Pudacuo National Park
In Tibetan, Pudacuo means "the boat that brings all sentient beings to the other side of the sea of suffering". It is the first national park in China and was selected for the reason of its unparalleled beauty and ecological value.
Dotted small lakes with meadows hugged around is like scattered pearls and gems on the green velvet. Glistening streams trickling trough the tranquil river valley sounds like whisper of nature. Lush forest has formed a natural shelter for the creature on this land of wonders.
The life there is never boring. You can find over 20% of the plant species in China there, as well as almost 1/4 of the animal species, though it only accounts for 0.7% of China’s land area. It is always very busy!
