Three Parallel Rivers: a Must See in China
June 19, 2011
by zoltan
One of the most exotic and beautiful areas of China is the Three Parallel Rivers of Yunnan Protected Areas. Tourists can find here rapid-flowing rivers, soaring mountains, great ethnic cultures and rare plants and animals. Here you will also find the world-famous Lijiang Old Town and Shangri-la.
Extraordinary Geography and Beautiful Scenes
This region has many tall mountains, deep gorges, a number of highland lakes and great plateau wetlands. The site has 1.7 million hectares and features sections of the upper parts of Yangtze, Mekong, and Salween rivers. Actually the area has been named after the three rivers that run parallel thorough the steep gorges. There is one point where the Mekong is only 18,6 kilometers away from Salween and 66 kilometers from Yangtze: three rivers flowing this close can not be found anywhere in the world.
The Jade Dragon Snow Mountain, Golden Hill and Mingyong Glacier are scenic spots of the gigantic mountains bordering the rivers. You can experience four seasons in only one day if you start climbing the slopes. These mountains are a holy land for pathfinders.
Rich Ethnic Cultures
The area was first known to the world as Shangri-la in the book “Lost Horizon”. In the Three Parallel Rivers area 16 exotic and admirable ethnic groups live in harmony together. They still have their culture preserved in authentic forms: the local folklore and costumes are intact and attractive. Visiting these ethnic groups is an exciting spiritual experience for many people around the world. A particularly interesting path to be followed is the ancient Tea Horse Road, an old-time tea trading path which connects Tibet with China. Here travelers will hear many memorable local legends, or they can take a walk among the ancient architecture of Lijiang and Dali. They can appreciate the 700-year old music of Naxi people, and taste delicious local food.
Wildlife & Flowers in Seasons
The Three Parallel River area is a paradise for animals and plants: many people say 25 percent of all animals inhabiting China can be found in this small area. There are yaks, golden monkeys and snow leopards to be seen, along with colorful flowers such as azaleas in spring and chrysanthemums in autumn. Tourists will encounter seas of flowers scattered among the meadow, at the sides of the lakes and in the forests.
Because of its scientific, esthetic values and colorful minority cultures here, the Three Parallel Rivers area is listed as a World Heritage Site since 2003.
