The highest peak in Yunnan

The highest point in Yunnan Province is Kawalpo of Meili Snow Mountain, which is about 6740 meters above sea level.

From Deqin County, Yunnan Province, along the Yunnan-Tibet Highway to Feilai Temple, 10 km, I saw the ice peak stretching for hundreds of miles across the Lancang River, like a knife and axe, with extraordinary momentum. This is the famous Prince Snow Mountain centered on Kawagebo. Meili Snow Mountain has Prince 13 peak, carvajal Slope is the highest one, with an altitude of 6,740 meters, which is the highest peak in Yunnan, and carvajal Slope is Tibetan.

In Tibetan scriptures, it is called Rongzan Kawagebo, which means the steep and majestic peak of snow-capped mountains in the valley in Chinese. In Tibetan semantics, the so-called Kawagebo not only refers to the highest mountain peak, but also includes several towering snow peaks. In Tibetan Buddhism, the legend of Kawagebozan is the protector of the Kagyu Sect, ranking first among the eight sacred mountains in Tibetan areas.

Travel information

In late autumn and early spring, Kawagebo spent most of his time in Wan Li. The spotless blue sky and dazzling white clouds give people unlimited leisure and emotion. At this time, the magic is the change of clouds on the mountain of God. At dawn, the earth is empty and the sky is cloudless. Xuefeng is still eye-catching in the dark background. When the first ray of warm orange sunshine shines on the snow peak, the sound of birds can break the silence.

When the sun kisses all over the valley, fine fog will rise in the valley, and the fog will get thicker and higher. The dark coniferous belt under the snow peak forms a white cloud belt, which Tibetans call Kawagebo Xianhada. At this time, it is around 8-9 in the morning, and there are the most people who come to Feilai Temple on the other side of the snow mountain to burn incense. It is the greatest blessing for people to enjoy this scene. Because Tibetans keep offering Hada and other artifacts to the sacred mountain in their contacts with the sacred mountain.
