| Hailuo Gou (Conch Valley) National Glacier Forest Park (Chinese: 海螺沟;pinyin: hǎiluógōu): Hailuogou National Glacier Forest Park is the biggest glacier park in China. The glacier descends the southeastern side of Sichuan's highest peak, the 7,556m (24,790-ft) Gongga mountain. The Hailuo Gou's Glacier tongue at 3,720m (12,205-ft) makes it the lowest and most accessible glacier in Asia. It boasts three characters: it is the lowest altitude glacier at the same altitude; high activity, and has the most integrity of glaciered landform. These characters make Hailuogou even better than glacier parks in Alaska of United States and Canada.
Hailuogou Glacier, formed 16 million years ago, is one of the wonder of nature in the world. When you see this glacial formation, you can’t help but marvelling at the elaborated handiwork of nature. |
