An “egg-laying” cliff （產(chǎn)蛋巖）in Southwest China has attracted（吸引）a lot of interest online recently.

The cliff, in Sandu County, Guizhou Province, has many egg-shaped rocks sitting on it. Most rocks are the size of a football, while smaller ones are still half inside the cliff, with only parts of them standing out.

According to the local government, the cliff is in a place of interest that has been open to public since 2010. It is about 100 meters long and five meters high. Local people said that some “eggs” fall off the cliff every 30 years, “l(fā)ike a hen laying eggs.”

At the bottom of the cliff lie many rocks that fell down in the past. Most of them are round or egg-shaped with a diameter（直徑）of up to 50 centimeters. The green rocks are hard.

“In the past, people thought the rocks were symbols of good luck and took them home,” said the local people. The largest rock weighs about 300 kg, with a diameter of 60 centimeters. It’s called “the king of eggs.”

It’s said that Guizhou was once a large ocean, and that the rock eggs could have been produced by animals from the ocean. But nobody is sure about how they are formed.
