Zhagana, also known as Zhagara, is a small Tibetan village wrapped in a beautiful cliff in Diebu County, Gannan Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture. It has beautiful scenery and is one of the most beautiful places in Gannan District. It takes about 1 hour to drive from Diebu County and about 2 hours to come from langmusi. Zhagana is suitable for playing in July and August, when the grassland is green and the scenery is beautiful. Most tourists come from langmusi when they take the Gannan-Chuanbei route.
The usual time to play is to arrive on the first afternoon, take a leisurely stroll in the village and enjoy the beautiful scenery. Stay in Tibet B&B for one night in the evening, shoot fog in the morning and leave after sunrise the next morning. In addition, there is a two-day hiking route in Zhagana Houshan, where you can rent horses in the village or walk. Most of the accommodations in Zhagana are local Tibetan houses and farmhouses, and in recent years, there are also inns with good conditions.
Zhagana Village is divided into four small villages, namely Dongwa Village, Yeri Village, Dari Village and Tiba Village from bottom to top. When I stood in the highest village and looked down at the scenery in front of me, I was shocked by the scenery in front of me. Four primitive villages have been built on all sides, surrounded by mountains and winding paths. It looks like a large-scale and complete ancient city built by natural rock walls.
The strangest thing about this place is that two stone peaks rise in the south and stand side by side like a stone gate. Only one asphalt road comes in from the middle, and the other three sides are towering peaks. It's heaven. Everyone was particularly surprised to see it. It is really right to come to this place. Even if the road to Zhagana is a difficult place, there is basically no net, no smooth road, and the narrow dusty road lasts for three hours, so I can't sleep at all.
Zhagana in the deep mountains of Gannan is shrouded in mist all the year round, and the village is quiet, just like a fairyland. It's incredible. The reasonable combination and complementary integration of nomadic, farming, hunting and firewood collection in Tibetan villages has become a model of harmonious coexistence between man and nature. The morning scene on the plateau has a unique charm, waiting for the sunrise on the observation deck and quietly waiting for the sunrise in the morning. The sun rises from the top of the snow-capped mountains, and in an instant, thousands of golden lights spread all over the earth. This is a beautiful moment.
At present, there are not many people affected, and the verification at the door is very strict. You don't need tickets, just buy BX. The road is now well built and will pass through Dongwa Village, Yeri Village and Dari Village one after another, getting higher and higher and the scenery is invincible; Gannan, a pure land on earth, seems to have always been my dream place. She is very small, occupying only a small piece of land in southwest Gansu. She is so old that she has all the scenery you can see in Tibet. She is so beautiful that you don't want to leave there. This is the beautiful and willful Gannan, just to meet you in this past.
In addition, it should be noted that the folk customs of Zhaga are relatively simple, but because of the appearance of tourists, there are already children asking for money on the roadside. In this case, it is not recommended to give money directly, so as not to establish unhealthy values for local children. It's best to get permission to take pictures of local residents. The local people are very friendly. You can try to make friends with them and avoid taking photos rudely. If you are invited to your home by local residents, you can give them a small gift as a thank you. Please don't pay directly, so as not to turn a simple relationship into a paid folk performance.
Want to go to a small village in Gannan to experience it? If you can't go abroad, it's also a good choice to see the great rivers and mountains in China. Zhagana Mountain is steep and misty, just like a fairyland. The residents here are mainly Tibetans and Miao people. The houses are built on the mountain, which are strewn at random and have local characteristics. The air is fresh and comfortable. It is a natural oxygen bar. It was sunny and picturesque all the way. The legendary Gannan? The last peach blossom garden? Really worthy of its reputation, I feel closer to nature and the air is super good.
