    "Basongcuo is really beautiful! Climb up the observation deck at sunset, the lake is like a blue mirror! Snow mountains, forests, lakes, and landscapes are very rich. Although the new measures hidden in the depths are difficult to reach, they are really great value!"

    "Incomparably shocking, it is worth a visit. The weather is very beautiful when it is good. If you have the ability to go to Yalong, it will be even better. You can ride horses inside, there are not so many places to hike, and the physical strength is not high. As long as you have adapted to the plateau before, it will be fine."

    Highlights: Many glaciers surrounding Laigu Village have formed many ice lakes in front of the village. Due to the different geology and soil composition of different glaciers, each ice lake will reflect different colors. There is a large ice lake floating on the ice lake. Big and small icebergs. Between the end of the glacier and the glacial lake, the broken glacier reveals a layer of blue ice tens of meters high. In Laigu Village, you can see Meixi Glacier, Yalong Glacier, Ruojiao Glacier, Dongga Glacier, Xiongjia Glacier and Niuma Glacier. Because all these glaciers surround Laigu Village, they are collectively called Laigu Glaciers ( Note: Due to the changing seasons of glaciers, the viewing period of each glacier is different, and the scenery seen at different times is different.) Among them, the Yalong Glacier, which is 12 kilometers long at the eastern end of Gangrigabu Mountain, is more majestic. It is more than 6,000 meters above sea level. The main peak extends to the edge of Laigu Village at an altitude of about 4,000 meters. The simple village road along the Ranwu Lake, even if you have reached the ancient village, the Laigu Village with more than 70 households still maintains the original Tibetan village style of half farming and half pastoralism. The houses in the village are relatively scattered, subdivided into several smaller villages and settlements such as Shatuna, Lanage, Qu'e, and Ranmu. The distance between the villages is two to three kilometers, and there are fields between the small villages. ridge.

    "At 3 pm, I came to Cuomu and Ri in the north of the city. This is a niche point. What attracted me was that it turned into Chinese and was "Guanyin's tears." Didi went to the tourist service center of the scenic spot and suddenly it rained heavily. I found that I was only a tourist. The fat sister in Tibetan clothes discussed with me and asked me to wait until the reception of the scenic spot at 3:30 to see if there were any tourists, so I could go up together. The road up the mountain is 18 kilometers, the back and forth is 36 kilometers, the ticket is 90 yuan, the traffic ticket is 60 yuan, and the 㬌 District bus is 18 seats. The rain was getting bigger and bigger. At 3:30, several tourists came to the locals and drove up the mountain in a private car. I have been a business and know the cost. I said to my eldest sister, "Otherwise, I won't go up, Trip.com booked tickets, no use to refund." The eldest sister saw my entanglement, smiled and said, "Come all, go up the mountain!" So, a Chinese bus carrying a tour guide and a tourist up and down the mountain, After 2 hours of walking through the regular tour route in the rain. From the visitor center to the top of the mountain, the "ice lake" of more than 4,100 meters has a difference of more than 1,300 meters. The guide explained to me the trees growing at different altitudes and the flowers scattered along the way. In the "ice lake", I asked the guide girl in Tibetan clothes whether she was Han or Tibetan, and she smiled and told me that she was Tibetan. When I went down the mountain, I asked the driver the same question, he told me he was "half Tibetan", see me puzzled, he explained "mother is Han, father is Tibetan" back down the mountain, the rain stopped, the distant town bathed in the golden sunset, quiet and peaceful. They are the closest to the sun."

    "Tickets + shuttle bus are not expensive. Go to the parking spot to go to the observation deck. You can ride horses or walk. The horse riding is only 100 yuan without bargaining. It is very tired for the Tibetans who are horse and horse. This price is worth it. It is not recommended to walk very steep. Someone walks back for a few minutes to ride a horse 😂, but it’s okay, but I can’t touch the glacier. Generally speaking, it’s not a loss to come in."

    Highlights: Midui Glacier is located near Mimei and Midui villages in Yupu Township, Bomi County, Nyingchi Prefecture. It is only 8 kilometers away from National Highway 318. It is very convenient to arrive. Due to the low altitude of the ice tongue, it can be easily viewed at close range. The Midui Glacier has a handsome shape and was rated as one of the six most beautiful glaciers by China National Geographic. To watch the Midui Glacier, you must first reach Midui Village at your feet. The ticket office is about 6-7 kilometers away from Midui Village. This section of the road has poor road conditions. From Midui Village to the viewing platform, you can walk, but the distance is longer, about 2.5 kilometers, and it takes about 45 minutes. You can also ride horses, and you need to pay about 100 yuan for the round trip. After reaching the viewing platform, you can see the open glacier unfolding in front of you, which is very spectacular.

    "Very beautiful, but the most beautiful to see Shangran Wuhu, navigate to the Xiudeng Temple, that mountain pass overlooks the entire Shangran Wuhu Lake. Zhongran Wu and Xiran Wuhu are yellow in non-spring, and the view may not be so good. And Shangran Wuhu is blue blue all year round, very beautiful."

Whenever the snow and ice melt, the snow water is poured into the lake, so that there is always a rich source of water here. Ranwu Lake is surrounded by a large meadow of green grass, covered with bright wolf poisonous flowers, blue lake water and snow-capped peaks, forming a beautiful scenery. Depending on the season, the lake water also presents several colors such as blue or green, with many rocks and small islands interspersed among them.
