Stunning geological wonder! The sheer scale of the canyon is humbling. We did the sunset hike and the colors changed from gold to deep purple – absolutely unforgettable. The park was clean and well-maintained, and the restrooms were surprisingly decent. Highly recommend spending a full day here to really soak it in.
Decent day out, but not as spectacular as I expected after seeing so many photos online. The main viewpoints are beautiful, but the hiking trails were poorly marked and we got lost twice. Also, the food options inside the park are overpriced and bland. Good if you’re in the area, but don’t go out of your way.
Worth every yuan! The glass bridge gave me chills – looking straight down into the gorge was insane. The staff were friendly and even helped us find a good spot for photos without the crowds. Great value for a day trip from Lijiang. I’d go again in autumn for the foliage colors.
Beautiful scenery but the infrastructure needs serious improvement. The viewing platforms were overcrowded and felt a bit unsafe with loose railings. Also, the shuttle bus service was unreliable – we waited almost an hour. The canyon itself is stunning, but the experience was dampened by poor management.
Absolutely breathtaking! The layered red cliffs against the deep blue sky were surreal. We took the early morning trail to avoid crowds and the light hitting the canyon walls was magical. Saw a golden eagle soaring above. A must-do for any nature lover visiting Yunnan.
