Litang Grassland

Litang Grassland is called Letong in Tibetan, which means flat grass dam like a bronze mirror. It is named after the vast grass dam in the territory. The terrain is gently undulating, with luxuriant water and grass, and flocks of cattle and sheep. It is a spectacular sight. It is also the hometown of Dolma, the lover of Tsangyang Gyatso, the most representative folk poet in Tibet.

kazila mountain

Kazila Mountain, 4718 meters above sea level. Because of the higher altitude, there are fewer trees, mainly alpine meadows. Looking at the mountains here, there are many mountains, one layer farther than the other, and each layer lighter than the previous layer, all the way to the horizon. It really feels like walking on the "Heavenly Road".

Rabbit Mountain

Rabbit Mountain is 4,696 meters above sea level. The two rocks stand like rabbit ears. Hares often appear in the mountain. The viewing platform has a great view for taking pictures. The melting of glaciers at the ancient glacier site has formed dozens of kilometers of dark stone beaches. The cracks in the stones are filled with dry black and brown shrubs, creating a unique scenery.

If a local Tibetan warmly invites you for a picnic, don’t be shy! Please enjoy experiencing Tibetan specialties and cultural fusion together!

sister lake

The two blue and clear plateau lakes are closely linked to each other, like gems from heaven, embedded in this desolate mountain range, holy and flawless, and like the tears of the compassion of the Buddha dripping down to the earth, crystal clear.
