The Miyaluo area is a typical region covered by subalpine coniferous forests in west Sichuan Province in southwestern China. Miyaluo means "a funny dam" in Tibetan.

Located in Aba Tibetan and Qiang ethnic minority Autonomous Prefecture in Sichuan Province,on the lower slopes of the snowy mountains, facing the Sichuan Basin, Miyaluo has the largest red-leaf landscape area in China. Miyaluo lies on the tourist route between Chengdu and Jiuzhaigou Valley – Huanglong. It is 263 kilometers (163 miles) from Chengdu.

The total area of the scenic spot is 3,688 square kilometers (1,424 square miles), 180 times larger than the famous Fragrant Hill red leaves scenic area in Beijing. It is currently the largest area open to the public and has the most spectacular scenery for a red leaves scenic spot. The mountains and the water are covered with red leaves. What’s more, when vehicles pass the road comes alive with swirling leaves like bursts of flame. Snow mountains, hot springs, forests, red leaves, and the culture of the Tibetan and Qiang peoples, together create a magical autumn paradise.

Miyaluo is particularly loved by photographers due to its inspiringly beautiful colors in Autumn. The place is remote and hard to access. You need to take an arranged tour if you want to visit. See China Highlights' tour to Miyaluo and the surrounding areas.
