Where is Siguniang Mountain?

Siguniang Mountain, located at the junction of Xiaojin County and Wenchuan County in Aba Tibetan and Qiang Autonomous Prefecture, is the highest peak of Qionglai Mountain in the eastern edge of Hengduan Mountains. Siguniang Mountain is revered as a fairy by local Tibetans. Legend has it that four beautiful and kind girls bravely fought fierce leopards to protect their beloved giant pandas, and finally became four tall and beautiful peaks, namely Siguniang Mountain. It consists of four adjacent peaks with altitudes of 6250 meters, 5664 meters, 5454 meters and 5355 meters. It is located in the northeast of Hengduan Mountains and the highest peak of Qionglai Mountains. The main peak, Momei Peak, is 6250 meters above sea level, located at east longitude 102.9 and north latitude 3 1. 1. It is the highest peak in Qionglai Mountain. This mountain peak is mainly composed of limestone. Due to the perennial weathering and erosion of nature, the mountain is very steep and there are many cliffs on the blade ridge. Several glaciers fly to the south slope of the main peak, and glacier tongue points to the foot of the mountain. The west and north slopes are formidable steep rocks hundreds of meters high. However, under the steep rocks, there are lush green grass, dense forests and clear valleys. Siguniang Mountain is located in the transition zone from the western Sichuan Plateau to the Chengdu Plain. Since Mesozoic, the Indosinian movement dominated by Triassic has experienced many tectonic changes. There are strong folds, mountain uplift, stratigraphic metamorphism, revival of old faults and river undercutting in this area. All these internal and external forces have caused the complex terrain characteristics of the huge height difference between Siguniang Mountain and the valley. The mountainous climate is changeable and the temperature difference between day and night is large, which is the transition zone from subtropical monsoon climate to continental plateau climate. Siguniang Mountain's special geographical location, climatic conditions and obvious vertical height difference provide an ideal living environment for all kinds of animals and plants. There are abundant animal and plant resources, including precious tree species such as Sequoia and Taxus, as well as rare medicinal materials such as Gastrodia elata, Fritillaria and Cordyceps. There are more than 60 species of mammals and 2300 species of birds here. It is an activity place for more than 30 kinds of national protected animals such as giant pandas, golden monkeys and red pandas, and the famous hometown of giant pandas-Wolong Nature Reserve is located here. Guniang Mountain, with its towering peaks and beautiful scenery, is a good place for mountaineering tourism. Starting from Chengdu, take a bus to the northwest via Dujiangyan and Wolong to Rilong, with a total distance of 245 kilometers. Ride from Rilong to the north of Changpinggu, about 20 kilometers, and you can reach the foot of Siguniang Mountain. Climbing the first, second and third grade girls' Shandong slope can be in the northeast of Rilong Haizigou. If you climb the east slope of Siguniang Mountain, you need to cross or bypass the steep ridge. Siguniang Mountain is famous for its majestic height. The mountain is steep, pointing to the blue sky, covered with ice and snow, and wrapped in silver. The foothills are densely forested, lush with green grass, and the clear streams gurgle endlessly, just like a beautiful southern European scenery, which is called "the Alps in the East". Siguniang Mountain, located at the junction of Xiaojin County and Wenchuan County, consists of four adjacent peaks of Hengduan Mountain Range. According to local Tibetan legends, Siguniang Mountain is the metaplasia of four beautiful girls, hence its name. Among the four girls, Sister Mo is the tallest, with an altitude of 6,250 meters, while Elder Sister, Second Sister and Third Sister are 5,355 meters, 5,454 meters and 5,664 meters respectively. They are shoulder to shoulder, with white clouds on their heads all the year round, glaciers on their shoulders and Tristan around their waist. They are clean, smooth, beautiful and handsome. They are also called "after Shu Mountain". Beautiful peaks, beautiful ravines, beautiful clouds and beautiful flowing water are worthy of being called national scenic spots. In recent years, it has become a popular tourist destination for China and foreign climbers.
