Danxia Wonder

God’s spilled palette! Zhangye Danxia Rainbow 3-hour walking guide 🎨 🌈 Rainbow mountain strike! This secret spot, rated by National Geographic as China’s most beautiful Danxia, is breathtaking at first sight! The rolling hills look like a rainbow cake split by a giant axe, every snap is wallpaper-worthy! 📍 Address: Nantai Village, Nijia Ying Town, Linze County, Zhangye City 🚗 Transportation tips: Recommended to charter a car or self-drive (about 40 minutes from the city), sightseeing buses connect all viewing platforms ⏰ Best times to visit: 1️⃣ Sunrise session (5:30-7:00): View golden-red ridges from Viewing Platform 4 2️⃣ Sunset session (after 18:00): Capture the magical light and shadow of the "Colorful Ao River" from Viewing Platform 2 📸 Must-shoot spots: 1️⃣ Hongxia Platform (No. 4): Aerial view! Wave patterns + checkerboard landforms 2️⃣ Qicai Xianyuan Platform (No. 2): Naked-eye 3D effect, recommended to wear solid color clothes ⚠️ Tips to avoid pitfalls: • Colors are less vivid on cloudy days! Check the weather forecast in advance • Sightseeing buses run a one-way loop; if you miss a stop, you have to ride from the start again • Drones are not allowed! (You can pay the park to take photos for you) 🍜 Nearby food: Beef rice (Zhangye specialty breakfast) Cuoyu noodles (handmade noodles with lamb soup)
