Yinyuan Stone
阴元石
A rock formation that echoes the Yangyuan Stone of Danxia Mountain. Its grooves closely resemble female anatomy, and it is known as the “Mother Stone.”
Yinyuan Stone stands near the Xianglong Lake visitor area of Danxia Mountain. It is a red cliff about 10 metres high. Water erosion has carved a hollow that strikingly resembles the female anatomy, and together with the Yangyuan Stone it forms the “Yin and Yang Wonder Stones” of Danxia Mountain. The viewing platform is about a 15-minute walk from the parking area and can be combined with Xianglong Lake and Wolong Ridge in a half-day trip. Xianglong Lake can be explored by small boat, and its shape resembles a dragon. Admission is included in the Danxia Mountain entrance ticket, and the park bus serves the area.
