    Highlights: Mount Siguniang, also known as “Skubla” in Tibetan, is a large mountain with four sharp peaks, and is the highest of the Qionglai Mountains. It is located in Aba Prefecture’s Xiaojin County near Rilong Town. The peaks of Mount Siguniang are covered with snow the whole year round. The mountain’s name means “the Four Sisters”, because the four peaks are reminiscent of four beautiful maidens shrouded in white veils. The scenic area consists of the four snow covered peaks and the three valleys: Shuangqiao Valley, Changping Valley and Haizi Valley. Tickets for Haizi Valley are sold separately. An excursion to Mount Siguniang for holiday is recommended to plan at least three days for your trip. (For a proper visit, each of the valleys needs at least one full day.) If your time is limited, we suggest you first go to Changping Valley and Haizi Valley, as you cannot see the four peaks from Shuangqiao Valley. Many outdoor lovers like to go hiking between the valleys and will camp out overnight.

One mountain to view the four seasons, all four seasons are wonderful. Spring is a good season to enjoy the azalea, summer is a summer retreat, autumn is a colorful forest, and winter is a skiing season. Spring is a good season to watch Gongga Snow Mountain.

It is a transitional zone combining Han culture and ethnic culture. There are many local Yi and Tibetan people, and they have rich Tibetan and Yi culture. Introduction to Muya Tibetan Culture Gongga Snow Mountain is also called "Muya Gongga" and "Minya Gongga" by Muya Tibetan compatriots. Muya Tibetans are roughly distributed around Gongga Mountain, so Gongga Mountain has always been a sacred mountain for Muya people. The characteristics of Muya Tibetans are reflected in language. People here speak a Muya language called "Rongge", which has only language but no writing, and is only used inside the village. Muya Tibetans in Shimian welcome their grand festival on the 15th day of the winter month every year - the Buddha Sunning Festival, which is also the Muya people's "Returning the Mountain Chicken Festival" (using white chickens for sacrifice). On that day, they will carry out a grand sacrificial activity around the huge thangka handed down from the Tang Dynasty. Wanggangping of Ersu Tibetans is located in the Tibetan-Yi Corridor. Tibetans, Yi, Han and other ethnic groups have been integrated and developed here for thousands of years, and cultural tourism resources are rich and unique. Our visitor center also uses many cultural symbols and elements of Ersu and Muya Tibetans. Ersu Tibetans worship sacred mountains and sacred trees, and believe that all things have spirits. Saba is the original propagator of the local folk of the Ersu Tibetans, and is the name of the priests and great masters of the tribe. In the eighth month of the lunar calendar every year, the Ersu Tibetans will usher in the grand festival of the "Guzazi Festival". The Guzazi Festival, also known as the Huanshan Chicken Festival, is a provincial intangible cultural heritage and a unique traditional festival with ethnic characteristics of the Ersu Tibetans. Around the fifteenth day of the eighth month of the lunar calendar every year, the Ersu Tibetans worship their ancestors, pray for blessings, celebrate the New Year, and celebrate the harvest. It is also called the August New Year Festival. 2 Special Recommendations for the Rich Tourism Resources around Gongga Snow Mountain Gongga Holy Scenery, primitive forests, flower sea pastures, astronomical wonders, precious animals and plants, ethnic culture, yak ancient city and other precious resources have constructed a rich tourism resource cluster in southwest China.

The capital of Yazhou is located in Yak County, the former home of the Zao people, and the ruins of the county seat are located in Wanggangping at the junction of Hanyuan and Shimian counties. The prosperity of history has been lost. The ancient county town of Yak County, Yak City, built here has gone through more than 2,000 years of wind and rain, leaving behind colorful cultural resources, waiting for us to explore and experience. Wanggangping, a cloud-top pasture, has a flat terrain, covered with meadows, shrubs, and grass. In spring and summer, there is abundant rainfall, gurgling springs flow in the mountains, and the dry swamps also wake up, which is very suitable for grazing. On the top of the mountain, under the snow-capped mountains, in the forest, the leisurely cows and agile horses, compared with the Saibei scenery of "the sky is vast, the wilderness is vast, and the cows and sheep are seen when the grass blows low", is it a different scenery?

Some tree trunks have fallen for decades without decaying, and some new buds have sprouted one after another, bursting out the second spring of life, together with the criss-crossing branches and trunks with ferns, lichens, mosses, azaleas, usnea and other plants, forming a miniature three-dimensional landscape. The Millennium Azalea Forest has thousands of azaleas growing in the jungle of Wanggangping.

    "The poster is not high, suitable for taking the elderly and children to go together, the forest trail is also very interesting, there is a chance to see the horse group and cattle and sheep in the forest. But close contact is not recommended. The service is a bit poor. There is only one toilet in the whole process. The toilet has no water. The staff is off work very early and it is dark."
