Hidden Wonders China Antelope Canyon and Ancient Ice Cave

Leave the busy streets of Xi'an behind and discover two dramatically different natural wonders of northern China on a compact two-day journey from Xi’an. This tour combines the narrow sandstone passages of Ganquan Yucha Grand Canyon with the frozen underground scenery of the Mount Yun Ice Cave Group, offering travelers two completely different geological experiences in one trip. Walk through the narrow, wave-shaped canyon walls of Ganquan Yucha Grand Canyon, where changing sunlight creates striking colors and shadows, then continue to Mount Yun Scenic Area for an overnight stay at Novotel Linfen Mount Yun, an Accor hotel surrounded by mountain scenery. The following day, explore the illuminated chambers of the ancient ice cave group and see ice pillars, icicles, frozen curtains and ice falls that remain visible even during warmer seasons. Private transportation from and back to Xi’an makes this remote route easier and more comfortable to experience.
