The whole region is covered in grasslands during the summer months and makes an enjoyable place to see some wide open spaces.
桑科草原
wonderful grasslands with many nomad tents and herds of yaks and sheep. 12 km outside Xiahe is Sangke town, where most people who rent a bike go to. There is nothing to see in the town, you really need to go into the grasslands to enjoy the wonderful views.
Bajiao Cheng - 八角城
A walled village that was built in the Han Dynasty (around 2000 years ago). Bajiao Cheng is still inhabited.
Bai Shi Ya - 白石崖
As you get closer to Bajiao Cheng, you won't be able to miss the cliffs high up in front of you. A small monastery sits right at the foot of the White Rock Cliffs. There is a small village together with the monastery.
