About Fuxi Grand Canyon

The gorge runs for five kilometres and holds a group of natural waterfalls. Walkways are carried beneath overhanging cliff corridors, so much of the route is under the rock rather than on open slopes, and the view changes as the path turns through the narrow sections. The Zhengzhou tourism authority presents the red rock as material left by an ancient ocean more than a billion years ago.

The scenic area takes its name and its interpretation from the legendary ancestors Fuxi and Nüwa, and its displays are built around dragon symbolism and the Book of Changes rather than around any documented historical site. It was developed as a scenic area in two stages in 2013 and 2014.

What to look for

  • The gorge itself, running five kilometres through red sandstone.
  • The group of natural waterfalls along the floor of the gorge.
  • The cliff corridors, where the walking route passes beneath overhanging rock.
  • The red rock faces, interpreted by the city tourism authority as the remains of an ancient ocean more than a billion years old.
