Towering green mountains flank the area\u2014lower slopes are covered in shrubs, while dense spruce and pine forests dominate the upper elevations. In the middle lies a wide, orderly expanse of lush grassland.<br\/><br\/>Crystal-clear streams wind through the meadow, and thousands of wildflowers bloom throughout the seasons. Wooden fences, cabins, and scattered Tibetan villages dot the landscape, while shifting mountain mist adds to the serenity. Snowy peaks, verdant forests, and idyllic pastures paint a poetic \u201chighland living scroll.\u201d<br\/><br\/>Through tourism development, Lulang has helped local farmers and herders increase their income, shifting from logging to tree planting in efforts to preserve the ecosystem.
