Go on a mysterious adventure in Aksu Prefecture, northwest China’s Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region!

The Tianshan Mysterious Grand Canyon, located in Kuqa County, is one of the representations of Aksu Prefecture’s natural wonders which carved into the red sandstone cliffs of the southern Tianshan Mountains. Stretching about 5.5 kilometers from east to west, it was formed by the wind and water erosion, creating a spectacular landform.

As sunlight shifts throughout the day, the canyon reveals a stunning interplay of colors, light and shadow. The ever-changing views lend the landscape an enchanting and mysterious atmosphere, making it a paradise for photography enthusiasts.
