We went for a Ganjia grassland excursion, it was organized by the hotel reception at the Overseas Tibetan Hotel. The ride was a bit rough coz of the current repairs on the roads but once we were over it, we really got to enjoy the open grasslands with the noamds grazing their yak and sheep. We visited a nomad family and had some yak butter tea with them. Later we also visited the Ancient Bajiao village and the Black hat bon monastery. It was a wonderful day trip, highly recommend it

it's nice but only if you have been enough time at xiahe itself, it's not a "must" and if you have only a day or two - it is much advised to stay at xiahe

We enjoyed an afternoon out at the Ganjia grasslands, it was not green like it is supposed to be during the summer, but we still enjoyed the countryside and the tibetan nomads and the yak and sheep. At the same time, you can also visit the black hat monastery and the ancient Bajiao village. I liked the Black hat monastery with the small village by it

Another grazing area lies further up the highway towards Xining and a little town with a picturesque temple complex. You can ride out on a bike or if you just want to pass by, do it on the 6:10 a.m. bus to Xining.

our trip to the ganjia grasslands made the trip to xiahe worth the effort. Hire a minivan taxi driver at the bus stop to take you there. It should only cost around 200 yuan. The driver should take you to a tibetan cave (which was unfortunately closed for the winter), an ancient walled city and a tibetan monestary. Make sure you take cash because the villagers will want you to pay an "entry tax". Amazing scenary makes the trip a welcome relief from staying in xiahe. Highly recommended.
