Basum Tso in Tibet | A little Switzerland hidden in Tibet

"Basum Tso" also known as Cuogao Lake🌊, in Tibetan means "green water". The lake is at an altitude of 3480 meters, located 36 kilometers from Bahe Town, Gongbujiangda County, in the upper reaches of the Bahe River in the high mountain valley, it is a famous sacred lake and holy land of the Red Sect. In August 2017, it became the first natural scenic 5A tourist area in Tibet. 🎡 Attractions: 1⃣ Island in the heart of Basum Tso A small island in the middle of Basum Tso, connected to the land by a floating bridge. Tourists can walk up via this bridge or take a small boat. Legend has it that the island is a "hollow island", i.e., it is not connected to the lake bottom and floats on the lake. Although it is just a legend, it makes people feel the magic of nature. 2⃣ Cuozong Gongba Temple Located on the island in the lake, it is a famous Red Sect Nyingma temple in Tibet, built in the late Tang Dynasty, with a history of more than 1500 years. There is a peach and pine tree in the south of the temple. In spring, the peach blossoms and green pines contrast each other, which is very beautiful. 3⃣ Jieba Village At the foot of the scenic area of Basum Tso, there is an ancient village hidden -- Jieba Village, located deep in the scenic area in Cuogao Township. Only when you explore deep into the scenic area, you will find a paradise at the end of the lake. 4⃣ Xinco (very beautiful, worth a visit)✨ Xinco is an extended scenic spot inside Basum Tso, very beautiful, suitable for hiking, 6 kilometers, about 3 hours. Xinco is quite far from Basum Tso, about 20~30 kilometers, and the road conditions are poor. 🎈 Admission: 115 yuan/person, sightseeing car 50 yuan/person 🎈 Opening hours of the scenic area: 3.15-10.15, 8:30--20:30 10.16-next year 3.14, 9:30-19:30 🚘 Transportation: Self-driving or group tour You can also take a train from Lhasa to Nyingchi, and then take a bus from Nyingchi City Passenger Transport Center to Basum Tso, about 120 kilometers, ticket price 62 yuan, journey 2-2.5 hours 🏠 Food and accommodation: Basum Tso has developed into a relatively mature tourist resort in recent years, with convenient food and accommodation. The prices in the restaurants in the scenic area are relatively high, and the sanitary conditions are general 🌟 Best viewing season: Spring, Autumn. In spring, Basum Tso will present a charming blue, as if it were the blue tears of Nyenchen Tanglha. If you also like blue, why not go and see Basum Tso in spring! Every autumn, when the air is crisp and clear, the forest is dyed and the lake water is pure and clear.

Super real Songzanlin (Basongtso Store)

1, The hardware is impeccable, the room has a smart toilet, electric towel rack, projector, ambient night light (it's the most reasonable lighting design in the hotels I've stayed in recently), but the standard room bed is tiny! 1.2m X 1.8m, isn't it impossible for tall people to stretch their legs? 2, Some thoughtful little things, goodnight drink (in a thermos), prepared a variety of drinks coffee and so on that you can make yourself 3, The scenery is stunning, the swimming pool under the snow mountain, the restaurant with a 270-degree view, the dock where you can sail on the lake, and the horse farm and so on, the soon-to-open Ancestor Bird, it's only a matter of time before it becomes a stop on the journey rather than a night at a hotel 4, Food, dinner is not bad, ordered mushroom stewed rice and vegetables and so on, apart from being expensive there is no problem, breakfast is very rich and delicious, afternoon tea is a bit perfunctory, probably considering that not many guests eat it 5, Service, the biggest complaint this time, the night before they said it was quite good, we checked in very late and didn't get afternoon tea, the room can be delayed until 2 o'clock to check out, if we leave early they can help us pack, breakfast until 10 o'clock and so on, the next morning, they first called to urge us to check out at 11 o'clock, because there are new guests booked? We disagreed, then said that afternoon tea can't be packed, only dine in, and said that breakfast is only until 9 o'clock, our communication process also said that we are very difficult to communicate, can't understand a bit. Above, can experience, encounter a good manager may have a better experience.

