Below the northwestern cliff edge of Huangshizhai, six oval-shaped stone pillars over 200 meters tall stand in a north-south line within a valley about 2,000 meters long between Huangshizhai and Yuanjiajie. The pillars are similar in size and spacing, and their tops are all flat platforms, resembling a row of bridge piers awaiting a bridge deck. The two middle piers are slightly taller, with the ones on either side gradually decreasing in height. The tops of the pillars can be connected to form an arc, with a magnificent momentum. Below the piers, the riverbed is dry, with jagged rocks and sparse trees, appearing ancient, wild, and desolate. On rainy days, clouds and mist fill the valley like raging waves in a river, and the piers appear and disappear intermittently. If it happens to be sunny in the east and rainy in the west, a brilliant and magnificent rainbow arches from north to south, forming a wondrous spectacle of dual beauty with the piers.
