Main attractions

Glacial landscape

For thousands of years, Dagu glacier was like a girl living in a pavilion. It was not until 1992 that Japanese scientists discovered her hiding in the mountains by satellite. In August of the same year, they traveled across the ocean to Heishui to investigate her for a week, It is the youngest glacier in the world with the lowest altitude, the largest area, and the closest glacier to the central city. It is the most beautiful glacier in the glacier area so far.

virgin forest

The primeval forest of Dagu glacier is well protected with rich primitive flavor, which is better than the primeval forest of kalonggou. From the ancient ice park to the glacier, the first step is to pass through the primeval forest of Dagu glacier scenic area. When you walk through the forest, you can see all kinds of tall and straight trees, which cover the sky and block out the sun, making people feel quiet and mysterious. In the forest, dozens of meters high, a few thick encircled ancient trees are everywhere, the color is emerald red, soft moss and thick pine needles spread to the depth of the dense forest.

Streams, splashing with jade, are playing the most primitive notes, making people relaxed and happy. Through the gaps in the forest, you can see a huge mountain spring gushing out from the opposite cliff, flying down vertically, forming a waterfall with a height of more than 200 meters and a width of more than 50 meters. If you stand at the bottom of the waterfall and look up at the waterfall, it's like a white curtain woven by thousands of crystal water drops, falling from the sky, sprinkling water mist like light rain, making people feel like they are in the sea and sky clouds, so it's named "Lingyun waterfall".

Fairyland on earth

Along the Heishui River, the green mountains and fresh air on both sides of the river. After passing through the ancient Tibetan village, we can see the towering ancient trees and the high mountains and canyons. Further on, a wide meadow appears in front of us. We can see white, yellow and pink flowers all over the meadow. They are colorful and beautiful. Standing on the meadow, we feel the fragrance of flowers , refreshing. When the weather is fine, you can overlook the glacier from the meadow. The three glaciers are like curtains hanging in the sky. They are as one with the blue sky and white clouds. The hall is wonderful. After crossing the meadow, we soon came to the ancient ice park at the foot of the glacier. The park is surrounded by mountains with beautiful scenery. The virgin forest, alpine meadow and mountain stream decorate her to the fullest, making her beautiful. This scene reminds us of Tao Yuanming's peach garden and fairyland.

Dongcuo Riyue sea

Out of the Rhododendron forest, over a ridge, the olive green dumbbell shaped coco Sun Moon sea lies there, 1500 meters long and 300 meters wide. Gazing at the sun moon sea, she is like a affectionate girl's silent eyes, bright and quiet. It is the light stagnating here, the sound disappearing here, the occasional mountain wind blowing, the lake microwave rippling, just a little aware of the existence of life.

Alpine Rhododendron forest

Through the vast forest sea, at an altitude of 3800-4200, it is another classic of Dagu glacier Scenic Area - thousands of mu of Alpine Rhododendron forest. The best time to enjoy the Rhododendron is from May to June of the next year. The rhododendron flowers all over the mountains are blooming and competing for splendor. The red and white petals, set off by the green leaves, are very noble and elegant, just like natural bonsai. The mountain wind blows, the azalea sways with the wind, as if to welcome guests from afar. People are surprised, but they can't help but be impressed by its tenacious vitality.

glacier

Starting from the sun moon sea in Kecuo, I climb over the hills composed of large brown red granite and come to Glacier I. I feel a chill coming towards me. When I look at it, I can see the crescent shaped body of the glacier. The snow accumulated over the years gently covers its ice cold body. The ice erosion cliffs in the front of the glacier are looming, and countless blocks of ice are floating in the blue ice erosion lake Small, different shapes, crystal white ice, like clouds in the sky. Approaching, the wrinkled and elegant linear ornamentation on the front edge of the glacier is like a tree ring. The lines are beautiful and clear, as if silently describing its development and formation process and the vicissitudes of hundreds of millions of years.

Under the sunlight, the glacier is white with green, green with blue, crystal clear and dazzling. It intersects with the delicate and quiet ice lake, which is soul stirring. Standing on the top of the glacier, looking far away, the snow capped mountains rise and fall on Zhitian fog sea, which is very spectacular and makes people feel heroic. When the clouds disperse and look down at the clouds, there are dozens of ice lakes in peacock blue around the glacier, surrounded by rhododendrons all over the mountains, which is very beautiful and spectacular. The "Lingyun waterfall" is like a huge hada dedicated to distinguished guests by the hospitable Tibetan people, which adds holiness and auspiciousness to the beautiful scenery. The meadow full of flowers in the distance is like a colorful land at the foot of the glacier The blanket is so beautiful that it makes people feel relaxed and open-minded. When people are searching for the legendary Shangri La, tourists prefer to believe in their own eyes and feelings, which is not true! It's Shangri La. It's shangri la!

Glacier II and III of Dagu glacier are located on the left side of glacier I, and they are connected with glacier I side by side. Each glacier has its own characteristics. The two glaciers extend to the top of Dagu snow mountain, which is very spectacular. There is also an ice cave on glacier II, which is unfathomable. Standing on the edge of the ice cave, you can see the crystal like ice ridges and icicles in different shapes. It's amazing. Around Dagu glacier, there are many rare animals, such as golden monkey, bison, Zhangzi, argali, liangzhuniao, etc. they can often be seen walking leisurely on the ridge or playing in groups, adding infinite vitality to this hundred million year old ancient glacier. Dagu glacier scenic area is a colorful three-dimensional ecological world integrating the beauty of ancient glaciers, the mystery of primitive forests, the magnificence of high mountains and waterfalls, and the paradise of wild animals. It will become a world-famous fairy mountain Pavilion in the near future.
