The canyon area at the lower reaches of the right bank tributary of Yangtze River, Wujiang River, was influenced by the different distribution of carbonate rocks and sandstones, at last, there formed the natural landscape of Karst. It has bred three individual Karst systems, including the first cave in the world- Furong Cave, the biggest natural bridge group as well as the Houpingtiankeng, all of which are the rarities of China.
Houping Sinkhole

Houpingtiankeng is a complete Karst system containing different period of development. The most classic one is the Jingkou Tiankeng, of perfect pattern and oval entrance. The depth of the Tiankeng ranges from 295.3 to 195.3 meters. Looking down from the entrance, you may see bold cliff with no end, being much too spectacular. Looking up in the bottom of the Tiankeng, it just likes sitting in a well and look at the heaven--limited outlook, making you feel free from things of the world and far from the madding crowd. By now, the natural landscape is in savagery, haven't been developed yet
