tourist attraction.
According to a report, more than 3.7 million tourists visited the spot in 2023,
with 42 percent choosing camel rides.
The quick increase in tourists needs more local camel herders (牧民).Zhao,

camels. The quick development of tourism has brought hope for the villagers.

【2025浙江嘉兴期末】Are you a nature lover? Then you must visit Zhangye
UNESCO Global Geopark (张掖世界地质公园) in China. It’s recognized
(认可) by UNESCO as one of the best geoparks in the world. Here, you can
see the beauty of the rainbow hills.

just like a rainbow. There is little grass growing on the land. When you see the
hills from above, it’s like you’re looking at rainbows painted on the ground.

You may wonder how these colourful hills came to be. Millions of years
ago, this area was under a lake. Over time, rivers brought in sand and stones
with different kinds of metal elements (元素).These were left in layers (层)
on the bottom of the lake. Some layers were red, some were yellow, and others
turned purple or blue. Later, as the climate became colder and drier, the lake
dried up. Then, something amazing happened. The underground land began to rise
up and push against each other. The layers of sandstone were lifted higher and
higher. Through years of wind, sun, and rain, finally they formed the colourful
hills we see today.

From June to September is the most wonderful time to visit the rainbow
hills. The mornings and evenings are cooler than the hot days, giving you the