I have a preference for the spring in Linzhi

There are two truly beautiful Shangri-Las in the world; one is in the heart, and the other is in Tibet. March in Linzhi belongs exclusively to the romantic fairy tale of Tibet, of course, it must be paired with the blooming peach blossoms of the Z fairy. SOON every year from March 15th to April 15th, the entire Linzhi is immersed in the splendid sea of peach blossoms. The peach blossoms under Mount Namjagbarwa are about to bloom. Gala Village and Kasimu Village are the best viewing spots, where you can see the idyllic scenery complemented by peach blossoms, snow-capped mountains, and lakes! The scenic area ticket is 150, valid for 3 days. To enter the scenic area, you need to take a shuttle bus, with two routes, each charging 90 for a round trip: one goes to the Grand Canyon Hot Springs, stopping at Dadu Card ruins, Love Tree, and Namjagbarwa Peak viewing platform along the way. The other goes to Suosong Village. From Suosong Village, you can get a fuller view of Mount Namjagbarwa, which is even more beautiful with the peach blossoms. Self-driving itinerary reference Day1 Fly to Lhasa from various places Day2 Lhasa to Lulang about 460km Day3 Lulang to Bomi about 200km Day4 Bomi to Paitown about 280km Day5 Paitown to Basong Lake about 200km Day6 Basong Lake to Lhasa about 350km Day7 Lhasa day tour

Yarlung Zangbo, you are in the middle of autumn. With a total length of 504.6 kilometers and an average depth of 2268 meters, the Yarlung Zangbo Grand Canyon is the world's largest canyon. It is known as the "last human myth" and is regarded by scientists as "the keyhole that opens the door to the history of the earth." In the Tibetan language, Yaru refers to the sky from the sky. The autumn colors of Yaluzang are very charming. Every year in late October, the golden and dark green leaves are intertwined, like a painting that attracts many photographers. Today's weather is not ideal. After an afternoon, although I can't see the whole picture of Mount Kinabalu, I can still see the main peak of Mount Nanga Bawa. Waiting, just because it is worth it.

The Yarlung Zangbo Grand Canyon, the deepest canyon in the world, is called the last secret on the earth. It has both the harsh and cold of the Himalayas and the warmth of the Amazon River. When you visit the Grand Canyon with the scenic car, you will arrive first. In the Love Square, you can see that the distant Nanjia Bawa Peak is like a shy girl who is finally unveiled, and the huge triangular peaks are clearly visible. The height of 7782 meters in Nanga Bawa is also proud of the world. Geographers like to analyze the peculiarity of Nanga Bawa from a scientific point of view. The Tibetans think it is a holy place and call it "the mountain." "As a general tourist, I just sigh for the beauty of its masculine beauty. The peaks of the triangle are vigorous and powerful, and the king is demeanor." The Yarlung Zangbo Grand Canyon is the formation of the Himalayas movement and the rushing of the river. After passing through two high valleys at an altitude of over 6,000 meters, it forms a peculiar U-shaped turn around the Nanga Bawa Peak, and the American branch. The Grand Canyon is exactly the same, but it is longer and deeper. [Tips] Transportation and tickets: The scenic spot is very large and there is no public transportation. So if you want to visit the Yarlung Zangbo Grand Canyon, you can only participate in the tour or chartered car. You can usually travel in Lhasa or Linzhi. The group, the group price generally includes tickets. Diet: There are restaurants in the scenic spot, most of them are opened by Sichuanese. The taste is not bad Note: Although the altitude is not too high, about 2880 meters, but after all, it is a plateau area, pay attention to high anti.

Bomigala Peach Blossom Village: This place is a famous peach blossom spot in Nyingchi~ Surrounded by mountains on three sides, the peach blossoms look incomparably beautiful against the backdrop of snow-capped mountains🏔️ and forests. Mid-March to mid-April is the peach blossom season in Nyingchi, so those who love peach blossoms under the snow mountains should remember to plan their time well! Sejila Mountain Pass: The scenery along the way is really too stunning, with the snow-capped mountains and the heavy snowfall, it's breathtaking!

It's an unforgettable experience in this lifetime Guoxiang Lake: This place really surprised me, it's a relatively lesser-known lake, but the water is clear and green, with several tall trees standing erect in the middle of the lake.

