Qilian Mountain Grassland

At a distance of 120 kilometers from Ganzhou city and located at the foot of Qilian mountain, Qinghai province, in the northwest of China, Qilian Mountain Grassland has an average elevation of between 4,000 and 5,000 meters above sea level.
"Qilian" is a Hun Chinese term referring to the "heavenly mountain." Nowadays, Uighur people still call Qilian the "heavenly mountain." The good climate and weather of the grassland has earned the grassland the name of "golden lotus prairie," as it has much water and is lush and fresh.
· Note: Please be aware of altitude sickness when visiting Qilian Grassland. Also, there are no obvious seasonal differences in weather on the grassland, which makes traveling at any point of the year a good proposition.
