The Tongtian River is one of the five large rivers in the endorheic basin region of the Yunnan-Guizhou Plateau in China.1 Its length is 813 kilometres, draining an area of 138,000 square kilometres. Pilgrims go to the river because it is mythical, but also it is known for its "sutra bridge" and "Gyiana Mani stones."2