Tibet | Winter travel offers great value for money, and this is the real Tibet

🚗Some say, 'Tibet in July and August belongs to tourists, but only in winter can you see the real Tibet.' I didn't believe it until this winter when I came to Tibet. Indeed, there are many sceneries in winter that you can't see in summer, and I now believe the statement at the beginning. Since winter travel to Tibet is such a great value, what exactly can you see in Tibet during winter? 1. The Potala Palace is a destination many people aim for when visiting Lhasa. In winter, there's no need to queue, and admission is free (200y), with reservations available the day before. Plus, you can take both the east and west routes, which is perfect for those who want to delve deeper into Tibetan culture. 2. Watching migratory birds in Lhasa has become a new highlight of Lhasa tourism in winter. If you're lucky, you can also see the black-necked crane. In Longwangtan Park, at the foot of the Potala Palace, the figures of migratory birds can be seen everywhere. 3. The air in Tibet is clean in winter, and places like Namtso and Yamdrok Lake are excellent spots for stargazing. 4. Snow-capped mountains can be seen everywhere in the Tibetan region in winter, but it doesn't feel cold when the sun is out during the day. 5. Mount Namjagbarwa in Nyingchi, known as the 'Shy Girl Peak,' is often shrouded in clouds and mist. But in winter in Tibet, there's a high chance of seeing the golden sunlight on Mount Namjagbarwa. 6. Appreciating blue ice is an essential part of 'winter travel in Tibet.' In winter, Puma Yumco, Ranwu Lake, Namtso, Yamdrok Lake, and Basum Lake offer unique scenery. The lakes freeze over, and the sunlight reflects off the bottom of the lake, creating blue ice and emerald ice, like something out of a fairy tale. 7. If you like the outdoors, you don't need to go to Alaska or Iceland to experience magnificent glaciers. The Renlongba Glacier, Laigu Glacier, Midui Glacier, and Qudenima Glacier are well worth a visit. 8. Tibet is rich in geothermal resources, with hot springs like Yangbajing, Dezhong, Riduo, Woka, and Quzika, making winter hot springs in the snow land something to look forward to. 9. If you happen to catch the Tibetan New Year, various folk festivals and cultural activities centered on the 'Tibetan New Year,' such as the Butter Lamp Festival, Fairy Festival, and Lantern Festival, are colorful and exciting. Especially this year, as the Lunar New Year and the Tibetan New Year joyfully 'meet,' visitors to Tibet can experience the New Year on the snow-covered plateau, feel the bustling atmosphere of the Tibetan people preparing for the New Year at the Lhasa Chongsaikang market, and experience Tibetan New Year customs at homestays like Deji Tibetan Home. 🚗Precautions 1. The oxygen is relatively thin in winter, so pay more attention to altitude sickness, and don't drink alcohol after arriving! 2. In winter, there are fewer people in the small cities of the Tibetan region, so if you're not familiar with the road conditions, it's best to travel with a group. 3. The outdoor attractions depend on the weather, so keep a calm attitude, as long as you are safe, that's good. 4. There's a big temperature difference, so pay attention to keeping warm and preventing cold.

🏆Route section: The first day: Depart from Lhasa → Niyang River Wetland Fairyland → Magnificent spectacle of Namjagbarwa Peak → Arrive at Suosong Village (For friends who suffer from altitude sickness on higher altitude sections, please prepare glucose or corresponding medicines in advance.

