▼When I met two wolves, I couldn’t move. The wolves turned back and entered the depths of the grassland step by step. I breathed a sigh of relief. The road is relatively straight, so you can shoot when you have time to escape. If it is a winding mountain road, just run away. I met a snow leopard here last time. A few people asked me if I had any pictures. I don’t know what you think.

▼Mang Kang comes the most often. The urban reconstruction has been completed. In the past two years, the economy has been in recession, and 90% of the shops on the main roads have been demolished. Mangkang means a wonderful place in Tibetan. Therefore, the slogan of Mangkang County is “Beautiful Tibet, Good and Wonderful Mangkang”.
▼The main reason why Mangkang County has such an important position in the hearts of tourists visiting Tibet is because it is the intersection of the Yunnan-Tibet Line 214 and the Sichuan-Tibet Line 318. Whether you are entering Tibet from Sichuan or Yunnan, They all pass through Mangkang. Mangkang is the first county town entering Tibet.
