Suopo watchtower

"Suopo" means "Mongolian" in Tibetan. It is said that there were a large number of Mongolians grazing here in ancient times, so it is named. Suopo is the most concentrated place of ancient blockhouses in the whole Danba and even in the whole world, with a total of 84, including the only Wujiao blockhouse in the world, whose value is self-evident.

Introduction to scenic spots

Looking at the watchtowers across the bank, the watchtowers opposite are majestic and spectacular against the background of blue sky and white clouds. The ancient buildings that have withstood 100 or even 1000 years of wind and rain, the baptism of war and the test of earthquake still stand between the cliffs on both sides of the river valley.

Danba has the largest number of ancient watchtowers in China, which is known as the "ancient country of thousands of watchtowers". Suopo is the most concentrated place of Danba watchtowers. Looking at these towering watchtowers from a distance, it is very shocking.