Pay attention to keeping warm in winter and avoid bathing to prevent catching a cold! Thermometer💪Glacier medicine box) The second day: Explore the Yarlung Zangbo Grand Canyon → Check in at the Buddha Palm Sand Dune (The backstory is very interesting, a good place for taking photos, the scenery is relatively ordinary but still a sight to see) → Leisurely travel to Bomi The third day: Depart from Bomi → Ranwu Lake like a poetic painting → Visit the mysterious and spectacular Laigu Glacier (Getting up early is wise, as the wind gets stronger and colder after noon, you can choose to ride a horse or hike for the adventure, Laigu Glacier is definitely a visual feast! Snowy mountains and glaciers🐎) The fourth day: Depart from Bomi again → Pass by the tranquil hometown lake → Challenge the 4700 meters high Sejila Mountain (Occasionally encounter cute monkeys on the mountain top, remember to bring some snacks to feed them; if you encounter a snowy landscape, it is an excellent opportunity for photography, and with great luck, you may even have a distant view of Namjagbarwa Peak! Snowy mountains monkey group snowflakes❄️) The fifth day: Depart from Linzhi → Enjoy a trip to Basong Lake (Regrettably did not reach the new lake, which is hidden deep in Basong Lake, requiring another hour's drive, the ticket is free, only a 10 yuan sanitation fee is charged, you can walk or ride a motorcycle, immerse yourself in the fresh air and lush greenery, forest oxygen bar🌿) 🌡️Temperature tip: The temperature in February is still acceptable, except for the Laigu Glacier which is colder, other places are fine to cope with. 🌸March Peach Blossom Festival reminder: Friends who go to Linzhi to enjoy the Peach Blossom Festival in March, please note that the cost may be slightly higher, the leader revealed that accommodation is extremely tight, be sure to book hotels in advance. On 3.26, the Holy Elephant Gate will open, each season has its beauty, and the scenery along the way is also a captivating painting! 🚗Travel method suggestion: If you have companions and sufficient time, it is recommended to charter a car or self-drive to enjoy the scenery along the way at your own pace, stopping wherever you like. About altitude sickness: Although I do not suffer from altitude sickness, for companions who do, it is a good choice to prepare glucose and adapt in Lhasa for two days. For minor discomfort, there is no need to rush to oxygen, consider oxygen only if really uncomfortable, and you can go to the hospital to get related medicines. Do not bathe, drink alcohol, or go clubbing upon first arriving in Lhasa, maintain sufficient good sleep, which helps to better adapt to the altitude sickness environment. 💕Solo travelers need not worry, you will surely encounter many like-minded new friends on the journey. Wishing every traveler a pleasant and unforgettable trip to Tibet! Encounter beauty🌈

National Day holiday, recommending 9 off-the-beaten-path scenic spots in China

Hello, we are Xiao Yan and Lao Zhao, always on the road, the unknown scenery ahead can always heal everything. Here are 9 off-the-beaten-path scenic spots in China that we have visited and think are very worthwhile: 1⃣️Lulang Town, Tibet Autumn is its most beautiful season, with large pine forests and distant snow-capped mountains complementing each other, plus the log cabins are like a fairy tale world, and you can also overlook the 28th highest peak in the world, Namjagbarwa. 2⃣️Shangri-La Baishuitai You can see the Cotton Castle without going to Turkey, this is a calcified landscape that has naturally formed over thousands of years, like silky cream terraces. 3⃣️Guizhou Yubulu Tiankeng Although it is a man-made device, it is hidden in a thousand-year-old village, the photo feels very magical, and it's free and very worth seeing in person. 4⃣️Lijiang Wenhai A lesser-known scenic spot in Lijiang that we really like, you can overlook the Jade Dragon Snow Mountain, with herds of cattle and sheep on the large grassland by the lake, it feels like Ili. 5⃣️Xinjiang Tianshan Stone Forest A very magical landscape, like the wilderness in the real version of The Legend of Zelda. The entrance is right next to the Duku Highway, so it's only convenient to go there in the few months when Duku is open, which is now. 6⃣️Lijiang Ganheba You need to start hiking from Yuhu Village in Lijiang, in the direction of Jade Dragon Snow Mountain, there are tenacious trees in the calcified saline-alkali land, which can't help but marvel at the magic of nature. 7⃣️Qiandongnan Jiayi Miao Village A still quite off-the-beaten-path village, with few people and pristine scenery, there are large terraced fields, just like Miyazaki's anime. 8⃣️Inner Mongolia Wulan Lake A salt lake hidden in the Alxa Desert, very magical like the heart of the earth. The color will be redder and more beautiful from July to October every year. 9⃣️Shangri-La Tiger Leaping Gorge High Road Hiking A hiking route recommended by National Geographic, walking along the rolling Jinsha River on the cliffs, accompanied by goats, the scenery is very shocking. Take advantage of the holiday, let's go!

