In early November, you can drive in Tibet’s Nyingchi Prefecture, Mainling County, known as the "Switzerland of China".

In autumn, Yarlung Zangbo Grand Canyon is brightly colored, with a string of small villages clinging to both sides of the canyon like gems. The apples, pears, walnuts and mulberries are all ripe. In the village you can admire the canyon’s autumn view while tasting autumn fruits.

Recently, travel has become more and more convenient. You can fly directly to Nyingchi Mainling Airport from five cities including Lhasa, Chongqing, Chengdu, Guangzhou and Beijing.
