GanNan Prairie Xiangbala

The charming Gannan (Southern Gansu) Prairie is a Shangri-La covered with pretty and dense grass. This is a flat and vast pasture on plateau and a piece of clean land where human beings and the nature coexist peacefully and harmoniously. Occupying an area of more than 3,758 mu, this grassland mainly distributes in Maqu, Xiahe and Luqu counties. The vast Maqu prairie is the largest ecological wetland located at the first curve of the Yellow River as the paradise of the local Hequ Horse, ack-necked crane, swine, goa and spotted deer. Gahai Lake, the largest one on Gannan Plateau, is a shining gem embedded in the boundless Luqu Grassland. You can enjoy fascinating scenes decorated by various flowers and birds on the lush grassland in summer and autumn. Blue sky, white cloud and clear water will deliver a beautiful picturesque view of prairie with the snowy mountains standing afar. Sangker Grassland is famous for its top-quality pasture as well as the grand Tibetan festivals and Buddhist ceremonies held there every year. Cattles, sheep and tents are dotted here and there. On the far-flung angker Grassland with smoke from the kitchen chimneys and the pastoral from herders, tourists can enjoy themselves on the grassland by wearing Tibetan clothes, riding on horses or yak and experiencing unique Tibetan folk customs, life styles and their culture.
