Yading Nature Reserve Park

This stunning nature reserve is located in the southern part of Dabpa ( Chinese: Daocheng ) County in south- western Sichuan and a strong contender for the Shangri-La title. Within the park are unspoilt vegetation and native forests, very isolated Tibetan villages, a small monastery, and sacred lakes. There are three sacred mountains here: Chenresig (Avalokitesvara, 6032 meters), Jambeyang (Manjusri, 5958 m), and Chanadorje (Vajrapani, 5958 m). These three mountains have never been climbed and their technical difficulty have so far defeated all those who have tried - primarily western climbers. They are sacred to Tibetan Buddhists for they are the representation of the compassion, wisdom, and energy that are essential to reaching enlightenment and the end of suffering. Buddhists believe that it would be a sacrilege to climb them and a kora or pilgrimage around one or all of the mountains brings great merit. The scenery here easily rivals that of national parks of the west such as Yellowstone and Yosemite in terms of spectacular, pristine mountain scenery. The trek around the mountains which follow the path of the kora will be one of the main highlights of any trip to this part of SW China
