Travel content

Legend has it that the four snowcapped peaks in western China's Sichuan Province were originally the four gorgeous daughters of the mountain god. Blessed with some of China’s most pristine and less explored Alpine scenery, the ethnically Tibetan Aba prefecture of west Sichuan is a trekker's paradise not to be missed. Revel in the potent mix of breathtaking scenery and opportunities to experience Tibetan and other ethnic minority lifestyles up close. From the best in Sichuanese cuisine in the provincial capital Chengdu, to a genuine outdoors adventure on the Four Sisters' Mountain, this tour offers that something extra.
