A Complete Guide to a One-Day Tour of Genyen Holy Mountain: Unlock the Beauty of Ganzi's Hidden Gem!

🌈Travel Plan: Depart from Kangding in the early morning and head straight to the sacred land of Ganzi—Genyen Holy Mountain! Experience a spiritual cleansing and the grandeur of nature in just one day. 🎒Travel Essentials: Sunscreen, sunglasses🕶️, warm clothing🧥, hiking boots👟, camera📷, and a heart ready to explore the unknown! 📍About the Location: Genyen Holy Mountain, meaning 'Mountain of the Noble Goddess' in Tibetan, is located in Litang County, Ganzi Prefecture. It is a paradise for hiking enthusiasts. 🚗About Transportation: It is recommended to drive or hire a car. The scenery along the way is breathtaking. Depart from Kangding, head west along National Highway 318, and the drive takes about 5 hours. 🍽️Food and Fun: You can enjoy a Tibetan-style breakfast in a small town along the way, with butter tea and tsampa, which warms both the body and the heart. For lunch, it's recommended to bring some dry food; a picnic at the mountain top offers a unique experience. 🏞️Must-Visit Spots: 1. Lenggu Monastery🏯, quietly nestled at the foot of the holy mountain, is the best spot to view the Genyen peaks. 2. Genyen's Eye👀, a naturally formed circular lake, like the tears of the holy mountain, mysterious and beautiful. 📸Photo Opportunities: Stand at the Genyen Holy Mountain viewing platform for a 360° unobstructed view; every frame is a masterpiece! Don't forget to take a photo with the snow-capped mountains to capture unforgettable moments. 🍲Local Delicacies: For dinner, try the authentic yak meat hotpot in Litang, with tender meat that warms both the stomach and the heart. 🏨Accommodation Recommendations: Although a one-day tour doesn't require accommodation, for a deeper experience, you can choose a Tibetan-style homestay in Litang County to feel the rich Tibetan culture. 💡Warm Tips: In high-altitude areas, pay attention to sun protection and warmth, drink water moderately, respect local customs, and protect the natural environment.
