China Changbaishan Mountain Tour to Explore Mysterious Volcanic Valley

During the tour, walking into the inner heart of Changbaishan Mountain, we surprisingly found it is a piece of virgin forest the human civilization never set foot in, as if the woodcut pictures absolutely beautiful scenery, the nature once again demonstrates its magical power.

We had not yet aftertaste from the beautiful Tianchi view, the gorge and forest in depth of Changbaishan Mountain started to tempt us. Entering into the best preserved virgin forest area in Chinese ecosystem, we were shocked by the abundant and gorgeous inner world of Changbaishan Mountain, it has the most abundant wildlife resources in the northern half of the Eurasian continent, and the strange landforms created by volcanic activity is more impressive.
The valley lava forest is located at 20 kilometers west Tianchi, got off and went to the depth of jungle along the cliff. The virgin forest here is a typical representative of the northeast of the highest mountains and the northern half of Eurasia mountain ecosystems.

Arrived at the edge of valley, suddenly in front of nature draws a magical and grand valley windrow, almost 300 meters in width, as if the fairy dragon in clouds, difficult to see both. We cannot help to think of the recent aerial Reunion Island, topography is so steep. Looking down, cliffs on both sides, forming a slope valley in seventy to eighty degrees. Mountains below reveals the real skin, top is a red-ocher or brown steep slope formed by volcanic ash, following is the grey or green forest formed by slag.

Discovery of the ‘Grand Canyon’. A team of investigation in Changbaishan Mountain to investigate the damage degree of forest after an attack of wind in three days, they occasionally discovered this little-known Grand Canyon which was latterly named Changbaishan Grand Canyon or Jinjiang Grand Canyon.

The Grand Canyon is more than 70 kilometers in length and 160 meters in depth. Such a large area of lava forests is not only in the country for the first time found that is rare in the world. Along the way, the lava centrums in tens of meters are in different poses and with different expressions. Some are independent, some are groups side by side, and especially the shape of a camel peaks, lifelike. These lava forest like a stone and as a soil, it seems hard, will be able to win a hand breaking, and seemingly soft stand stormy wind and rain but they are constantly changing hundreds of years, year after year. Perhaps a period time later, each sculpture more or less something happens, the nature is also hardly working!

Someone say the Grand Canyon is the Grand Canyon Colorado in China, but I thought it is necessary to relate to the foreign things. Compared, the ‘natural volcanic lava bonsai garden’ is also very appreciate. Because of the short time tour, canyon is still a mystery full of unknown and expectation.
