The Magical and Enchanting World of Earth: Yuanmou Earth Forest

One of Yunnan's "Three Forests": Yuanmou Earth Forest Stepping into it, you'll feel as if you're on another planet 🌍, or perhaps walking alone at the edge of a desert, a magical and indescribable experience. 🌟Highlights: The tall and imposing earth pillars resemble ancient castles, palaces, pagodas, giant swords piercing the sky, sharp ridges across the land, eagles about to take flight, galloping horses… Their shapes are varied and vivid, a testament to the wonders of nature. The earth pillars are covered with dense mica, quartz, and other minerals that reflect sunlight, adding a dazzling array of colors to the already captivating landscape. 📍Address: Yuanmou County, Chuxiong Yi Autonomous Prefecture, Yunnan Province. 🚗Transportation: Navigation: Yuanmou Earth Forest 🕙Opening Hours: 7:00–19:00 💰Ticket Price: 70 📌Tips: It's best to visit in the morning or evening when the light is soft, resulting in better photos with distinct layers and richer colors. The strong afternoon sun is not ideal for sightseeing. For seniors or children, we recommend taking the sightseeing bus from the top of the mountain down, a comfortable one-way route.
