Do you know about Huangya Cave in Shanxi?

Huangya Cave is located within the territory of Licheng County, Shanxi Province, situated in the middle part of the Taihang Mountains with an altitude mostly between 1500-2000 meters. The immense energy produced by the relative movement of the Earth's crust has carved out ravines in the mountains composed of hard red quartz sandstone and shale layers, creating continuous steep cliffs that stretch for dozens of kilometers, rising abruptly from the ground and piercing the sky. This unique and spectacular landscape is comparable to the world-famous Grand Canyon in the United States in its own unique way. Moreover, the mountains, terrain, and the texture of the rocks here are quite suitable for rock climbing.
