Balagezong Grand Canyon offers breathtaking natural scenery. Here, you can visit the deep canyon, the awe-inspiring snowy mountains. You can choose to kayak in the valley, or visit the primitive, photogenic ancient Tibetan villages. You will also see a thousand-year Bodhi tree, the branch of which resembles human palms. It's quite fantastic. The naturally-formed Buddhist tower is also a special attraction in the park. You have to trek from the end of the Jiala village road in order to visit the Buddhist tower.

This is an amazing place and somewhere I’d recommend everyone visiting Shangri-La visit. The bus runs from near the old town in the morning and you arriving back by maybe 7pm. The walking parts of the national park are some of the most spectacular places you will see in Yunnan!
The landscape is absolutely breathtaking and is definirely worth a visit. The most courageous ones will have a chance to kayak and use a zipline across two sides of the mountain.
when I came to Shangri-La, one of my friends told me the story of Si Na Ding Zhu,and how he made a road to Balagezong. It was so amazing. Then we went there by car. Arriving at the scenic, the staffs are very warm-heartedand friendly. after a short relax, we went to Gezong Holy Mountain, Great Canyon, Bala Village and Plateau Lake. oh, my gold! it''s a so long junery and I was a little tired at last, but it''s so beautiful and wonderful, with the power of natural. The Bala village gives me the most profound impact, It just like someplace from the ancient time. people were so friendly and they arouse my mind something, that is about life and living. Now, I''ve come back to New York, I should love my famliy, my friends, my work,and my life more. That is an amazing Balagezong and if I have time, I must go there the second time with my family!!!
I was shocked when I came to Balagezong! The Balagezong has the story of the heroic figure of the contemporary Yugongsina, with beautiful starry sky and beautiful scenery. Bingquan Health Toast Manor has excellent service. Special manor housekeeper Ram and travel guide Xiao Yang Xiaojiang carefully arranged our four-day itinerary, which made our second trip to Balagezong this year perfect!
