Yangba Meiyuan Valley
阳坝梅园沟
A 4A-rated forest canyon scenic area with Crescent Moon Pool, Swan Lake, and Crabapple Valley along the stream, known as the “Little Jiangnan of Longshang.”
Meiyuan Valley lies in Yangba Town in southern Kang County. It has a northern subtropical climate, dense forest cover, and clear stream water. The valley has more than ten sights, including Crescent Moon Pool, Swan Lake, Crabapple Valley, and Sleeping Buddha Mountain, and a round-trip hike along the streamside boardwalk takes about 3–4 hours. Admission is about 50–60 yuan (subject to the scenic area’s official announcement). It is about 80 km of mountain road from the Kang County seat, so staying in Yangba Town is recommended. Watch for falling rocks on the roads during the rainy season.
