Colorful Sand Forest in Luliang of Yunnan

Foreigners may have heard about various forests such as tropical forest, stone forest and primitive forest and so on when they come to study in China. But they may not know there is a sand forest in Yunnan. The Colorful Sand Forest is located in the east of Luliang County. It is on the foot of Yufeng Mountain and is about 18 kilometers away from the county. Some of the foreigners who study in China may be told that there are totally 108 named scenic spots spread in the Y-shaped valley. The total size of it is 180 hectares.

The Colorful Sand Forest was weathered and denuded in the long process, forming the shapes of mountains. If you have the chance to go there when you learn Chinese language in China, you will see the main colors are yellow, white, red and grey. Some other colors like black, green and blue are mixed. With the changes of seasons, the colors change accordingly. When you study in China, you may have heard that many teleplays are filed here such as the Three Kingdoms. It also remains some sculpture works from the sculpture festival.
