The Guangdong Grand Canyon, also known as Ruyuan Grand Canyon or Yuebei Grand Canyon, is located in Dabu Town, Ruyuan Yao Autonomous County, Shaoguan City, Guangdong Province, about 70 km from the Ruyuan exit of the Jingzhu Expressway. Here, a 15-kilometer-long canyon winds its way through the landscape, its 300-meter depth awe-inspiring, like a scar torn across the earth, narrating the geological changes of hundreds of millions of years. Here, the Dabu River plunges from 200-meter-high cliffs, forming magnificent waterfalls, like the Milky Way cascading from the heavens, its roar echoing through the valley, a truly breathtaking sight. Here, towering peaks, jagged rocks, and ancient trees create a stunning natural landscape painting. Every step is a scenic view, every glance a moment of wonder.

🌟 A place worth visiting. It's actually a pit. You can climb down the stone steps to the bottom of the valley to see the waterfall, and then climb back. The scenery along the way is beautiful, but it's really tiring. It took about 3 hours to complete the whole journey. The next day, my legs were sore. But the beautiful scenery is worth it. ✅About the route There are two routes through the Grand Canyon. Remember to get a map when you enter the park. We recommend taking the full route. 1.

You can swim, so remember to bring a change of clothes. 3️⃣ Villagers sell their own products and food at the entrance. They are cheap and good. You can try them. 4️⃣ Bring some dry food. There is nothing to eat in the canyon. 5️⃣ There are two homestays at the entrance. The environment is average. You can choose to stay in the scenic area. It will be cheaper to book on site.

There are three viewing platforms on this step road. After coming down, look at the Grand Canyon scenery at the last 3rd viewing platform🚶 . Then quickly go down the steps. After coming down a section, check in the step road. It's quite steep🧐 . Of course, more importantly, I found something interesting in a house here. Look at the name on the side. This thing is called a waterwheel machine. There is also a construction drawing. I saw this thing for the first time. It's so fun😁 . After coming down from the waterwheel machine, shuttle all the way to the bottom. At this moment, I know that the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd viewing platforms are all weak. Where can they compare with the bottom of the valley?🧐 . Of course, what shocked me was not the Tenglong Waterfall, but the Rainbow Bridge hanging above the Tenglong Waterfall. How lucky I am😇 . If I remember correctly, this should be the first time I saw the Rainbow Bridge on the mountain waterfall in my life. How can I describe my mood with a shock? I started checking in before I came down from the steps, until the various angles below, I was not afraid of the wet ground, and I stayed here until the Rainbow Bridge slowly dissipated. It was still a reluctant mood, and I was still unfinished🙇...

#Fall The Ruyuan Grand Canyon, located in Dabu Town, Ruyuan County, Guangdong, is known as a beautiful scar on the Guangdong landscape. This is a canyon formed by the Yanshan orogeny, with the deepest depth reaching 400 meters. The two sides of the Grand Canyon are almost vertical cliffs. It has been raining recently, but it allows us to see the magnificent waterfall scenery. The Dabu River surges across the valley. It rushed out from the mouth of the canyon, soaring into the sky, with great momentum. Just at this moment there was sunlight, and a rainbow was seen hanging on the waterfall. From the entrance of Yitiantian, go down the slippery and steep stone stairs to the bottom of the valley, where you will see deep pools like emerald jade and breathtaking waterfalls. Due to the heavy rain, the water volume increased greatly, the waterfall was rushing rapidly, water vapor rose, and mist lingered, just like "a waterfall dropping three thousand feet straight down, as if the Milky Way falls from the sky." Our original plan was to walk up to the No. 3-1 viewing platform to get a close look at the waterfall, but the road was closed due to heavy rain. We instead climbed the Sky Ladder and walked along the kilometer-long corridor back to the valley entrance square. #GrandCanyon #GuangdongTourism

