Ehe Stone City

Ehe Stone City

Ehe Stone City is a national A-level tourist attraction.

Ehe Stone City is located in the Tuanjie Road Market in Altay City and is directly accessible by bus routes 1 and 101. Covering an area of over 1,000 square meters, it houses more than 10,000 unique stones. Ehe stones are found in the Ertix River basin, formed by the convergence of hundreds of rivers across the Altay Mountain range. Ehe stones are siliceous rocks, characterized by their hard, delicate texture, smooth and moist surface, and excellent water-worn finish. Due to the presence of various minerals in the river water, over centuries of physical and chemical processes, the stones have developed a natural patina on their surfaces, giving them an antique and elegant appearance.
