Manasarovar Wetland

Since ancient times, Buddhist believers have regarded it as the "center of the world" of the holy place, one of the three "God lakes" in Tibetan land. Mapang has the reputation of "mother of the world's rivers", and is the place where the high monk Xuanxuan of the Tang Dynasty called "West Tianyu Pool" in the "Great Tang Dynasty Western Regions".

Really entered the Ali area, all the way to see the beautiful scenery of the alpine grassland. I came to the long-awaited holy lake Ma next to the mistake, stopped at the foot of the mountain of Shenshangang Rinpoqi, looking at the wide plateau wetland, birds and grass deer are free to move, everything is a bit unreal. Eyes of heaven body hell, more than 10 hours a day journey is also very hard.

Mapanyu-Tsang means "the eternal unbeaten Yuhu", located at the junction of China, India and Nepal, "Shenshan" Gang Rinpoqi Mountain southeast, Namunani Snow Peak North. It is recorded that in a religious war on the lakeside in the 11th century, Tibetan Buddhism Sangju School won the black religion of the outside world, and the "Mapang" was the victory of Buddhism, which was named after the lake. In his book "The Record of the Western Regions of Datang", the Tang Dynasty high monk Xuanxuan mistakenly called Mapang "West Tianyu Lake". The natural scenery around it is very beautiful, since ancient times Buddhist believers have regarded it as the "world center" of the holy place, China's second largest natural freshwater lake, the largest transparent freshwater lake, Tibetan called one of the three "shen lakes". It is also the birthplace of the four major rivers in Asia.

Mapanyucho in Ali District is a large scenic spot. Most of them are Mapanyucho Wetlands. Wetland ecological protection area occupies a large position in the whole area... The scenery is good no matter what it is, but unfortunately in the end, I can’t tell where I am. Because basically the same, the difference is that the names of the scenic spots engraved on the stones are different...just like everyone has their own different names...Traveling to Tibet is a big challenge to physical strength...It is really necessary to do it by force, and it is necessary to greed for a while...

【Opening】: Mapanyu is also known as Mafamucho. Tibetan means "Incompetence Shenghu", located in Pulan County, Tibet, China. The natural scenery around it is very beautiful, since ancient times Buddhist believers and Benedict have regarded it as a holy place "the center of the world". The largest freshwater lake in China's lake water is transparent and elegant, one of the three "shen lakes" called by Tibetan Fa. It is also the birthplace of the four major rivers in Asia. There are many temples of various denominations around the Shenshan and Shenhu Lake, with an average altitude of 4,500 meters. Mapanyu is called the "shenhu" by Buddhism. Every summer and autumn Buddhists help the old and bring their children to this "pilgrimage", bathing in the "holy water" to "extend life". Ma Pangxuan has the reputation of "mother of the world's rivers", which is called "West Tianyu Pool" in the "Great Tang Dynasty". Mapanyuco Lake is the lake with the largest transparency measured in China. There are 8 temples around Mapanyuco, which are just distributed in all directions of the lake. There is the Sewalong Temple of the Zhigong School in the east, the Shaga Temple of the Sagar School in the southeast, the Chu Ancient Temple of the Gelu School in the south, and the Fruit Foot Temple of the Bhutanese School in the southwest. The northwest is based on the caves of 500 Luohans, the Qiwu Temple in the west, the Langna Temple in the north of Bhutan, and the Benri Temple in the Gelu school in the northeast. There is a ghost lake next to the Mapanyu wrong, which is called "Langwor" in Tibetan, meaning "toxic black lake". Mapang's mistake is a freshwater lake, and Laang's mistake is a saltwater lake. 🕘 [Opening hours]: Open all year round 💴 [Ticket price]: There is no ticket for the attraction, but the experience Tibetan project is 100 yuan once. ⛺ [Play Project]: The lake itself is the biggest feature of the attraction. Of course, the editor also recommends two play projects to everyone: 1. The valley next to the hot spring village exudes a burst of sulfur. There is a natural hot spring here. The locals process it into an open-air small bathroom. For people to take a bath. The accommodation conditions in Shenshan are poor, and taking a bath is a very impractical thing. It costs 20 yuan to pay for it. 2. It takes about 60 kilometers to turn to the lake and the holy lake. It takes4-5 days to turn to the lake. It is clockwise and needs to bring food. In addition to spending the second night in the wild, there are temples available along the way. Although hiking along the lake is not as arduous as the slopes of Shenshan, this is a challenge of streams. When the road encounters rivers, you can only licking the water. Think about it. If the ice water from the snow-capped mountains is soaked and the waist, how will it feel? 🚌 [Traffic Guide]: There is no shuttle bus to Mapanxuan, you can only charter your own car. Or take the shuttle bus to Pulan County, after the Hall Countryside car, take the taxi to Jiwu Temple in the township. 👉 [Itinerary]: In the small village at the foot of Wusi Mountain, there are two unnamed hotels operated by Tibetans, and the accommodation is 20 yuan per person. This small village is composed of 10 cottages, there is no restaurant, and the hotel in the south provides vegetarian white rice, 10 yuan per meal, to be booked. It is best to bring instant noodles or dry grain. There is fire and burning cow dung in the store, and you can cook by yourself. 🧡 [Warm reminder]: The accommodation conditions are very poor, it is best to bring your own dry grain and sleeping bag. Due to the shortage of vegetables along the way, you should carry a variety of vitamins. The snow of Xinzang Highway in winter and spring is closed in the mountains and is impassable. The best driving time is from early May to mid-October every year. The weather is bad and the accommodation conditions are poor. You should have enough cold-proof clothing and medicines (anti-diarrhea, anti-inflammatory, cure colds, etc.). Anyone who has altitude sickness in the Border Mountains will need to take oxygen tablets to relieve high anti-reflective symptoms. For example, hiking in Tibet, there are many horse roads, pilgrim trails and ferry crossings to choose from. These routes can be asked by locals or followed by pilgrims. The problem with the lake and the mountain is that you must pay attention to protecting the environment and prepare garbage bags at any time. The circumference of Shenghu Lake is about 60 kilometers, and it takes4-5 days to turn to the lake. Generally, it is clockwise. Two-thirds of the way (clockwise from Seralung Temple to Chiu Gonpa) is close to the lake shoreline, and the northern road passes through Holl Township. This road can run cars, alternate beaches, gravel and marsh, and several rivers in the southeastern part of the lake are injected into Mapan, and water is needed to cross the river. I have to bring food, there are temples to stay along the way, but the conditions are extremely simple. Although hiking along the lake is not as arduous as the up and down slopes of Shenshan, it is mostly a soft fine sand road and it is very laborious to walk. Especially difficult is to face the challenge of the stream on the south bank of the lake. When the road encounters rivers and streams, only the water can pass, there is no other way. The people who turn the lake are not as many as the pilgrims or travelers. The scenery along the way is beautiful, but there is no change, and the beautiful scenery will be boring for a few hours. If it is rainy season, several small rivers passing by will cause no small trouble.
