The Gangzai Desert is located in Gangzai Village, Manzhou Township. Also known as the Jiupeng Desert. With an area of more than 200 hectares. In fact, the Jiupeng Desert is a sand dune formed by the accumulation of strong winds. The Jiupeng River carries sediment and accumulates at the estuary. When the tide ebbs, strong winds blow the sand back onshore and accumulate into large sand dunes as high as four or five stories. Walking here gives a special sense of the vicissitudes of the desert.
