The Zhangye Danxia landforms, known as China's Rainbow Mountains, represent one of Earth's most spectacular geological displays. These formations began as sedimentary layers deposited during the Cretaceous period 135-65 million years ago, consisting of red sandstone and mineral-rich conglomerates. The vibrant colors come from various mineral oxides - iron creating the reds and oranges, while other elements produce the yellow and green hues. Tectonic uplift raised these layers from ancient seabed
