Western Sichuan Panorama 9-Day Overland Trip
Sichuan Province’s western half, sprawling towards Gansu, Yunnan and Tibet, is in every respect an exciting place to travel to. The countryside with highlands forming some of China’s most imposing scenery – broad grasslands grazed by yaks and horses, ravens tumbling over snowbound gullies and passes, and unforgettable views of mountain ranges rising up against crisp blue skies. There are so many masterpieces of landscape in Western Sichuan region: Mt.Four Girls, or Mt.Sigunuang, literally four sisters mountain, is said to be the Queen of Sichuan Mountains and the oriental Alps. The four snowy peaks stand by each other in order, how beautiful it is! Yading National Park, located in Daocheng County, is regarded as the last pure land on earth. To worship the three holy mountains, and to challenge yourself to trek to Milk Lake are really unforgettable in your life. However this journey is far beyond these...if lucky enough, you can come across Tibetan people praying from forehead to knees to toes, which is an extremely heart-shaking scene.
HIGHLIGHTS
*Deep sightseeing for 2 days in Yading National Park, the last Shangri-la
*A memorable journey filled with fresh air, snow-capped mountains, green forests, lakes combined with well preserved Tibetan folklore, primitive style of the natural scenery
