Zhangye Colorful Danxia: The Magical World at Dusk

Coordinates: Zhangye Colorful Danxia, Gansu The first time I stood in front of the Colorful Danxia, I held my breath. The scene before me was like paint splashed by nature, so dazzling that it felt unreal. Some describe it as "God's overturned palette," while others say it resembles the "surface of Mars," but only by standing here can you feel the magnificent beauty that strikes the soul. 🌄 Stunning Moments of the Colorful Danxia Sunset: The setting sun coats the Danxia with a layer of gold, and the red, orange, yellow, and purple rock layers flow in the light and shadow, like burning flames. After the Rain: The colors of the rock walls are more intense after the rain, like an oil painting that has been repainted, with full saturation. Aerial View: From a high altitude, the continuous colorful hills undulate like waves, as if the earth has been splashed by an abstract artist. 📌 Practical Guide Best Time: 1–2 hours before sunset, when the light is softest and the colors are most intense. Best Viewing Platform: No. 4 Viewing Platform (Colorful Screen), with the most open view, suitable for shooting panoramic views. Outfit Suggestions: Solid colors (black, white, earth tones) are more photogenic; avoid clothes with complex patterns. Note: Drones are prohibited in the scenic area. If you need aerial photography, you need to report in advance. 💡 Fun Facts The formation of this magical landform has undergone 24 million years of deposition and weathering. - Red comes from iron oxide, yellow is mudstone, and green comes from copper-bearing minerals. - Every line is the touch of time, and nature is the greatest artist!