Rulong, a small town in eastern Switzerland | Like a fairyland on earth

| Like a fairyland on earth. The town of Rulong is an international tourist destination. It's a small place, but it's very clean and tidy everywhere. The architectural style of the houses is lazy in Tibetan, but the interior decoration is still very traditional Han. The original traditional Tibetan houses have been improved a lot, but you can still see the characteristics of Tibetans. Although the peach blossom festival in Nyingchi has passed, there are still many peach blossoms blooming, but these two days have been covered by heavy snow on the branches, the heavy snow swaying on the flowers, the top is white snow, the bottom is pink flowers, you can imagine a bunch of beautiful scenery. The sound of snow shoes stepping on the snow, it's been a long time since I played like this. I still miss the taste of butter tea, full of sheep milk flavor, thin, floating a layer of butter : √Rulong Forest Sea: The young forest is green and the mother forest is secluded. The towering snow of Namjagbarwa and the forest sea reflect each other, which makes the plateau of Tibet more magnificent √Zaxigang Folk Village: The thick Tibetan-style houses and the buildings that blend the characteristics of Tibetans, Han, and Menba are scattered among the high mountain pastoral fields, quiet and peaceful √Gongtso Lake: The lake in the scenic area is clear and rippling, the mountains and rivers are continuous, as if in a paradise, you can also overlook the Namjagbarwa Peak, it is also a good place for photography √Specialty food: When you come to Rulong, you must have a pot of stone chicken. It is made by hollowing out a whole stone. The local Tibetan chicken is used, and the stream water from the snow mountain is used with ginseng, Tibetan beimu, lily, wolfberry and other medicinal materials. Slow stew, stew out the delicious food : High-end: Poly Yatu (open the door and walk out of the yard is the artificial lake); Evergrande Hotel (Tibetan manor style, the hotel provides Tibetan clothes) Homestay: You can live in Zaxigang Village (secretly live in Zaxigang Village to enter the high mountain pasture without tickets) ': D1: Lhasa--Basongtso--Sejila Mountain--Nyingchi--Rulong D2: Rulong--Tongmai--Through the primeval forest--Guxiang Lake--Ranwu Lake--Laigu Glacier--Bomi D3: Bomi--Yarlung Zangbo River Grand Canyon--Suosong Village D4: Suosong Village--Kadinggou--Lhasa

Lulang Attractions ▪️Lulang International Town Lulang Town is surrounded by mountains and forests, and the pastoral scenery can be seen everywhere. It really is a town that can rival Switzerland. ▪️Lulang Forest Sea The dense forest is like a green ocean.

Complete Travel Guide to the Peach Blossom Festival in Nyingchi, Tibet! It was so impressive!

I recently went on a 6-day tour to Tibet! The main purpose was to see the peach blossoms in Nyingchi! But I went a bit early, and the peach blossoms were not in full bloom yet, though they were still beautiful! I've organized this guide for you! You can boldly and confidently go for it! Nyingchi: After arriving in Nyingchi, you can take some time to acclimate to the high-altitude climate. Rest flat in the hotel. Friends with good physical condition can also go to the center of Nyingchi city for a walk after landing! Bomigala Peach Blossom Village: This place is a famous peach blossom spot in Nyingchi~ Surrounded by mountains on three sides, the peach blossoms look incomparably beautiful against the backdrop of snow-capped mountains🏔️ and forests. Mid-March to mid-April is the peach blossom season in Nyingchi, so those who love peach blossoms under the snow mountains should remember to plan their time well! Sejila Mountain Pass: The scenery along the way is really too stunning, with the snow-capped mountains and the heavy snowfall, it's breathtaking! After reaching the Sejila Mountain Pass, you can look far into one of China's most beautiful peaks→Namcha Barwa! I'm really lucky! To be able to witness the beauty of the peak! It's an unforgettable experience in this lifetime Guoxiang Lake: This place really surprised me, it's a relatively lesser-known lake, but the water is clear and green, with several tall trees standing erect in the middle of the lake. Surrounded by the green water and snow-capped mountains🏔️, it gives the beautiful illusion of being transported to New Zealand~ Bomi Peach Blossom Valley: Because we came early, the peach blossoms were not fully in bloom, but it had its own unique charm! This is where Peach Blossom Valley is, friends who like peach blossoms can wait for the weather to warm up a bit more before coming! Basong Lake: You can take a leisurely stroll, look at the lake, see the snow mountains, or choose to take a boat to enjoy the feeling of being surrounded by snow mountains~ This place is known as the 'Little Switzerland' of Tibet~ Lhasa: The last stop is Lhasa!! Since I've fully adapted to the high-altitude environment, there were no altitude sickness issues during the entire trip, and I ate and slept well~ In Lhasa, you can go for a city walk. These are some places you can choose to visit! →Barkhor Street: A place for prayer and a commercial center →Yaowang Mountain Viewing Platform: Remember to bring 50 RMB →Potala Palace, Jokhang Temple: No need to say much about these two places!!! →Sera Monastery, Zaki Temple I was on a group tour for the entire trip, and it was a pure play team, plus all the teammates were young people, so we had a great time together! The key is that I met many like-minded friends!!! Tibet! I will come again!
