Cuopugou National Forest Park is located in Chaluo Township between Litang County and Batang County, and the Sichuan-Tibet Line of National Highway 318 passes through the mouth of the valley. Cuopugou is a collection of snow mountains, forests, lakes, hot springs and pastures, which is quite Swiss. With beautiful scenery and different seasons, it is a dazzling pearl on the Sichuan-Tibet line. Cuopu Valley is famous for its Cuopu Lake, which is surrounded by mountains, close to Zhajinjiabo sacred mountain with peculiar mountain shape, with Nitegangri Peak on the front, surrounded by virgin forests, beautiful scenery, and fish schools in the lake shuttle, which is an original ecology scenery. In the woods by the lake stands the Cuopu Temple. Around the temple, groups of Tibetan horse pheasants can be seen foraging here, without fear of monks and pedestrians. The monks in the Gein Temple fed and raised for a long time, and gradually the wild animals no longer feared humans, and even strung into the temple unscrupulously to look for food, which was a spectacle. Another unique landscape of Cuopugou is the hot spring group in Chaluo Township. Numerous springs are scattered on hillsides, in forests, in fields, under cliffs, in caves, and beside rivers. Intermittent fountains and long-flowing hot springs are rising with hot air, permeating the entire valley, and the hot air follows the sunlight. Flickering, thickening, brightening, darkening, the scene is spectacular. The exquisite riding skills of the herdsmen in the Cuopugou area are well-known in Kham District and enjoy the reputation of "the hometown of equestrianism". In June of the Tibetan calendar every year, in addition to holding horse races, Cuopu Temple also hosts large-scale mountain and lake sacrifices, which is very lively.

Because it's the off-season, driving into the scenic area is the best option. I took the scenic area shuttle bus, but there aren't many buses during the off-season, so you have to stay in the same car and sit in the same spot. This greatly shortens your sightseeing time to only about 2.5 hours, which is not enough. If you want to enjoy the area at a leisurely pace, you should drive into the scenic area yourself.

Sister Lake is a dazzling pearl on the Sichuan-Tibet line - Haizishan Nature Reserve is located between Batang and Litang. It is the largest ancient glacier relic on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau and is famous for its "Daocheng Ancient Ice Cap". "Sister Lake", also called "Glasses Lake", lies quietly on Haizi Mountain, like two beautiful and shy girls waiting to be married, looking so holy. Surrounded by snow-capped peaks, she is like two bright stars. The pearl is like two drops of tears from the snow-capped mountains, sprinkled at the foot of the mountain.

Cuopu Lake is located in Batang County, Sichuan Province, at an altitude of 4,100 meters. Although it is less than 40 kilometers away from National Highway 318, the road conditions are poor, there is no mobile phone signal in the ditch, and there are few tourists. The local villagers live in a relatively primitive way. Tourists usually start from Batang, and after more than two hours in Cuopu Valley, they finally reach Cuopu Lake. The beautiful scenery in front of them makes all the hard work along the way go to nothing. Suddenly, I was reluctant to disturb the tranquility here. I walked forward silently, and found that in the process of getting closer and closer, the picture of Cuopu Lake at each step was different, whether it was the level, color, and texture.

We were supposed to go directly to Litang! But when we arrived in Batang, it was already getting dark in the county town! We were so hungry that we had to fill our stomachs! We stayed in Batang for one night. After leaving Batang, we drove along the winding mountain roads and rivers on National Highway 318! Both banks were already green! The mountain flowers were in full bloom! The rapeseed flowers were golden and pleasing! The temple stood solemnly by the river! Everyone was in awe!
