Separated by just a river from Tibet! The beautiful but often forgotten small county town in Western Sichuan
You must have heard of Batang!
You must have heard of Dege!
You must have heard of Gongjue in Tibet!
But did you know
To the north of Batang, to the south of Dege
Across the Jinsha River from Gongjue
There lies a beautiful small county town in Western Sichuan!
Baiyu County
This place is a must-pass on the 317 route into Tibet!
But few people pay attention to it
If you have time to stroll around here slowly
You will definitely like this beautiful and tranquil small town!
It seems that people here like to sleep in late!
The shops on the street only slowly open their doors after the sun is well up in the sky!
Groups of people sit on the street, chatting and drinking tea, slowly enjoying the day!
If you're tired from walking, you can also find an authentic Tibetan restaurant
To try some blood sausage and tsampa!
I wonder if you like their taste as much as I do!
