The Rongbugongma Mountain is full of steep cliffs. Some of them stand vertical at almost 90 degrees. Few animals live there, except the blue sheep that can occasionally be spotted.

About 'Journeys in Nature': Sanjiangyuan series

In the Sanjiangyuan Series, we present stunning landscapes and abundant wildlife of the Sanjiangyuan Region, where the Yangtze, Yellow and Lancang rivers originate. Sanjiangyuan has earned the title "Water tower of China" because its abundant glacier resources have a freshwater reserve of 200 billion cubic meters. The reservoir has nurtured abundant wild flora and fauna such as snow leopards, Himalayan blue sheep, Thorold's deer, Tibetan wild asses, and vultures.
