Among them, the most distinctive is Obolyn Yadan, with an average altitude of 3260 meters.

It is understood that the formation of the Oboliang Yadan landform group stems from the uplift of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau and the continuous wind erosion after the ancient seabed dried up. The Obolyn Yadan landform group often generates a mysterious wind sound due to the peculiar terrain, coupled with the fact that the local rocks are rich in iron and the geomagnetism is strong, which is easy to make the compass fail, resulting in pedestrians unable to distinguish the direction and get lost, and is known as "Devil's City" by the world, also known as "the most Mars-like place on Earth".
On the mountain beams of the Oboliang Yadan landform group, there are various forms of Yadan landscape such as turtle back shape, groove ridge type, round hill type, column type, etc., forming a natural Yadan "art museum".
