The only city in Sichuan built on a cliff, with an average altitude of 3 kilometers, known as 'Cliff River City'

With the development of the economy and the continuous improvement of people's living standards, more and more people like to travel now. Whenever we have free time, we want to find a place with beautiful scenery to visit and integrate with nature. Relax your mind and body. Especially the self-driving tour has been very popular in the past two years. When it comes to self-driving tours, the first thing that comes to mind is the Sichuan-Tibet line, which has been very popular in recent years. I like to travel here. When it comes to the Sichuan-Tibet line, the first thing that comes to mind is Sichuan.

The Sichuan-Tibet line has a county town built on a cliff with a drop of 3,000 meters. It is known as a cliff river city!

Although Sichuan has the word Sichuan in its name, you can hardly see any topography related to Sichuan in the local area. The name is derived from the division of administrative regions in ancient times. On the contrary, there is not so much water here, but there are some high mountains. The main landforms of this place are plateaus and basins, which are basically high in the west and low in the east. From an economic point of view, it has always been a relatively developed province in the west, but due to its terrain, some basin areas are densely populated and relatively developed, while the plateau area is relatively poor, but it is very ancient and mysterious. , such as Yajiang County.

Many routes in Yajiang County are built according to the terrain. After all, the terrain here is relatively dangerous. Many county towns in this province are built according to the mountains. For example, this Yajiang River is on the banks of the Yalong River. This is the hinterland of Kangba culture, and the terrain is very dangerous, so the county town was built on the cliff, next to the rapids of the Yajiang River. The most notable feature here is that there is very little flat land. The total area of ​​the entire county is only 0.48 square kilometers. If we want to move all of them, we must build a bridge between the two mountains.

All its streets are also built around mountains. If we walk, all of them are uphill. It is impossible to drive here, so once two cars meet, one car must drive to the end of the street. U-turn. It is precisely because of this that the local area has the reputation of "Cliff River City". With the assistance of the mainland to Tibetan areas in recent years, this crowded thousand-year-old ancient city has its own new county seat, but a bridge needs to be built between the two to connect. In this county without flat land, all roads are basically very narrow, and the local area happens to be a transition area between mountains, valleys and grasslands, so the topography difference between the two can reach up to more than 3,000 meters.
