The wind-eroded mountain landscape of Ashigong Gorge is located in Ashigong Canyon, on the northern bank of the Yellow River, 34 kilometers from the county town. The long, narrow valley begins beneath the cliffs of Yangjuanwan and is traversed by a river that winds like a silver ribbon. Towering mountains rise on both sides to the west, their peaks soaring into the clouds — some flaming red, others deep indigo. Over millions of years, the cliffs have been eroded by wind into a variety of unique shapes: some resemble the weathered faces of elderly people, while others look like the horns, whiskers, or noses of dragons. Each formation has its own striking character and beauty. Coupled with the howling gorge winds and the roaring river, the scenery is both majestic and awe-inspiring, offering a special charm when viewed from afar. Vehicles come and go, year after year. Guid County enjoys convenient transportation and boasts five major advantageous resources: agriculture, animal husbandry, hydropower, forestry, and tourism. With thousand-fold carved cliffs, we join our hands in welcome, eagerly inviting friends and business partners from all over to come invest and develop here.
