Why the Rock Surface Is So Rugged?

The rock surface of Naigu Stone Forest is quite rough and unsmooth, looks like relief sculpture or pictograph. This phenomenon is called “differential dissolution”. Because the rock is not homogeneously composed, when eroded by water, the pale grey limestone recesses and the dark grey dolomitic limestone stands out as it is more resistant to water dissolution, resulting in this very rugged rock surface.
