The unique clay forest in Zhada County of Nagri Prefecture, western Tibet Autonomous Region, September 4, 2009, photo from Xinhua. Entering into Zhada County, the clay forest standing on both sides of Xiangquan River extends more than 175 kilometers. The clay forest is formed by erosion, where the sediment of lakes and rivers, mainly composed by sandstone and clay, have formed into various shapes. Enjoying from different angles, you can see different wonderful sceneries. Some look like warriors defending the mountaintop, some like thousands of horses galloping, standing there quietly.
