the Wave Valley Scenic Area. The north side of the canyon is a nearly 100-meter-high red rock cliff, and the south side is a typical Loess Plateau landform. Walking in it, two completely different feelings bring a strong visual impact, and there is a strange beauty under the contrast. The bottom of the valley is full of green grass, the flowing sand river shuttles through it, and there are several natural "echo walls", one of which turns in an arc, chatting tens of meters away, not seeing the person, but the voice is almost in the ear, which is wonderful.
🎈Earth Heart Danxia
Earth Heart Danxia is a land landscape, all landscapes are from top to bottom to the earth, mostly canyons. Wind erosion and water erosion in the crisscrossing gullies have drawn a picture of flowing lines and magnificent scenery. Strongly push the space-time canyon, a line of sky!

When I came to the valley of waves, I saw red stones like mudslides, which were flowing in circles, in circles, in circles, in curves and in curves to the gully. This stone resembles a sandstone, and the weathering is very serious. Walking on top, you will slip the red sand attached to your skin without paying attention. Follow the red stones along the ditch and go down, and you will see large and flat stone walls in the wide area, which are red from top to bottom and are basically the same color. In the narrow, red stones appear to be flowing water, like red mud, flowing toward the bottom of the ditch. On the long mouth opposite the village ditch, the terrain here is relatively flat, those layers of stone like a large number of red cloths covered on the ground after being soaked, layer by layer, roll, plate under the sunset, abnormal red; A red water from loess slowly flows down low-lying areas. Along the trail of red stones, the eyes are suddenly wide, a river valley that looks like a canyon is in front. The red stones all solidified here in flowing water, like a red ice hanging, like a frozen magma, with the trench bottom of a small river and the distant windmills that rotate on the top of the green vegetation constitute a beautiful real picture.
This season, northern Shaanxi is bare everywhere, it is better to go to the Wave Valley, the children are very happy, there are really few people, and it is very clean. It should be better to have a spring flower in the valley in another month.
Wave Valley is a scenic spot found on the road, mistakenly hit, did not expect to be surprisingly good, worth a visit. The scenery inside is very spectacular, there are people soliciting guests at the door, or don't go, buy tickets yourself.
The Danxia landform landscape of the Wave Valley Scenic Area is located in the arid loess plateau and desert junction in northern China. The landscape is characterized by the wave-shaped Danxia micro-landform, and the Danxia Valley is the most typical. All lament that it is the ghost of nature, this place is known as the "year round of time, the fingerprint of the earth" Jingbian Wave Valley.
I saw it on the Internet before. It was very good when I saw it for free. Some people commented that it was comparable to the Antelope Valley in the United States, so I came to see it in person. The scenery is really good and distinctive, but the price is not cheap. The ticket is 80. It takes some time to walk on the glass plank road. You can take the small loop in a hurry
Personally feel that it is better than Zhang Yu's colorful Danxia. The area here is relatively large and there are many places to see. Adults and children are very satisfied!
