中国丹霞

中国丹霞是中国境内由陆相红色砂砾岩在内生力量（包括隆起）和外来力量（包括风化和侵蚀）共同作用下形成的各种地貌景观的总称。这一遗产包括中国西南部亚热带地区的6处遗址。它们的共同特点是壮观的红色悬崖以及一系列侵蚀地貌，包括雄伟的天然岩柱、岩塔、沟壑、峡谷和瀑布等。这里跌宕起伏的地貌，对保护包括约400种稀有或受威胁物种在内的亚热带常绿阔叶林和许多动植物物起到了重要作用。

China Danxia is the name given in China to landscapes developed on continental red terrigenous sedimentary beds influenced by endogenous forces (including uplift) and exogenous forces (including weathering and erosion). The inscribed site comprises six areas found in the sub-tropical zone of south-west China. They are characterized by spectacular red cliffs and a range of erosional landforms, including dramatic natural pillars, towers, ravines, valleys and waterfalls. These rugged landscapes have helped to conserve sub-tropical broad-leaved evergreen forests, and host many species of flora and fauna, about 400 of which are considered rare or threatened.
