This region lays claim to some of the most breathtaking scenery in all of China – from Jiuzhai Valley National Park and Hailuogou Glacier, to one of the largest waterfalls in China, Huangguoshu Waterfall, to mysterious Shangri-La and tropical botanical garden Xishuangbanna. Weather you travel one of the Four Sacred Buddhist Mountains of China – Mount Emei, explore one of the most important Taoist centres in China – Mount Qingcheng, or take a trip through the magnificent ancient irrigation system, Dujiangyan – the cultural, geographical and ethnic diversity of this part of the World is simply overwhelming. In addition, strategies such as the “Road and Belt Initiative” and the new land-sea corridor in the west have brought more opportunities for development here.
