Yading
Yading is a national level reserve in the southwest of Sichuan Province, China. Unknown to the outside world until the late 1990s, it is a mountain sanctuary and major pilgrimage site comprising three 6000m+ peaks sanctified by the 5th Dalai Lama and seen as emanations of the three boddhisatvas Chenrezig, Jampayang and Chenadorje.