The forest coverage rate here is over 95%. The average temperature is 22℃. The waterfalls in the valley compete with each other, which is cool and pleasant. The valley is clear and spring, the forest is dense, and the water is gurgling. The water splashed by the waterfall rises up like rain and mist, floating in the wind and floating in the sky, bringing bursts of coolness. Hiking in this environment full of negative oxygen ions is perfect. The rippling blue water is clear and transparent, and the colorful stones on the shore form a flat pebble beach. Perhaps this is the best place to get close to nature. The clear water flows down from a cliff about 20 meters high, flowing and graceful, splashing and surrounded by mist. When the weather is sunny, rainbows of various shapes will appear. The 1,368 stone steps built against the cliff cascade down from top to bottom and are known as the "Thousand-Step Ladder to Heaven." Looking up from the bottom of the valley, the ladder to heaven seems to reach straight into the sky, and the hanging rock wall looks even steeper. 《Itinerary》Gather at Longxi Exit A at 07:00, Depart on time at 07:10. 07:40 Meet at Exit A of Canton Tower Subway Station, We set off on time at 07:50.

Guangdong Shaoguan hides a peerless beauty, acclaimed as 'the most beautiful canyon in Guangdong', with a total length of 15 kilometers and a maximum depth of over 400 meters. It is also known as the Guangdong Grand Canyon! It is a spectacular canyon scenic area, famous for its majestic canyon landforms and crystal-clear rivers. 🚗Transportation: You can take a high-speed train🚄 directly to Shaoguan East Station, then take a taxi to the destination. Or you can drive there by yourself🚘, which is about 2.5-3 hours from Guangzhou to Ruyuan. After getting off the highway, there are eighteen bends on the mountain road, passing through many farms and bamboo forests🎋. It's very comfortable to open the windows. ⛰Sightseeing: The tickets🎫 for the Grand Canyon are unified, but they are 10 yuan more expensive on weekends. The Grand Canyon is divided into three routes. The 1️⃣st one is the full 5km journey. The 2️⃣nd is a short cross of about 2km. The 3️⃣rd route is a leisure line suitable for bringing children. Since you're here, of course, you should challenge the full route. The towering and precipitous canyon and the emerald river snuggle up to each other like a fairyland scroll🏞. Along the way, there are many waterfalls and pools, with crystal-clear spring water reflecting the rocks and trees, it's like being in a fairyland. Yunmen Mountain⛰ is also a must-visit place, as a national 4A-level tourist attraction, Yunmen Mountain is loved by tourists for its steep terrain and long history and culture. The cloud-top waterfall, nearly 200 meters high, falls straight down with a majestic and deafening force. High-altitude glass bridge: Standing on the fully transparent glass bridge, it feels like floating in the air, with a sense of walking in the clouds☁️. Little tips: There are quite a few mosquitoes🦟 in the mountains, so be sure to protect yourself against them when hiking. It's a good idea to bring some dry food🍪 and water to replenish your energy. Wear anti-slip shoes, as the full journey through the Grand Canyon is somewhat challenging, with some paths not so easy to navigate.

Visit the Grand Canyon -- in China! Ruyuan Canyon in Shaoguan, Guangdong, also known as the Grand Canyon of Guangdong or Ruyuan Grand Canyon, is a massive gorge in Ruyuan County, a landscape completely unlike southern Guangdong. The head of the canyon features an impressive waterfall and there are many smaller falls throughout the area. Climb down a seeming eternity of steps to reach the bottom of the canyon and view the waterfall, and then hike downstream and along a box canyon before climbing back up to the top. The whole route should take 2-3 hours for fit hikers, but it's worth taking it easy and enjoying the stunning scenery. Except for the climbs down and up the gorgeside, it's an easy walk. Parts of the park have a bit of an abandoned feeling; besides there being few other hikers the day I went (mid-week) some of the park facilities are getting old. For example a funicular railway up the gorge side no longer operates (the stairs next to it are also closed now) but that was fine for me as I prefer as natural a setting as possible. There's a performance several times a day in which two stunt artists ride a bike across a tightrope over the canyon. It's well worth watching (and a bit terrifying.) There is a bus to the park from Ruyuan town (which is accessible from Shaoguan by bus), but it would be much easier to get here by car, in which case it would be an easy day trip from Guangzhou or Shenzhen. There are many other places to hike around Shaoguan, so it would also make a great weekend trip. #qingmingtravel #urbanexplorer #lightthecity #hiking #waterfall #canyon #mountains #views #photography #guangdong #shaoguan #china
