Kangding is a stop worth making a special stop in the hometown of love songs. For 2 days and 1 night, between Paoma Mountain and Zheduo River, encounter the unique atmosphere of Kangding.
Before venturing deep into Kangding, the presence of Paoma Mountain had already arrived. From afar, seeing that scene, even the fatigue from traveling quietly eased, and I just wanted to stand a little longer.
The Zheduo River is the most captivating part of Kangding. Following its veins slowly, every corner hides a different expression, stretching time and space here.
Avoiding the crowds and slipping into Mugecuo, Kangding reveals its true self. Old people, alleys, stoves, and laughter all settle into your memories before the scenic spots.
After nightfall, the Kangding Love Song Festival lights up, and the warm yellow glow turns the grandeur of the day into gentleness. Sitting down and doing nothing is also a form of arrival.
When leaving Kangding, I felt a bit reluctant, but what played in my mind was Paoma Mountain. But it was precisely this reluctance that proved the trip was worthwhile—it quietly left a part of itself with you.
