The high slope is a horst-type rock uplift. Surrounded by deep valleys, there is a mountain in the middle. Up the hill, there are two stones standing opposite each other at the entrance, which are shaped like doors, so they are called Shimen. Shimen is a Miao village, with a simple gate. The entrance climbs the mountain, the top faces west, and the foot overlooks Huaxi and Guiyang. On the precipice boulder, there are four characters engraved on the cliff with double hooks, which witnessed the suppression of Miao ancestors by the ruling class in Ming Dynasty.
Entering the canyon from the top to the north, the rock is reddish, which is called Hongyan Chong Canyon. The valley is 10 km long, with cliffs on both sides, bushes and vines, monkeys playing, dozens of waterfalls hanging and flowing water.

After crossing the overpass, there is a hall on the right 100 step. The curtain stone nearly 100 meters high hangs upside down and clings to the cave wall. The thickness of each curtain leaf is 65,438+00 cm, alternating with 65,438+00 cm. Milky white, crystal clear, tap with an object. Different curtains and different scales, the whole cave hall echoes endlessly. There are many stalagmites in the hall, including a giant plant, which is dozens of meters high and white layers are stacked straight. There is a valley under the hall, overlooking the valley, with stones such as hippos, turtles and dolphins, all of which have been accumulated by magma dripping for tens of thousands of years. Many stalagmites on the ground and stalactites hanging from the top of the cave have either been connected or will be connected at close range. In one place, it has been connected into a jade column and accidentally moved underground. The jade column is folded in the middle and divided into two sections.
Go back to the overpass, cross the mountain to the north, and Hongyan Canyon is at your feet. The valley is more than 400 meters deep, overlooking the whole valley. The valley is surrounded by greenery, and there are several huts in the forest. The woodcutter's song answers in the valley.

Its stone is ethereal and transparent, and its ink color is blue and black. There is a huge stone that looks like a pen and a comb. Its shape is divided into two branches, and the lower part is as small as a shrine base. Wandering, the wind shakes. There is a cave under the stone forest of Qingfeng, and a large stream of spring water gurgles out and falls on the rocks within 30 meters. The cliff is as empty as eaves, with mountain bikes and water mills. It has been grinding rice and flour for decades to benefit the masses.
