Rangtang, the name means "the place where the God of Wealth lives" in Tibetan. It is not only a secret place praised by National Geographic magazine, but also the biggest surprise in our return to the "Extreme of Western Sichuan" route this year. Many travelers have found a touch here that transcends Seda, and have fallen in love with this mysterious place known as the "Pure Land of Hanging Sky". Rangtang is a piece of pure land that has not been eroded by commercial atmosphere. Its beauty is quiet but profound, rich but not ostentatious. Here, all the natural and cultural landscapes of Western Sichuan come together: majestic snow-capped mountains, vast grasslands, spectacular glaciers, lush forests, and solemn temples. The story of Dangbala and the legend of Juenang culture unfold slowly under the protection of the holy mountain of Shangladongji and in the gentle flow of the Duko River, which is touching. During the journey of "The Extremes of Western Sichuan", we will unveil the mystery of Rangtang in five chapters: Highway Chapter: Shang Nantian Road, the landscape avenue above the clouds Take Nantian Road, which is hailed as the "Landscape Avenue" by National Geographic, winding above the clouds and between the mountains.
