Kuqa Grand Canyon, located on the National Highway 217 Duku Road, about 70 kilometers away from Kuche County. The Kuqa Grand Canyon is a gorge in the Krystal Mountains of the Tianshan Mountains. It is formed by red-brown rocks through the wind and rain erosion of nature for hundreds of millions of years. The reddish-brown mountain clusters are straight into the sky, and under the sun, it is like a cluster of burning flames. At dusk, the light at this time is the most suitable for shooting. Under the sun's rays, the rocks of different shapes are spread out. The unique red KUC Grand Canyon valley is wide open, and it is sometimes in the valley. Wide, sometimes narrow. The entire valley is relatively flat, with high-rise walls on both sides, fine sand at the foot, and a shallow layer of water on some sections. Step into the depths of the canyon, there will be many landscapes along the way, such as Nantianmen, Ghost Valley, Crescent Tooth Gap, Huya Bridge, Motian Cave, and Xiongshi Tears. These landscapes need to make full use of your imagination to truly appreciate the depth of the landscape. Enter from the scenic valley, walk for about half an hour, you can reach the end of the scenic spot. Here, due to the falling rock, blocking the road, the original road must be returned to the valley sun west oblique, the afterglow spilled over the top of the mountain, a dazzling golden glow, the Grand Canyon at this time, quiet and magnificent. But there are many chilling legends in the Grand Canyon. At the foot of the Thousand Buddha Caves in the valley, in the morning or evening, a cloud of smoke like fog is rising from the bottom of the valley, moving around the mountain; sometimes suddenly a figure like a gossip emerges from the ground. The foggy yin and yang spheres roll up along the cliffs. Of course, these are legends, if you want to verify them yourself.
