The best time to travel to Zoige Grassland

The best time to travel to Zoige Grassland is from June to August.

Summer is the golden season of the grassland. The sky is high and the air is clear, and the visibility is very high. Between heaven and earth, there are green grass, flowers, and fragrance as far as the eye can see. The grassland is dotted with countless small lakes. The lakes are blue and the small rivers connect the large and small lakes like vines. The river water is crystal clear and there are countless swimming fish. In mid-June, most of the flowers in Huahu are in bloom. From July to August, you can hardly see flowers in Huahu. However, from July to August, you can still see some wild flowers on the grassland in bloom.

The weather started to get cold after August, and the car was already frozen when I woke up in the morning. In addition, in mid-September every year, the red leaves all over the mountains and plains compete with each other from high to low, from the top of the mountain to the valley. Walking along the promenade where the green valleys and the mountains intertwine, your heart will definitely be filled with the intoxicating autumn colors.

The development history of Ruoergai Grassland:

Ruoergai has always been an important transportation route from Gansu to Qinghai and an important town on the northern road of Aba Prefecture. It is located in the triangle area that leads from the Hehuang Valley in the north to the Minjiang River and Dadu River in the south or from the Jialing River in the east to the Sichuan Basin. It has an important position in transportation and trade. It has always been the frontier zone for communication and integration between the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau and the mainland, and it is also a must for military strategists. Fight for land.

In prehistoric times, Ruoergai was an important place for the reproduction and birth of the "ancient Qiang people", an important ethnic group of the Chinese nation. It belonged to the Xirong area. In the pre-Qin Dynasty, it was under the jurisdiction of the Qiang Rong people in Xizhihequ. In the Southern and Northern Dynasties, it belonged to Tuyuhun. In the early Tang Dynasty, It was Songzhou Jisi in 2001, and was occupied by Tubo in the twelfth year of Zhenguan. In the Yuan Dynasty, Panzhou was established in what is now Qiuji Township. In the Ming Dynasty, it was under Songpan Wei. In the Qing Dynasty, it was under the jurisdiction of Zhanglaying of Songpan Hall. In the Republic of China, it was under the jurisdiction of Songpan County. In June 1953, the Ruoergai Baozuo Administrative Committee, a transitional county-level administrative organization, was established.

The county was officially established in July 1956 and is affiliated to the Aba Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture. Zoige is the name of the tribe because of his name. According to legend, in the 1940s during the reign of Tibetan King Trizu Detsen (815-838), he sent minister Gar Yeshe Daji to conquer the border and stayed in the present-day Zoige area. His descendant Ropa Gedeng was in charge of money, grain and taxation, and the common people referred to him as him. It was named "Ruogai", and later named Ruogai, and later developed into Ruogai Nengwa, Ruogai Doma and other tribes. At the same time, Zoige is also an important part of the Amdo Cultural District, one of the three major cultural areas of Tibet.
