Introduction of main scenic spots in Lugu Lake

The main scenic spots in Lugu Lake are: Rig Peninsula, Ribubi Island, Asha Valley, Gem Goddess Mountain, Caohai and Zouhun Bridge.

1. Rig Peninsula

Rig Peninsula, located at the foot of Mount Gemnvshen in the northeast, is one of the seven pearl-jewel-like islands in Lugu Lake, and is known as the "Three Islands of Penglai" together with Shewao Island and Ribubi Island.

Rige Island is an island connected with seawalls in the bay on the northern edge of Lugu Lake. Surrounded by water on three sides, the island is an inner harbor surrounded by green hills on the left and right, beside the goddess Ligem. There is an observation deck in front of Rig Peninsula, which can see the whole picture of Rig Peninsula.

2. Ribubi Island

Ribubi Island is located in the south-central part of Lugu Lake, which divides Lugu Lake with Tubu Peninsula, and faces Snake Island in the northwest. It takes about half an hour from Luoshui Village to the island. One side of the island is stalagmite, which becomes a natural pier, and a path leads directly to the top of the island. There are many azaleas and wild cherry trees along the road. At the end of the flowers is Liwubi Temple, a Tibetan Buddhist temple, with a white pagoda at the top of the island.

Third, Axia Valley

Axia Valley is located in the southwest corner of Lugu Lake. A clear spring runs through the middle of three village and flows into Lugu Lake along the edge of the meadow.

The main landscapes of Axia Valley are mostly original ecological landscapes and historical sites, with Lugu Lake water source, Paradise Waterfall, Axia Waterfall, Daughter River, the old monk's face wall, Bodhisattva Cave (karst cave, underground river exit), Taxus chinensis (national first-class protected plant), and wild peach blossoms full of the valley in March as the main ones.

Fourth, the Goddess of Gem Mountain

The Goddess of Gem Mountain, also known as Lion Mountain, stands in the north of Lugu Lake, and its mountain is magnificent, overlooking the long and narrow island (Rige Island) that extends into the lake from the northeast, just like "golden otter fishing".

Mount Gemnvshen is high in the south and low in the north, with bright gray and white tones. The main peak of the same name is 3,754 meters above sea level, about 1, meters higher than the lake, just like a lion. Gem Goddess Mountain can take a cableway up the mountain and enter the Goddess Cave under Nvshen Peak. Gem Goddess Cave is located at the neck of Lion Mountain, with an altitude of 3,45 meters.

5. Caohai and Zouhun Bridge

Caohai is located in the southeast of Lugu Lake. Due to perennial sediment deposition, the lake is shallow, so dense reeds grow. Caohai is about 7 thousand meters long, with an average width of about 8 meters and an area of about 9 thousand mu. It is under the jurisdiction of Zuosuo Township, Yanyuan County, Sichuan Province.

There is a wedding bridge on the Caohai River, which is more than 3 meters long, connecting the villages of Mosuo people on both sides of the strait, providing a convenient passage for the wedding "Axia", so it is called "the first love magpie bridge in the world".
