The 6️⃣ most worthwhile temples to visit in Western Sichuan! ||| There are many temples in Western Sichuan, each with its own unique architecture and location. This article lists the temples that I think are the most worthwhile to visit. Whether it is the human history of the temple itself, the exquisite and detailed architecture, or the beautiful surrounding environment, they are all very interesting. . 1️⃣ Gemo Temple A temple with two Guinness records (China's largest connected Buddha hall building, China's tallest Maitreya Buddha statue), the entire temple is indescribable in its brilliance and magnificence. No photos are allowed inside, but those who have been there know how jaw-dropping it is. There is even a museum in the temple, with an elevator. 📍 Tangmai Village, Gemu Township, Aba County, Aba Prefecture 💰 No tickets required . 2️⃣ Dege Sutra-Printing House (Gengqing Temple) The Tibetan woodblock printing technique of the Dege Sutra-Printing House is the only traditional technique in the entire Tibetan area that is well preserved and still in use today, and it has been lost in other areas. Each character here carries and continues the heavy past in Chinese historical culture. It can be said that it is not only a treasure of Tibetan culture and art, but also a treasure of Chinese and even world culture. When you see tens of thousands of sutra-printing blocks with your own eyes, you will know how spectacular it is! 📍 Bagong Street, Gengqing Town, Dege County, Ganzi Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture 💰 50/person ⚠️ Cameras are not allowed inside, you can store them at the door (the picture is officially taken) . 3️⃣ Gato Temple (Shiming Buddhist College) The temple is nestled in the valley, separated from Tibet by only one mountain. It is huge, magnificent, and spectacular. The altitude of around 4800 makes it like another world, coupled with the exquisite and detailed design, it is unrealistically beautiful. 📍 Doni Mountain, Bailonggou, Baiyu County, Ganzi Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture 💰 No tickets required . 4️⃣ Seda Wuming Buddhist College A huge Buddhist college composed of small red houses stands at an altitude of nearly 4,000 meters, providing a place for monks to retreat and practice. Whether it is overlooking from the viewing platform or walking in it, every inch of eye-catching red is shocking. 📍 Luoruo Town, Seda County, 20 kilometers away from the county seat 💰 To enter the Buddhist College, you need to make an appointment with your ID card at the Jinma Grassland Distribution Center one day in advance, 48/person. Or book the official one-day tour itinerary, starting from 168. . 5️⃣ Langyi Temple Langyi Temple is built on the mountain, and the undulating mountains are at the foot. When the summer grassland is full of green and vibrant, it is even more unique. There are plank roads and viewing platforms here, and you don't need equipment such as drones and SLRs. The naked eye can capture the most beautiful angle. The sunrise is particularly beautiful, and if you have time, you must arrange it on the itinerary. 📍 Guoerwa Mountain Top, Aba County, Aba Tibetan and Qiang Autonomous Prefecture 💰 No tickets required . 6️⃣ Muya Temple Located in Tagong Grassland, under Yala Snow Mountain, whether in Tubo history or in the "Gesar Epic", it occupies a very important position. For friends who want to take pictures of snow-capped mountains and temples in the same frame, this place is very suitable for playing. You can also visit the nearby Jiagulong Village by the way. If you live in the village, you can get up early to watch the sunrise the next day. 📍 Tagong Town, Kangding City, Ganzi Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture 💰 No tickets required
