The autumn scenery of the Eighteen Whirlpools in Pan'an

The Eighteen Whirlpools scenic area is now a national AAAA level scenic spot, located in the northeastern plateau of Pan'an County, adjacent to the Nineteen Peaks of Xinchang Chuan Yan. The scenic area covers an area of 15 square kilometers, with an average altitude of over 500 meters. The strong mountain formation movement, intense terrain cutting, and long-term erosion by running water and glaciers have created the spectacle of the "Grand Canyon", which is the most intact glacial pothole in the country so far.
