Tianyaoshuiping is the location of the gate of Yanzigou and one of the most important service areas of Yanzigou. Three majestic peaks stand tall on the right side of the mountain gate. They are the three sacred peaks of the Gongga Mountains - the three main peaks. Tianyaoshuiping is the place where Yanzigou Pilgrimage Road begins, with an altitude of 2,588 meters. It is named after Tianyao Spring under Guanyin Peak. The gate of Yanzigou stands in the middle of Tianyaoshuiping, majestic and majestic. The top of the mountain gate is paved with pure gold, which shines brightly in the sun. During the snow season in autumn and winter, the Golden Gate of the Gate and the snow-capped mountains glow correspondingly, forming the unique spectacle of Golden Gate reflecting the snow in Yanzigou.

The medicinal spring water also contains potassium, sodium, calcium, magnesium, ferrous ions, ferric ions, silica colloid, strontium, Barium, radon, etc. have high medical value and magical health care effects.

There are two trees at the mouth of Pisces. One is a hemlock, and the other is also a hemlock. It has a history of hundreds of years. Looking to the west from between the two trees, water flowing from the snow-capped mountains for thousands of years is rushing down, creating a myriad of scenes. When the water is small, the river surface is very calm. If it rains on the mountain, flash floods will fill the entire river bank overnight. The floods are like ten thousand white horses galloping, just like many Gongga mountain gods collectively patrolling. The momentum is quite amazing.

In the place of the fish's mouth, there are two eyes made of white jade, and next to it is a basin of water coming down from the snow-capped mountains. Friends can dip their hands in the water of the sanctuary and touch the eyes of the fish, so as to bring blessing and wealth home. The mandala is also called a mandala, which means an altar or a monastery. It is the Dharma palace of various deities. Tantra practitioners use it as an object of meditation, and then view their own bodies as mandala, and the deities reside on the lotus seats in their hearts. Above, that is, contemplating the deity in one's own body, and never leaving it for a moment. Over time, one's practice will become more profound, and one's body, speech, and mind will be indistinguishable from the deity. This will lead to the highest state of becoming a Buddha in one's own body.

Along the way, tourists will enjoy the unique beauty of Yanzigou on the road to Buddhahood, worship the mandala of Chakrasamvara and Naru Dakini, and experience the secret realm of Acharya. Mandala means the world. When we enter the Buddha's Mandala, we also enter the Buddha's world. This is also one of the most essential parts of our Yanzigou Scenic Area. In Buddhism, a mandala is a place where the essence of the Buddha's world is expressed, meaning that practitioners can extract the essence of life by imagining ordinary images of themselves, sentient beings, and the external environment as the holy image of a mandala. Everything in the mandala is essentially bliss and the wisdom of dakinism. The Climbing Stairway is the only way to reach the pure realm of Yanzigou Mandala. There are 432 steps in total, which represents 108 groups of four immeasurable hearts - compassion, joy and equanimity. The four immeasurable hearts are the four broad altruistic hearts in Tibetan Buddhism, which are the four hearts of kindness, compassion, joy, and equanimity that arise from enabling countless sentient beings to escape suffering and achieve happiness. In addition, in Tibetan Buddhism, the number 108 has rich connotations. It represents 108 troubles in life, or the merits of 108 Buddhas, 108 kinds of immeasurable samadhi, etc.

There is a row of prayer wheels on the right hand side of the ladder. If you have been to Tibetan areas, you will find that prayer wheels are everywhere in this land, around major temples.

In the center of the Chakrasamvara Mandala is a tall tree, with branches branching out from the trunk, symbolizing the mutual dependence of the Buddha and his mother. The mandala is composed of four Vajra walls and four Vajra pillars. The eight-petaled lotus flower on the top of the mandala represents the eight great Buddha mothers in Tibetan Buddhism. They are Vajra Sea Mother, Yama Queen Mother, Foolish Blind Mother, Guardian Mother, Deterrence Mother, and Hairpin. Zhiga Buddha Mother, Lucky Heavenly Mother and Mudra Mother. According to the prophecies of eminent monks and eminent monks, devout worship and practice of Chakrasamvara can purify all living beings’ karmic obstacles in body, speech, and mind, reveal the wisdom of equality, quickly realize the Buddha’s own nature, and enter the world of Buddha.

In this place, the view is already wider. Visitors can enjoy the beautiful scenery of Yanzigou here. The air in Chakrasamvara Mandala is fresh, and when the birds are singing and the flowers are fragrant in spring, I walk slowly on this path paved with random stones, adjusting my pace and breathing rhythm, and my body and mind are completely relaxed. Dense vegetation, randomly placed stones, the surrounding majestic mountains, the condors flying high in the sky, and the plants and trees underfoot form a mysterious and profound Buddha's world. The top of the "Three Body Pavilion" is shaped like two three leaves, which respectively represent the three bodies of the Buddha: Dharma body, Sambhogakaya and Ying body. The body means gathering, gathering all dharmas to form the body, so the gathering of rational dharmas is called dharma body, the gathering of wisdom dharmas is called sambhogakaya, and the gathering of merit dharmas is called response body.

