Yuntaishan Mountain Global Geopark is located in the north of Jiaozuo City, along the southern foothills of Taihangshan Mountains. With a total area of approximately 556 square kilometers, the geopark is characterized by its rifting tectonics, and spectacular landscapes formed by hydrodynamic process, in combination with its ecological and cultural scenery. The geopark consists of a series of geological relics that have their unique scientific significance and aesthetic value as records of the local geological history. Formed against the general background of a rifting system, the Yuntai Landform represents the typical geological heritage of the neotectonic movement taking place some 23 million years ago. On the stable North China Continental Craton, a sequence of continental sedimentary rocks is developed as the record of epicontinental sedimentation from Mesoproterozoic and Paleozoic marine environment, especially epicontinental marine environment.
