This newspaper (Reporter Zhang Ao, Correspondent Zhao Meng) Yesterday, the 2024 Tourism and Culture Festival of Yanchi Town, Mentougou District was held in the Nanshiyang Grand Canyon Scenic Area. On the same day, the Nanshiyang Grand Canyon officially resumed business to the public and launched three immersive hiking routes of nature, geology and humanities. At the same time, the 9-day first Canyon Life Festival also kicked off. Visitors can participate in theme day activities such as leisure day, outdoor day, pet day and drama day, and experience the new experience brought by cultural tourism projects among the green waters and green mountains.

Nanshiyang Grand Canyon has rich natural landscapes, geological resources and cultural resources. It is famous for "one gorge, nine valleys, eighteen bays and seventy-two nodes". Points such as Yixiantian, Heilongtan and Qingtianyizhu are representative landscapes here. Walking in the canyon, you can feel the tortuous and deep road. The mountain composed of sedimentary rocks, metamorphic rocks and igneous rocks is even more steep.

In the natural experience route launched this time, tourists will start a journey of "seeking light marks" in the form of postcard check-ins and appreciate the representative landscapes in the canyon; the geological route is led by doctoral students from the University of Geology, who explain geological knowledge along the way; the cultural route uses immersive interactive script games to allow tourists to experience the historical heritage of Nanshiyang and the cultural elements of Liao and Jin Dynasties while playing.
