Sky City Litang

🌟Litang's Hidden Gem | The Soul Journey to the Eye of Genie🌄 "You have to visit Litang at least once, to be the crane in the dream of Tsangyang Gyatso. What amazes me most about Litang, this city of paradise, is not its title as the Sky City at an altitude of 4014 meters, but the "Eye of Genie" hidden deep in the plateau💎. This round lake, resembling the pupil of the earth, reflects a brilliant blue under the sunlight, like a palette spilled by God! Genie Sacred Mountain: The third highest peak in Sichuan, one of the famous sacred mountains in Tibet, cold and pure. Qianhu Tibetan Village · Letong Ancient Town: One of the largest Tibetan village clusters in China, condensing the essence of Tibetan dwellings and folk culture. Horse Racing Culture: "The Land of Equestrianism," the galloping and grandeur of the Bayi International Horse Racing Festival. Maoya Grassland: From the blooming flower sea in midsummer to the golden fairy tale in late autumn. Come here to feel the most primal pulse of the earth and witness the grandeur of the Creator. 📍Eye of Genie Tips It is recommended to hire a car (about 3 hours' drive from Litang) The best viewing time is before 10 a.m. Remember to bring a drone!
