Features: Different scenic spots and cultural relics all contain unique connotations, but these connotations require people to possess certain cultural and historical knowledge to interpret and appreciate them. As for many natural landscapes and famous mountains and rivers, only those with rich knowledge of natural sciences can better enjoy them. Here, the authors attempt to take a different approach by classifying various natural landscapes in China based on their geological formation and evolutionary history, and combining relevant human factors to explore them. This aims to deepen people's understanding of the scientific and cultural content embedded in natural landscapes, stimulate profound aesthetic emotions, and enhance the joy and of travel.
