Gannan Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture in Gansu is located in the southwest of Gansu Province, on the northeastern edge of the Qinghai-Tibetan Plateau, and is home to many ethnic groups, including Tibetans and Chinese, and is known as "Little Tibet". With an average altitude of more than 3,000 meters above sea level, Gannan Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture is home to vast grasslands (such as Meiren Grassland), deep canyons (such as Zagana Stone City), clear plateau lakes (such as Ga Hai), and Tibetan Buddhist shrines (such as Labrang Monastery and Langmusi Monastery). The unique blend of natural and humanistic landscapes, grassland flowers in summer, snowy landscapes in winter, and the intertwining of meridians, streamers and pastoral songs create a rich Tibetan flavor on the plateau. As an important node of the Silk Road, Gannan preserves the original ecology and carries multiple cultures, making it an ideal destination for experiencing Tibetan culture and exploring natural wonders.
