I finally found the entrance to the legendary other world in Gansu

#Mainland Travel Stepping into the Ku Shui Danxia in Lanzhou is like falling into the folds of time and space. There are no noisy tourists here, only silent mountains. Over billions of years, the sandstone has been carved into a colorful dream. Ochre, bright yellow, dark brown...layers of color ribbons flow in the sunlight, like a palette pouring out of the earth. In this small secret place, time seems to stand still. There is only the whisper of the wind in my ears, and before my eyes is the wonders of the Creator. Kushui Danxia, ​​with its unique colors, opens a door to a different time and space for every visitor. Here, time seems to stand still, leaving only the purest colors and forms between heaven and earth. This place feels no less than Zhangye's Colorful Danxia, ​​but Zhangye is more famous for its development. In fact, there are many such Danxia in Gansu. You can drive in after you get to the navigation address. It can be said that there is a scene at every step. However, the phone has no signal after walking in. 🚗 Transportation: It is recommended to drive by yourself, about an hour from Lanzhou city 🗺️ Navigation address: Danxia Self-driving Tour Camp, Kushui Town, Yongdeng County 🎫 Tickets: Free and open 📷 Photography advice: It is recommended to go on a sunny day, the colors will be better and the photos will be more vivid
