The canyon is nearly north-south. The ancient coins in the canyon are steep and steep. A typical view of the Grand Canyon. The alluvial gullies formed by the snow and rainwater flowing down from the Tianshan Mountains through the soil here carved out these strange landscapes on the valley walls. The canyon starts from the foot of the mountain and forms distinct layers of soil on the grassland. But the colors are mainly gray and black. There is a lot of snow in the canyon, but when passing through these soils, the water with sediment becomes very turbid.

Highlights:
The Anjihai Grand Canyon is located in the west of Anjihai Town, Shawan County. It originates from the Tianshan Mountains. Its special geological landforms have been featured in National Geographic magazine. The canyon here is breathtaking, the cliffs stand, and the bottom of the valley is up to 100 meters deep. Standing on the edge of the cliff, the cold wind surges straight up from the bottom of the ravine, making people tremble in the bottom of the ditch, and the legs are soft and numb. It is worth tourists from all over the world. The Grand Canyon has landscapes such as Hongshan, Daiya, Qingfeng, Green Island, and clear water. It has different scenery throughout the year, just like a ribbon flying at the foot of the northern slope of Tianshan Mountain, becoming the most colorful Grand Canyon in the canyon group in China. Known as "China's Grand Canyon of Colorado". The landforms on both sides of the river are different. The west bank is the Gobi, which is relatively flat, and the east bank is the rolling hills, which form a sharp contrast and give people a unique feeling.
