Sun Moon Mountain – Red Mountain for its red rocks

Sun & Moon Mountain is at the east of Qinghai Lake.

The mountain was historically called Red Mountain for its red rocks. It is the boundary of the central agricultural area and the Qinghai-Tibet pastoral area. The landscapes in the east and west sides of the mountain are totally different. There are many beautiful legends about Sun & Moon Mountain, including Gesaer-operated battle at Red Mountain, Princess Wencheng’s marriage with Songzan Ganbu and etc.

There is one Sun Pavilion and one Moon Pavilion on the mountain at present.
