Introduction

The grass on the Hongyuan grassland is lush, and the White River flows like a crescent, hence its nickname Moon Bay Grassland. In comparison to the Ruoergai Grassland, the Hongyuan Grassland is flatter, as if a beautiful Tibetan girl is standing still. The Red Army marched through this place during the Long March, leaving behind their footprints and campsites. It's important to choose the right time to visit here; during late autumn, there is no lush green grass or wildflowers to see, but through the sunlight, the grassland shines with a golden glow.
