It has the most tropical species and the most prominent features of valleys and rain forests. It is the model area for studying Danxia biological filiation, solitary and the tropical island effect among Danxia landforms. Mount Danxia is in line with the standards (VII) (VIII) (IX) (X) for selecting world natural heritage.