The pavilion is built according to a tall beauty cuckoo. Viewed from a distance, it looks like the beautiful cuckoo is stretching out its arms to gently embrace the Sanshen Pavilion. From the three directions of Sanshen Pavilion, you can enjoy three kinds of scenery: on the right is Wenshan Mountain, which is covered with snow all year round; on the opposite side, you can see the monkeys on the strange peaks offering honey; on the left, you can see the spectacle of ten thousand peaks competing against the red stone beach.

Holy Monkey Offering Honey Opposite Sanshen Pavilion, there is a mountain that resembles a monkey's head. It is called Holy Monkey Offering Honey. It is recorded in "The Life of Sakyamuni" and "Records of the Western Regions of the Tang Dynasty" that when Sakyamuni was practicing in Wangshe City, in addition to many disciples accompanying him in his pious practice, there was also a divine monkey beside him. He served Sakyamuni meticulously and thoughtfully every day in his daily life, scripture study and other matters. What made Sakyamuni feel most considerate was that the monkey would get up early every day to offer him fresh honey collected from Yanzigou in Gongga Mountain. Later, Sakyamuni practiced Buddhism and became a Buddha. The monkey was praised by the Buddha for his excellent service. However, the monkey fell into the valley because he was too excited. When he died, he still offered honey to the Buddha.

Later, in order to thank and commemorate this sacred monkey, Sakyamuni Buddha turned it into a high mountain. From a distance, it looks like a sacred monkey offering honey. It is located in Xiaonan on Gongga. The edge of Menguan Valley has become a sacred mountain for people to worship.

From the right hand side, along the direction of Nanmenguangou, you can see a tall snow mountain. The name of this snow mountain is Wenfeng. The lower part of the snow mountain is washed by the melted ice and snow water flowing down from the high mountain. steep cliffs. Linniuping is named after the takin. Takin is a rare wild animal in Yanzigou. It looks like both a sheep and a cow. It lives in forests, shrubs or meadows above an altitude of 2,000 meters and feeds on the young branches and leaves of broad-leaved trees such as willow, birch, and green hills. They will come here and stay here when it is cold in winter or when they go down the mountain to drink hot springs. Especially the takin walking alone, they like to hang around here for a while, as if they are thinking about something, making Takiniping look very mysterious. Linniuping is a multi-functional leisure distribution center in Yanzigou. Visitors can enjoy Tibetan meals, make butter tea, and participate in ethnic activities here, so that tourists can better understand the customs and customs of Yanzigou. In addition to the rich folk atmosphere, Yanzigou provides Cordyceps tea for everyone here. The cordyceps used in the tea are all wild species dug out of the mountains above 4,000 meters above sea level. They are dried and made directly into tea without any human treatment. They are much more precious than the cordyceps we see in the city.

Lingniuping is one of the tourist leisure and entertainment centers in Yanzigou. It is equipped with high-end supporting facilities such as high-end coffee houses, tea bars, and high-end restaurants. Sitting in the restaurant, you can look out the window at the Gonggar Snow Mountains and taste delicious delicacies from the secret realm of Tibet. Lingniuping's delicious food is unique green food. From the selection of ingredients to cooking techniques, from water source utilization to waste disposal, they all meet environmental protection and low-carbon requirements, and can ensure the nutrition of the food.

When I am relaxing in this kind of environment, I feel like I am surrounded by nature, and I am surrounded by nature.

At Haizidang Rhododendron Terrace, you can not only view the rhododendrons and willow forests all over the mountains and plains, but also enjoy the Tea Glacier, the second glacier in Yanzigou, at close range. We have seen glaciers as white as jade, and we have also seen glaciers that are mud-colored due to mixed sand and stones, but the tea glacier in Yanzigou is like a cup of tea. The tea color is rich and elegant. Among the glaciers in the world, it is the same as the Yulin Glacier. Same, same rare.

At the end of the rhododendron forest is a vast melting meadow and alpine sea left behind after the retreat of glaciers. Crossing Haizi and turning around a small ridge, you will arrive at the Gongga Glacier Observation Deck, where there will be three white glaciers. These three glaciers originate from the main peak of Gongga and pour down from the main peak. Standing opposite them, you can feel them coming towards you with the main peak of Gongga. After these three glaciers met at the bottom of the valley, they meandered along the valley floor and headed straight to the entrance of the ice cellar, which was majestic and shocking. The sea of ??azaleas is one of the most beautiful scenery in Yanzigou in spring. At places like Mandala Realm, Saint Draman, Takin Ping and Rhododendron Sea, beauty rhododendron, alpine rhododendron and visiting rhododendron are inoculated. As soon as spring arrives, all the rhododendrons in Yanzigou will bloom quietly, making Yanzigou colorful.
