Do you know mountains that look like huge stone pillars (石柱) Many people feel surprised when they first see the special mountains in Zhangjiajie. How did these mountains form Let’s travel through time to discover their story.
Long ago, Zhangjiajie was under water. Rivers brought sand to the seabed.Year after year, new sand fell on the old sand. The sand layers (层) grew thicker (厚的) and thicker like a giant cake in the oven, with each new layer pressing the old ones tighter. The heavy new sand pushed the old sand together. After millions of years, the sand became hard rock. The hard rock was sandstone.
Then, something amazing happened. The seabed slowly ascended and became dry land. The sandstone started breaking into big pieces.
Now came nature’s artists—wind and water. Strong winds blew against the sandstone, while rainwater made small holes (洞) in the stones. Like a knife cutting cakes, rivers ran through these holes and made them deeper. These two natural artists slowly changed the sandstone into beautiful stone pillars.
But this story isn’t over. Even now, wind and rain keep making the stone pillars smaller. Every year, these pillars lose a tiny bit of their height. And then new cracks (裂缝) appear. Scientists say that after millions more years, these stone pillars will completely disappear. So we’re ▲ to see this natural wonder before it’s all gone.
