In langmusi, whether it is a residential building or a temple, you can see crescent-shaped towers and sparkling flame gems on the roofs everywhere, and even the air seems to be filled with a strong Buddhist atmosphere.
2. Maqu Wetland
Maqu is known as the hometown of horse racing in China. The annual horse racing festival is the most important festival here. Generally, at the beginning of August every year, venues without horse racing festivals will be slightly deserted.
Some local people will also come here to visit Long Da. At present, Gannan is building a global tourism demonstration site, and now many places are particularly clean, and Long Da has been banned.

A highlight of Maqu County
4. Zagana
The place I am most looking forward to in the whole journey is Zhagana, where the immortals live. Although langmusi is also known as the "Little Swiss of the East", it feels more simple in Zhaga.
Zhaga 'na is a masterpiece of nature with peculiar terrain, which is located at the south foot of Guanggai Mountain, the main peak of Dieshan Mountain. The original intention of Zhaga is "in a stone box", which is a complete stone city.
The residents here also live a grazing life, but the scenic spots here have not been fully developed, so they are relatively simple. This is the last stop of my trip and my favorite place. I can still learn a lot about the cultural landscape by chatting with local people who can speak Mandarin.
Tip: At present, the whole scenic spot in Zhaga is still open to the public free of charge, as long as you charge a little parking fee. And tourists are much less than popular scenic spots in Gannan.
travel notes
1. Accommodation: With the popularity of tourism, many homestays are open and there are many choices.
2. About diet: Gannan cuisine is mainly Tibetan food. Besides the familiar butter tea, yogurt, sweet tea, all kinds of leg of lamb, lamb chops and Tibetan pigs, it is worth a try.
There are many festivals in Gannan. During the prayer meeting from the third day of the first month to the seventeenth day of the first month, many festivals with Tibetan characteristics took turns to appear. The Horse Racing Festival and Pot Dance Festival in early August are good opportunities for friends who are interested in Tibetan culture and folk customs.
