Shangri-la Birang Canyon
The Shangri-la Canyon also Grand
Birang Canyon is located at the foot of Minor
Snow Mountian in Geza township, about 103 kms
from the Shangri-la. The scenery of the valley
amazes many people. The plant research groups
from China and Sweden call it a mysterious valley.
The valley is steep and narrow, with walls of
some 1,000 meters high, the most narrow part of
the canyon is only 10 meters between the two sides.
As a saying goes that a sky chasm is produced
by a narrow line in between the valley and stones
are the gates of the two-mountain valley.
The Birang River roars along
the Birang Valley with rough waves and roaring
noises. The valley has cut itself to a depth of
200 to 1,000 meters, passing through the fairytale
land in 2.5 km forming up a marvelous spectacle
full of legendary spirits and secluded spot.
