Recording my trip to the Yuanmou Wuma Tu Lin Scenic Area
Yuanmou Wuma Tu Lin Scenic Area is geographically located in Wuma Township of Yuanmou County, about forty kilometers from the county town, and is also known as the Hutiao Beach Tu Lin. This scenic area is a group of columnar landforms shaped by earthen deposits, named for its distant forest-like appearance, and is a great natural wonder, looking very magnificent.

Yuanmou Earth Forest
Many people may not know much about the Yuanmou Earth Forest. Geologically speaking:
Earth forests generally appear in basins or valleys, with the Yuanmou Earth Forest being the most typical, reflecting the changes in ancient geography and the process of geomorphological development.
The Yuanmou Earth Forest is a wonderful natural wonder in China and even the world. After millions of years of crustal movement, the god of wind and rain has carved the land of Yuanmou into various strange shapes.
Many photographers use this place as their creative base, and it also attracts many geologists and famous directors to visit and take pictures. Zhang Yimou filmed 'Riding Alone for Thousands of Miles' here, and later Chen Kaige also filmed 'The Promise' here. Therefore, the Yuanmou Earth Forest has become a popular tourist spot.

The filming location of The Lost Tomb
Today, I came to the filming location of many movies, Wuma Tuolin (Hutiao Beach Tuolin) in Yuanmou County, Yunnan Province. Because I live in Yuanmou County, it takes about 40 minutes to drive to the destination, half of which is on the highway and half on the national road. It is recommended to drive by yourself, as public transportation is not very convenient. The ticket price is 70. If you don't want to walk inside the entrance, you can take a battery car up, 10 yuan per person, and the tour time is about two hours.
The landscape here is very distinctive, completely a masterpiece of nature. Apart from the pedestrian walkway, there is no artificial carving. It is a good place to take pictures and check in. It is easy to produce big movies, especially at sunset and sunrise. Unfortunately, we didn't have the right time this time.
