Tibetan means "the highest snow mountain", with the main peak at 7556 meters above sea level, which is the highest peak in Sichuan Province and is called "Shu king of the hill". The summit platform is covered with ice and snow all year round and has a unique glacier spectacle.

If Gongga Mountain is compared to a Kangba person, then Gongga in the sky is his white snow peak, like the supreme head, while Gongga in the world is his dense vegetation, like gorgeous clothes, with fat waist, long sleeves, big breasts, pearls and jadeite, and bright colors.

The geological landform of the spring flower bed is similar to the calcified pool in Huanglong, but compared with Huanglong, the spring flower bed is more primitive and remote, with few tourists, and you can also enjoy Gongga Mountain, the king of mountains in Sichuan.

Gongga Mountain is in the southeast, and the spring flower bed is an excellent place to watch Gongga Mountain, which is known as the king of Shu Mountain. Spring flower beds are formed by chemical precipitation on the surface of spring water containing a lot of chemicals. There are more than a dozen five-color pools of different sizes and shapes on each terrace, with a water depth of 40-70 cm. In the colorful pool, water plants are interdependent and stone flowers are dotted. People suspect that Yaochi came into this world.

Bawanghai

The last piece of pure land in western Sichuan

Lenggacuo

Reflection of dreams
