Natural scenery

Introduction

-Meili Snow Mountain, the main peak of the eight sacred mountains in the Tibetan area, is located in the "Three Parallel Rivers" region, with an elevation of 6740 meters, and is the highest peak in Yunnan Province. It is recognized as one of the most beautiful snow mountains in the world and enjoys the reputation of "the God of Snow Mountain". -The Kawagebo Peak Glacier is famous for its typical oceanic characteristics, with fast-changing activity and extreme difficulty in climbing due to its unstable nature. Therefore, it is still a virgin peak today. -The best time to visit Kawagebo Peak is from October to May of the next year. During this time, the weather is clear, the air is fresh, and the chance of the sacred mountain being covered by clouds is very low. From June to July, it enters the rainy season, and the opportunity to see the sacred mountain will be greatly affected. -To capture the full picture of Kawagebo Peak, you can choose the Fly to Temple Observation Deck and the Deqin Welcome Platform (Thirteen White Pagodas) as the two best locations.
