West of Minya Konka 1929


watchtowers2, originally uploaded by mutikonka1.

This is the Chengzi valley, which runs to the west of Minya Konka (Gongga Shan) between Yulongxi and the Chiprin La (Pass).

It used to be the main travel route connecting Kangding with Yunnan but has now been supeceded by the Jiulong-Kangding road.

Some of the watchtowers are still standing [see above].
