The Famous Colorful Hills of Zhangye

Zhangye in Western China’s Gansu Province is famous for its beautiful natural landscapes. None is perhaps more well-known than the famous colorful hills. These are located about 1 hour outside of Zhangye City and are simply gorgeous. I recommend traveling during off l-peak times such as we did in mid-May. There were very few visitors in the park and the weather was fine. We had a bit of clouds, which was unfortunate but the temperature was very comfortable. I recommend giving yourself a day to visit the Danxia park and also maybe going to another location nearby. #unforgettableexperiences#couplestrip#hiking#nationalpark#naturalwonders#roadtrip#urbanexplorer

🌈 ⠀ ⠀ Definitely thought the colours were not going to be as impressive as we’d hoped. While colours IRL were a little more muted than we had seen online, we were still blown away by the sprawling mountain scenery. ⠀ ⠀ These mountains cover an area of over 200 square miles, and are made from Cretaceous sandstone and siltstone that boast a primarily ‘deep red’ colour. We were lucky enough to be staying at a nearby ‘campsite’ where a number of traditional Kaoshan tent (similar to that of a yurt) gave us shelter for the night and enabled us to see the mountains up close and personal as soon as the sun rose!⠀ ⠀ 📍Zhangye Danxia Landform Geological Park, Gansu Province, China Price: 60 RMB for entry to the colourful hills (includes a 20 RMB sightseeing bus ticket) #urbanexplorer#qingmingtravel
