/Dead Tree Beach/
The original name of the dry tree beach is "Longzhucuo", because the sea buckthorn trees are soaked in snow water all the year round and withered, and grow in the clear lake water, together with the scattered metasequoia, forming a different scenery.
/Red Pebble Beach/
We walked with the camel peak through the water dam, the turtle rock, the sheep mantai, the red rock beach all the way to the alpine meadow, and the cattle and horses were intoxicated in this picture of the western Sichuan plateau!

Under the sun, the white pagoda in front of the temple shines with golden prayer flags, and the Tibetans lead their horses through the temple gate, which is the place where the soul of the Tibetan people in Jiarong belongs...
