巴拉客宗 Balagezong

The Shangri-La Grand Canyon is one of the deepest canyons in Yunnan and even the whole country, with a total length of about 154 kilometers. The gorge is known as ‘high-risk, odd-shaped, and mysterious’. ‘There are gorges in the gorge, there are gorges on the gorge, crossing, and connecting’, this poem concluded the biggest feature of the Shangri-La Grand Canyon. There are hundreds of sides on the main canyon. There are many gorge valleys. These gorges are mostly typical glacial water gorges. The glacial water gorges are mainly distributed on high-altitude snow-capped mountains. Because of the unique geological features (karst landforms) here, low-altitude glacial water canyons are formed.

巴拉村:巴拉为藏语译音,意为自巴塘而来的藏族村。相传,很久以前,格萨尔王手下一位大将厌倦了常年不断的战争生活。一日,梦见三位神女把他带到一个神山林立的仙境般的峡谷,那里没有战争,没有烦恼。翌日,他向佛教师讲述了这个美好的梦,佛教师告诉他,这是雪山山神的旨意,要你去寻找和谐宁静的家园。于是,大将带领家人和手下走了九九八十一天,为寻找梦中乐土跑遍了康巴地区的山山水水。当他们翻过崩波岗格宗雪山时已是深夜,断粮缺水、精疲力竭的人们一一昏倒在地,第二天醒来不禁惊喜万分,眼前这个山峰环绕,隔离尘世,依山傍水的地方,正是他们要找的理想家园、梦中的格宗(白色堡垒)雪山。于是,他们在此定居了下来。由于大将一家是巴塘人,所以把这里起名为巴拉村,村后面的雪山便被人们称为巴拉格宗雪山。
