One of the four sacred mountains of Tibetan Buddhism | Animaqing

Animaqing in Guoluo, Qinghai, Gang Rinpoche in Tibet, Meili Snow Mountain in Yunnan, and Gado Juewo in Yushu, Qinghai, are known as the 'Four Sacred Mountains of Tibetan Buddhism'. As a Sichuanese who loves to travel to the northwest, I see Animaqing almost every year.

❤Recommendation: Many people choose to leave the province via Guangyuan when going from Sichuan to Qinghai or Xinjiang. In fact, taking the Dema Expressway (Delingha, Qinghai - Maerkang, Sichuan) through Aba County in Aba Prefecture and Jiuzhi County in Guoluo Prefecture to Qinghai, especially to the Gobi area in Haixi, is shorter in time, closer in distance, less crowded, and has great scenery. The key is that you can see Animaqing, one of the four sacred mountains, and the Dongji Cuo Na Lake formed by the melting water of Animaqing. You will also pass by the twin sisters of Nianbaoyuze - Lianbaoyeze.

📍Detailed address: The parking area at the entrance of the No. 1 tunnel of the snow mountain nearest to Dawu Town, Maqin County.

💰Average consumption: 0

⏳Play time: More than 0.5h

📝Tips:
①The parking area cannot be occupied for a long time
②The altitude of the expressway in Guoluo Prefecture is relatively high, 3500+
③The expressway fee is slightly higher
④Sometimes you will encounter roads with frozen soil subsidence, which are quite bumpy.
