With an average altitude of 4,200 meters, Jiatang hosts large stretches of wetlands and alpine meadows. Every summer when the grassland is covered with silky, emerald coats, herders in Jiatang temporarily part from their brick houses. They round up their yaks to the summer pastures in the valleys. The hillside is adorned with cattle and sheep indulging in the aromatic grasses.
