Step into a natural gallery from hundreds of millions of years ago at Longtan Grand Canyon, Henan

✨Rush to these stunning hidden gems around Luoyang! Once you enter the canyon, you’re transported back to ancient times!! 📍Address: Longtangou Village, Shijing Town, Xin’an County, Luoyang City (recommended to drive or hire a car) ⏰Opening Hours: 8:00 AM - 4:00 PM (best viewing in summer and autumn) 🎫Ticket: 78 RMB (totally worth it) 💦The first stop amazed me with "water flowing uphill"!! A 50-meter visual feast of water flowing against the current, no Photoshop at all!! Photographers can easily capture stunning shots📸 Key point: This is a visual trick caused by the tilted rock layers~ 🌊Cascade of pools and waterfalls: ▪️Wulong Waterfall: a hundred-meter red cliff + a Milky Way falling from the sky vibe🌊 ▪️Heilong Pool: a glowing green dragon palace vibe🐉 (drone shots recommended!) The water surface sparkles under the autumn sun✨so beautiful words fail me ⛰️Hundreds of millions of years of geological wonders: ▪️Foguang Luohan Cliff: a natural weathered "immortal formation" (Best viewing time for Buddha’s light is 3 PM⏳) ▪️Tianbei Stone: a 50-meter-high natural monument📜 Every angle reveals a new look!! 📌Must-see Tips: 1️⃣ Wear non-slip shoes! The stream stones are very slippery 2️⃣ Bring a wide-angle lens + drone for even more amazing shots 3️⃣ The canyon is narrow, be cautious during the rainy season 4️⃣ Recommended visit duration: 3-4 hours Nature’s craftsmanship is truly incredible!! This trip completely filled up my phone’s memory with photos🤳
