Kunlun Mountain Pass! (499)

The Kunlun Pass is located in the southwest of Qinghai Province and belongs to the eastern section of the Kunlun Mountains. It is the only way from Qinghai and Gansu to Tibet. It is also a major pass on the Qinghai-Tibet Highway 🛣️! Kunlun Mountain is the symbol of the Chinese nation and the cradle of Chinese myths and legends. Therefore, it is known as the "Mother of National Mountains"! The Kunlun Pass markers are: The main monument (4767 meters above sea level), secondary monument, accompanying monuments and sculptures. On the south side of the monument are the Kunlun Mountain Monument and the Jiesang Suonandajie Monument! In memory of the outstanding Tibetan son 👦 who sacrificed his life to protect the wildlife in Hoh Xil 🦒! The Taoist culture of Kunlun Mountain is an ancient part of Chinese culture. The stories handed down from generation to generation by the Chinese people, such as "Chang'e Flying to the Moon", "Journey to the West" and "The Legend of the White Snake", are all related to Kunlun Mountain. Now it has become a place of pilgrimage for Taoists at home and abroad! Famous attractions: Nachitai, Kunlun Spring, Kunlun Bridge, etc.
