Timer:2024-05-08
Dahebian Gorge
It extends from Xiaoshancheng to Chuantoushan with the cliff erecting at both banks. Stratiform carbonatites are overlapped to form grand and significant Chuantoushan and its steep cliff (it is cuesta extending for about 5 km with the height of 300-500 m). At the same time, many independent and small caves are developing on the palisades at both banks (about 30-45m long and 8-15m high), and the caves are not found to have any connection trace to each other.
