Located on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, the roof of the world, the Yarlung Zangbo Grand Canyon has a total length of 504 kilometers, a maximum depth of 6,009 kilometers, and an average depth of more than 2,200 kilometers.
It is indisputably the deepest and largest Grand Canyon in the world. Since the discovery of the Brahmaputra Grand Canyon, scientists have been curious about it because it hides many unsolved mysteries.
It is said that in the Grand Canyon lived wild men, who were tall and had brown or black hair all over their bodies, deep-set eyes, and were able to walk upright. However, scientists have not found any trace of them after many field visits.
In addition, there is a mysterious legend about the Yarlung Zangbo Grand Canyon. The area is covered with snow all year round, traffic is blocked, the environment is dangerous and the conditions are harsh, and food is scarce.
How do people survive and thrive in such an environment? There is an even more terrifying legend that there is a terrifying tree in the Grand Canyon that not only attacks humans and animals, but also entangles it so tightly that no matter how much you struggle, you can't escape.
The tree then secretes an anesthetic substance that paralyzes its prey and eventually turns it into nutrients that nourish the tree's growth. According to legend, the tree seems to eat people or animals, as if it had become a sperm.
Although scientists have ventured to the Grand Canyon several times to collect specimens, no evidence has been found to prove the authenticity of this legend.
It is said that there is a legend of the Rainbow Waterfall in the Brahmaputra Grand Canyon. In the twenties of the twentieth century, a British explorer named Ward visited the Grand Canyon and discovered a beautiful waterfall.
Above the waterfall, a brilliant rainbow stretched across the sky, hence the name of the waterfall Rainbow Falls. It is worth mentioning that not only Ward has seen Rainbow Falls, but the American Bailey also claims to have seen it in the canyon.
However, it is puzzling that for a long time, Rainbow Falls seemed to disappear.
In 1988, a Chinese expedition discovered a dry wall in the Brahmaputra Grand Canyon. After careful investigation, scientists speculated that this may be the trace left by the waterfall, and it is most likely the Rainbow Falls seen by Ward and Bailey.
Experts believe that the formation of Rainbow Falls may have been caused by the movement of the earth's crust. In the 50s of the last century, there was a big ** here. As for why the waterfall dried up, it may be because the landslide blocked the waterfall from the upstream water source.
The beauty of the Brahmaputra Grand Canyon is changeable, each season has its own unique charm, coupled with the mysterious legends that have been circulated, making it a tourist attraction that domestic and foreign tourists yearn for.
In addition, scientists have been exploring it.
