On the southeastern tip of the Qinghai Tibetan plateau, Ganzi, Sichuan, at elevations ranging from around 1,500 to 7,000 meters, boasts unparalleled mountain tourism resources and, as roughly translated from the Chinese, has been nicknamed the "Open Air Heaven in the Orient". Looking forward, the tourism authorities in Ganzi plan to continue to drive the socio-economic development of tourism across the entire region, creating a unique and unparalleled travel destination consisting of Minya Konka in the east, the area surrounding Yading in the south and the Gesar cultural tourism zone in the north, in a move to transform the area's tourism resource advantages into economic advantages that will serve to improve the lot of local inhabitants, while attracting interested investors and travelers from all over the world.
