Xinduqiao

Photographer’s Paradise – Xinduqiao
Passing along the south line of
Sichuan-Tibet Highway
and about 80 kilometers away from the west of Kangding County, you will find many typical Tibetan villages situated beside a river at the foot of a mountain and spreading on the sides of the highroad, here is Xinduqiao known as the Photographer’s Paradise with an altitude of about 3300 meters.

Capacious yards with white walls and vermilion gates, stone built houses, red, black and white windows symbolizing flourishing population and sun, moon or triangle patterns symbolizing an abundant harvest of all food crops on the windows, which are the features of the Tibetan houses. Tibetans are extremely hospitable, so you can enjoy your photographing.
