Lesser-known attractions in Western Sichuan: Shijingcheng/Shijing Wall

Western Sichuan is quite suitable for a summer trip, it's a vast area, so it probably won't be too crowded haha, I recommend a lesser-known summer travel destination ➡️ Shiqu County in Western Sichuan, where you can find Shijingcheng/Wall (the oldest, longest, and hardest to find); and Seda Monastery (the largest temple complex in Ganzi Prefecture, and the only Buddhist college in the Kham area qualified to award Geshe degrees). I visited three Shijingcheng/Walls last time, namely Songgemanicheng, Bagamani Shijing Wall, and Murimanicheng, which are known as the oldest, longest, and hardest to find. Among them, Murimanicheng Shijing Wall is indeed the hardest to find, as there is no location for it on the map, and there is not much information about it online, with no exact location. We found it by driving and asking locals along the way~ 🌟 The Shijing Wall is made up of stone blocks engraved with scriptures, piled up one by one. Every so often, there are several stupas connected, and on both sides of the wall, there are many large and small 'windows', inside which are placed one or several stone Buddha statues, some of which are even painted. 🌟 Shijingcheng is a square stone city built with stone blocks printed with scriptures, without any frame support or any adhesive. It is completely a 'city tower' piled up randomly by people, and the sight is very impressive!
