This unprecedented visual impact is absolutely full of desire and temptation to explore. The following is a super detailed guide to Seda Wuming Buddhist College.

What does Seda mean?

Tibetan means "golden horse", so it is called "golden horse" because a horse-shaped gold was discovered in Sedang in the early years. Seda Larong Wuming Buddhist College, referred to as Wuming Buddhist College for short, is located about 20 kilometers southeast of sertar county, Ganzi Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture, Sichuan Province, with an altitude of 3,600 meters. The Buddhist temples in the ditch are surrounded by mountains and waters, centered on the Dajingtang of the Buddhist College, and surrounded by mountains and slopes. A large number of crimson cabins are undulating and spectacular.

The Sarajon Wuming Buddhist College was founded by King Peng Cuo of Jinmei in 1980, becoming the largest Tibetan Buddhist college in the world.

1 recommended sightseeing route (3 days from Chengdu):

On the first day, I set out from Chengdu (subject to 6:00 a.m.) along the Minjiang River and drove into the scenic corridor in western Sichuan to enjoy the unique Tibetan and Qiang customs. After lunch in miyaluo, Lixian County or Hongye Town, pass through Marcand, the capital of Aba Prefecture, and arrive at Guanyinqiao Town. You will climb the half slope of Nale Mountain, see the world's largest prayer wheel from a distance, climb the stone steps, turn the prayer wheel, count the Mani stones on the Mani wall, and come to worship and pray in front of Zhuojia Guanyin Bodhisattva. Kannonji is famous for its "spirit" and is a sacred place in the hearts of many believers. At sunset, stand on the top of the mountain and watch the sunset with the light of faith. Stay in Guanyinqiao Town at night.

Depart at 6 o'clock the next morning and go straight to Dongga Temple, the practice place of Dongzang Tantric Sect (3 hours' drive). In case of snow, you can go to Longxiangyakou to see the snow scene last year and go back to the county for lunch at noon. Then go to the celestial burial platform (20 minutes' drive). In case of a holiday, you must be early. The time of celestial burial is different every day. The default time is 65438+ 0: 30 pm. The custom of celestial burial in Tibet, in which the dead are taken to heaven by the dakini, is so spectacular that you can't help sighing about life. After watching the celestial burial, drive to the entrance of the Buddhist College (you need to prepare 4 yuan change to get to the top of the mountain by car).

A beautiful picture of Buddhism gradually appeared in front of us-a red house full of mountains, monks in red robes walking through it, a magnificent Buddhist college, and a magnificent altar city (4000m above sea level) under the blue sky and white clouds. Take a bus to Juemu Sutra Hall or Dajingtang, and walk to Larong Hotel or Honglou Temple near Larong Hotel to arrange for check-in. Then move freely. Walking on the path of the college, communicating with believers and monks, reading scriptures, worshiping, experiencing the monk's practice style, and feeling the power of faith and inner peace in the constant rotation of the prayer wheel. In the evening, go to the best viewing platform to shoot a nearly perfect night scene (you can stay at the Buddhist College or the county seat at night).

Day 3: Marcand-Wenchuan-Chengdu departs at 6:00 a.m. and returns, crossing Mosuo Canyon and seeing the beautiful scenery along the way; Via Marcand and miyaluo, to Gulgou, Lixian County. Arrive at Gulgou or miyaluo for lunch at noon, and then return to Chengdu Chadianzi subway station via Dujiangyan, Wenchuan, ending Seda's shocking pilgrimage.

Tour route 2: West Sichuan Small Ring Road (Chengdu-xinduqiao-Luhuo-Seda-Marcand-Chengdu). This route takes four days. The scenic spots along Hailuogou, Zheduo Mountain, Mugecuo, xinduqiao and Moshi Park can be reversed. discrepancy

On the first day of navigation in Luding, you can choose to visit Luding Bridge or go to Mugecuo and stay in xinduqiao at night. You can make a short stop at Zheduo Pass. There are two roads to xinduqiao, one is National Highway 3 18 and the other is Kangding Airport Road. Airport Road is recommended in Tibetan areas in spring and summer, and the mountains and grasslands along the way are all flowers. )

The arrangement for the next day is the key point (mark the key points to be tested). We set off at 6: 00 in the morning and sailed directly to the Buddhist College (Moshi Park can make a short stop). Arrive at the foot of Buddhist College for lunch around noon 1. Visit the Buddhist College in the afternoon and enjoy the night view in the evening. (The road conditions in Tibetan areas are complicated. When you meet a big car and the truck is driving ahead, you must pay attention to getting up early. ) Set aside enough time to visit the Buddhist College.

On the third morning, when you wake up naturally, you can go to Dongga Temple (in case of snow, you can enjoy the snow scene at the mountain pass in the year of Longxiang, which takes about 60 minutes by car), arrive at the county seat for lunch at noon, then go to the celestial burial platform (before 1:30), and navigate Zhuokeji immediately after watching the celestial burial (arrive around 8 pm).

On the fourth morning, I naturally slept and drove back to Chengdu. (You can stop at Ganbaozhai, Tao Ping Qiangzhai and Yingxiu Town along the way)

Free travellers can choose Chengdu Tea Shop Sub-station to buy direct tickets to Seda. There is only one bus (sometimes two) every day, and the ticket is around 250 yuan.

Matters needing attention

Seda is an alpine plateau area, so we should pay attention to cold protection, sun protection and high reflection. Friends who drive by car must get up early, especially the narrow road surface of National Highway 3 17. If the truck in front is in the way, it's a waste of time.

Hotels in Seda, xinduqiao, Marcand and Zhuokeji are all relatively cheap, generally about 40~70, Tibetan areas 100~ 140, and youth hostels have about 45 people. Holidays fluctuate greatly.

Catering gourmet

Many friends who come to Tibetan areas will choose to eat some yak soup pots and the like. Actually, it is not recommended for everyone to go. There is a certain phenomenon of cheating customers. You can go to the farmer's market to buy yak meat yourself.

If you want to go to Daocheng, you can buy a ticket at Seda Station, go to Kangding and transfer to Daocheng, or you can contact the front desk of the hotel (they can help you contact the private car of Tibetans to Daocheng, about 200 per person).

Now that Ganzi Airport is open to navigation, foreign friends can fly directly to Ganzi and then go to Seda.
