Pingshan Grand Canyon, Gansu, China
4.5 (26 reviews) Spent 2-3 hours Ranking #2 in Zhangye Canyons
Amazing View
You can take a bus from the west bus station at 9:45 about CNY 15 but not positive and it will drop you at the park entrance. The return bus leaves between 16:00 and 16:30 but whatever time it is, you will have plenty of time in the park. We did the main bus/walking tour although they have a new part for over CNY 300 they tried to sell us. The food stalls near the park entrance were well priced and we had a nice lunch before entering. The park is amazing and I highly recommend!

China's Colorado
Smaller scale version of Colorado, this canyon is located about 60 km north east of Zhangye. It is a relatively new attraction as there are fewer visitors. To fully appreciate the scenery, you need to go down into the canyon rather than looking it from the top. Their website is www.pshdxg.com in Chinese with photos.

Magnificent Natural Rock Formations!
Compared to the Danxia mountains, this area only takes half that time to cover (1.5 hours). Make sure to go dow to the canyon floor to experience the valley! theres a cat ladder course that will take u back to the surface again, offering a little difference experience to the alternative roundabout way to return to the road levels. Overall a good experience. We hired a taxi (4 of us) and the driver took us to Binggou Daxia / Qicai Daxia / Pingshan Canyon for under RMB600. We saved all the time we could, for Qicai Danxia, which took us 4hours. This is one of the must-see attractions in this region.
