Kangding

Kangding, the capital of Ganzi prefecture, is made famous by a song called Kangding Ballad. Actually, Kangding was already an important courier station from the inland to Tibet, a distribution center for trade between Han people and Tibetans, as well as an important tea-horse trade town during the Yuan Dynasty.

Kangding

Mugecuo, the largest of all alpine lakes with an altitude of 2000 meters and above in Sichuan, in northern Kangting. In the morning, the lake was as clear and calm as a mirror, reflecting the mountain and their snow-covered peaks near it; in the afternoon, billowing waves making thundering sounds broke the lake’s tranquility; at dusk, the lake glistens with golden lights and the ever-changing scenery never fails to wow a tourist.
