What people are saying:
Yulin Hongshixia Yulin Hongshixia Ecological Park is located in the northern part of Yulin, only more than ten kilometers away from the urban area. The entire scenic area is not very big, it takes about an hour to see it. Go in the gate and follow the route. The scenic road is built along the mountain. There is a narrow section of the plank road that can only be passed by one person, with a mountain on one side and a cliff with iron railings, which is not dangerous, but it is not suitable for the elderly and children to walk.

Hongshixia is located 3 kilometers north of Yulin City and only 5 kilometers away from Yulin City. Hongshixia is also known as Xiongshixia. Redstone Gorge got its name because the mountains are all redstone. Because it is relatively close to the city, there are direct coaches.
I have been to the town of Beitai Tongwan City in Yulin a few times and are all good attractions. Hongshixia is another attraction I saw this time. The mountains here must become red, so it is called Hongshixia, inside Hongshixia There are many stone carvings on the cliffs, and many calligraphers have been carved by the mountain walls. The words mentioned here are very majestic.
Hongshixia is located 3 kilometers north of Yulin City, and only 5 kilometers away from Yulin City. The Red Rock Canyon is about 350 meters long, the east cliff is about 11.5 meters high, and the west cliff is 13 meters high. The Yuxi River in the gorge passes through the gorge and reaches the west of the city. The literati, inkmen and even military generals stationed in Yulin in ancient times liked to inscribe Hongshixia to express the pride of the frontier fortress, so Hongshixia is also a great treasure house of the calligraphy art of the Great Wall. From the content of the inscription, we can see the status of Yulin as an important town on the nine sides in ancient times. In addition, you can also appreciate the cave art of the Song and Yuan dynasties. When the sun is sunny, you can see the "Red Mountain Sunset": the gorgeous scenery of Hongshi Gorge under the sunset is like sunset. It is one of the famous "Yulin Eight Views".
Hongshixia Scenic Area is not big, you can finish the tour in an hour.
