Longxi Qiang People's Valley, Immerse in the Authentic Charm of Ancient Qiang Culture

"Aba Tibetan and Qiang Autonomous Prefecture, Sichuan Province, Longxi Township in Wenchuan County."
Characterful alleyway
4.5

Introduction

Here, you can experience the style of the oldest Qiang residences and watchtowers in Qiang traditional culture, and feel the simple folk customs. In ancient times, Qianggu Valley was a famous tea-horse ancient road in the northwest line, and the eight great scenic spots were highly praised in the Tang and Song Dynasties. As a well-preserved two-thousand-year-old Qiang ethnic settlement, Alqong Village is not only picturesque, but also the only origin of the Qiang Buddhist culture in China, with a large number of Buddhist practitioners. Due to long-term traffic isolation, Qianggu Valley has few foreign tourists and retains a lot of Qiang customs and natural scenery. It is an ideal place to experience the primitive natural beauty, and also a good place to enjoy picking fruits and crops.
