Gangcha Grassland is located in Gangcha Tibetan Pastoral Township in the southwestern part of the county, with the Xun-Tong Highway running through it. It is the only purely pastoral township in the agricultural area of eastern Qinghai, with an average elevation of about 3,280 meters and a total area of 467.81 square kilometers, accounting for 22.28% of the county's total area. It allows visitors to experience the scenery of a vast grassland pastoral area without having to cross the Riyue Mountain. Here, rolling mountains stretch as far as the eye can see, vast and boundless, with lush water and grass, birds singing and flowers blooming, and herds of cattle and sheep grazing leisurely. The best time to visit is from June to August, when you can temporarily leave behind the hustle and bustle of the city and fully enjoy the serene, expansive, and beautiful natural scenery. A summer poem of the grassland:
Vast green fields stretch to the sky, morning sun and dew with stars nearby;
Flowers bloom in rich array, butterflies and birds dance and play.
Pale clouds and green hills by springs so clear, clear shepherd songs drift from afar and near;
Graceful mountains and beautiful views appear, cattle and sheep roam free, nature draws near.
