It is a long established fact that a reader will be distracted by the readable content of a page when looking at its layout. The point of using Lorem Ipsum is that it has a more-or-less normal distribution of letters, as opposed to using 'Content here, content here', making it look like readable English.

Later, depart for the National Scenic Area of Four Girls Mountain (Mount Siguniang).

Beauty of Mt. Siguniang: Changping Valley or Haizi Valley

Hiking is an ideal way to take in the natural beauty of Mt. Siguniang fully. Among the three valleys of Mt.

Afterward, drive about 2.5 hours to Danba County and visit Suopo Tibetan Village with the largest number of ancient watchtowers in Danba and even the world.

JDanba Jiaju Village, Danba - Tagong

Begin your day exploring Jiaju Village, home to more than 140 Tibetan families and stretching from the Dajin River valley to the foot of Kapama peaks. Continue your journey by a 2-hour drive to Moshi Park, where its unique geological formations like towering stone columns will bring you to an alien planet.

Head to Tagong Town for the night.

Days 6

Tagong - Moxi Ancient Town

Dominated by red and white walls, with a glittering tower top, Tagong Temple looks like the crown on the vast grassland. Step into the temple and get an insight into local religious practices.
