0 Comment(s)Print E-mail China.org.cn, July 25, 2016

Located in a border area connecting Gansu, Qinghai and Sichuan provinces, Langmusi Town is known as "Oriental mini-Switzerland" with its mysterious Tibetan Buddhist culture and picturesque primitive landscape.

Named after the Tibetan lamasery of Langmu built in 1748, the town was world-famous for a foreign churchman's propaganda in the 1940s.

Today, tourism has become the town's pillar industry, attracting hundreds of thousands of tourists from home and abroad every year.[China.org.cn]
