Chishui, Zunyi, Guizhou, China
A town of about 300,000 people in the northwestern part of Guizhou province, just on the border with Sichuan. It’s a gateway to incredible scenic spots of natural biodiversity. Red rock landforms known as “China Danxia”, can be found in several different places, and all of them belong to UNESCO world heritage sites.
To plan a trip in this area, and visit everything properly, you need at least two days. Danxia landforms are divided into eastern and western sector. Western sector is larger and involves a national park, and various scenic spots on the way to the Chishui great falls. The most famous spot in eastern sector is so called “Buddha rock”, but besides it there is a bamboo forest and few more smaller scenic areas.
