At 30 degrees north latitude, it enjoys the reputation of the most mysterious zone on earth in academic circles.
Xiannv Rock Peak is located at the southern foot of Dabie Mountain, west of Guishan Mountain, close to the famous 30-degree north latitude line (east longitude 1 14 degrees, north latitude 3 1 degree).
Longtanchong (Canyon) Mainstream
There is a Longtan Valley under Xiannv Rock that has evolved over hundreds of millions of years, and the magnificent and beautiful cypress mouth Longtan waterfall pool is deeply hidden in this mysterious canyon.
(Longtan Chong Canyon)
(Longtan Chongshentan)
Longtan Chong Triassic consists of three waterfalls and four deep pools. It is a unique geological relic landscape, canyon water flow and glacier erosion in the central Dabie Mountains. It began in the middle and late Jurassic, about 65.438+0.6 billion years ago.
Longtanchong waterfall pool
Jurassic is a geological age, between Triassic and Cretaceous, lasting about 54 million years.
In the middle and late Jurassic, the Longtanchong Canyon was accompanied by the movement of the earth plate and the continuous uplift of the Dabie Mountains. After hundreds of millions of years of long-term erosion, surface water was continuously cut along the easily eroded parts such as geological fault zones or joints.

In the valley, there are three cliffs of Longtan, with rugged rocks and steep waterfalls.
Triassic Daao Ice Bucket in Longtanchong Gorge
During the Quaternary Great Ice Age, Longtanchong Gorge experienced at least three or four sub-ice ages, during which the climate was hot for hundreds of thousands of years.
Longtanchong Canyon Dadou Waterfall
Glaciers melt, flowing water trickles down, cliffs and waterfalls appear around Longtanchong, and debris flows are constantly generated, directly forming the canyon sedimentary (boulder) landform.
Geological landforms such as canyon stone ice bucket and lateral moraine formed by ice accumulation and ice erosion belong to Quaternary glacial landforms.
Exploration: mountains and rivers melt into Longtan, and mountains and waters breathe.
