Taining Geology Park, UNESCO Global Geopark in Taining County, China
The geological formations within the park include steep cliffs, deep valleys, and intricate rock structures formed through millions of years of tectonic activities.
The area contains the Ming Dynasty Minister Mansion from 1368-1644, along with ancient city walls and gates that date back to the town's establishment in 958.
Local communities maintain their traditions through performances at historical venues while engaging in conservation efforts to protect the geological heritage.
