Best places to visit in November | Autumn in Daocheng Yading and the Three Holy Mountains

#November Destinations 2025 An autumn trip to Daocheng Yading wouldn't be complete without seeing the magnificent Three Holy Mountains. Yangmaiyong, Xiannairi, and Xiannaduoji stand in a triangular formation, their grandeur and mystery enhanced by the autumn blue sky and white clouds. Yangmaiyong, meaning "Manjushri Bodhisattva" in Tibetan, rises to 5958 meters. Its shape resembles a sharp blade piercing the clouds. Under the autumn sun, the rocks gleam with a cool, bluish-gray light, while the mountainside is shrouded in mist, like the wisdom light of Manjushri Bodhisattva shining down. Xiannairi, meaning "Avalokiteshvara Bodhisattva" in Tibetan, rises to 6032 meters. Its peak resembles a giant seated statue of Avalokiteshvara, dignified and compassionate. In autumn, the snow-capped summit contrasts beautifully with the colorful vegetation on the mountainside—reds like fire, yellows like gold, and greens like jade—creating a natural oil painting. Xiannaduoji, meaning "Vajrapani Bodhisattva" in Tibetan, stands at an altitude of 5,958 meters. Its rugged, angular shape resembles a waving vajra. In autumn, under the clear sky, it takes on an even more austere and resolute appearance.
