Tianshan Tomur Grand Canyon: A Magnificent Farewell to the Aksu Trip
Setting off from the Bozidun scenic area, after an hour's drive, we finally arrived at the long-awaited Tianshan Tomur Grand Canyon—the last stop of our Aksu trip.
The Grand Canyon, in Uyghur meaning 'thrilling and mysterious', is not only a vital passageway to the ancient Muzart trail that connected the northern and southern Tianshan Mountains, but it is also the largest and most aesthetically valuable red-bed canyon between the mountains, hailed as the 'King of Canyons'.
Spanning about 25 kilometers east to west and 20 kilometers north to south, it consists of 3 main valleys in the shape of the Chinese character '川', along with 12 tributaries and hundreds of smaller gullies. The richness of its geological features is rare in the world, including canyon landforms, aeolian landforms, fluvial landforms, tectonic landforms, and rock salt landforms, which together create a multitude of landscapes such as the Rainbow Mountains, the Poplar Twins, and Hero Valley.
Within the canyon, ravines crisscross, filled with red cliffs and a variety of uniquely shaped stone peaks and pillars. Especially the 'Source of Life' sightseeing spot, where winding wooden stairs lead to a high vantage point overlooking the peaks. Standing on the viewing platform, it feels like traveling through thousands of years, witnessing the earth being sculpted into such a masterpiece of natural art.
The unthawed spring snow covers the vast mountains, adding poetry and grandeur to the Grand Canyon. The Tormod Ecological Museum at the entrance of the scenic area is a tribute to the history and nature of this magical land. It reminds us to cherish and pass on this unique natural and cultural heritage.
