Look on the map and you'll find a county town called Yajiang, which is incredibly small. It is less than 0.5 square kilometers, that is, it is even smaller than Tiananmen Square. But don't underestimate Yajiang County because of the small size of the county. Although the county seat is limited, Yajiang County has 4 districts, 1 town and 16 townships, with a total area of 7,681 square kilometers, which is more than the area of many prefecture-level cities. So why is this county so small? The reason lies in geography.
Yajiang County, located in Ganzi Prefecture, Sichuan Province, has always been one of the important ferry ports on the Yalong River. The location of the county seat is naturally also on the Yalong River. The mountains on both sides are steep, and the river divides the county in two, creating a geographical feature like a cliff. There is only one two-lane main street in the entire county, and the space between the road and the buildings is narrow. The efforts of generations of residents have made it possible for this small county town to exist today. Despite its limited scale, the county's architectural layout is unique and staggered, as if embedded between the cliffs on both sides, presenting a unique and mysterious landscape. Along the Yalong River, the Sichuan-Tibet Highway winds its way through it, connecting the county with the outside world.
Most of Yajiang County is located above 3,000 meters above sea level, with the highest point exceeding 5,000 meters. This is a typical highland mountainous area with difficult living conditions, so the population is limited. As of 2011, the county's population is about 49,474, mainly Tibetans. However, it is for this reason that Yajiang County enjoys magnificent natural scenery and unique cultural heritage. It is located on the Ancient Tea Horse Road, while the Sichuan-Tibet Highway crosses the entire county. Yajiang County is famous for its Kham culture, Jiren Lake is like a fairyland, and the quaint sacred mountain is known as one of the 26 sacred mountains in Tibet.
Recently, the exciting news came that on February 18, 2020, Yajiang officially announced that it had been lifted out of poverty, which was a great encouragement to local development and a victory in the battle against poverty.
Overall, Yajiang County, despite its small county, is known for its magnificent natural scenery and rich cultural heritage. The geographical features of this small county town make it unique, as it is located next to the Yalong River and surrounded by high mountains, presenting a unique sense of mystery. Yajiang County was unswerving on the road of overcoming difficulties and achieving poverty alleviation, and finally ushered in victory. This small county town is a place full of charm and resilience that deserves to be explored in depth and deeply.
