The famous ones are sangjilamuse mountain, qubuma mountain, zabu mountain, nianqingshan mountain, Xiema mountain, Bailong River rushing out from the namo Grand Canyon.

In 1413, the first gelden living Buddha built a temple in the mouth of namo Grand Canyon A mountain temple, after the efforts of several generations of living Buddha, finally built the well-known geldi temple when the fifth gelden living Buddha.
Many people think that Langmu temple is the name of the temple. In fact, there are three temples here. Corresponding to geldi temple is saichi temple in Gannan Prefecture, as well as a mosque. Their full names are anduoda cangnamo monastery, namely the geldi monastery, anduoda cangsaichi monastery and Langmu mosque.
Langmu temple is a mixture of Tibetan, Hui and Han. Not only is Tibetan Buddhism and Islam full of color, but also the terrain is dangerous and beautiful. When you are driving in the desolate western mountainous area, suddenly your eyes are bright. At the entrance of Langmu Township, there is a huge red gravel rock, which is majestic and straight. It has the style of Colorado Grand Canyon in the United States.
There are more than 3000 people in Langmu temple, all of whom live by grazing. The altitude here is 3350 meters, and there are as many livestock as sheep, which are plateau yaks. Most of the herdsmen's tents are built on the hillside, and the tents are woven with yak hair. It's a custom here that yak dung is used as fuel for clothes and butter, which are made from yak dung before the age of seven.
Although Langmu temple is a small town, it is also an international one. Tourists come from all over the world, and business operators come from all over the world. This feeling is similar to that of Lijiang, but it is quite different - Lijiang is a beautiful woman, and Langmu temple is a model man. The internationalization of Langmu Temple began in the 1940s when an American missionary set foot on this magical land. He did not leave until 1957, when he lived for more than ten years. He is fully integrated into the life of the Tibetan people here. It seems that what he left behind in his missionary work is only a process. He once walked here because there are no traces of other religions except Tibetan Buddhism and Islam. The name of Langmu Temple gives people the feeling that it is a temple, not a place name. Many people think it is a big temple, but it is not. Langmu temple is mainly composed of geerdi temple in Sichuan Province and saichi temple in Gansu Province. Both temples belong to Gelug Sect of Tibetan Buddhism.

Namogerdi Temple

It is one of the major Tibetan Buddhist temples in Northwest Sichuan, and has a great influence in the Tibetan areas of Sichuan, Gansu and Qinghai provinces. The body and spirit of the fifth living Buddha of geldi, which has been worshipped in the temple for more than 200 years, are still vivid, which makes Chinese and foreign tourists sigh.
