Pingshanhu Grand Canyon is located in Zhangye, northwest China's Gansu Province. As one of the best off the beaten path adventures in the region, the grand canyon has a wild natural beauty that is both grand and beautiful.

Most of the rocks in the grand canyon are red. From the bottom to the top, rocks of different periods from Cambrian to Cenozoic are distributed with clear layers. Moreover, they contain the representative biological fossils of different geological ages, hence the grand canyon is also known as "living geologic history textbook."

Below are photos of Pingshanhu Grand Canyon which are captured recently by the filming crew of the documentary "CGTN Nature."
