The first time I learned about Medog was in Baby Annie's "Lotus"📖. This is also the hometown of Zhang Qiling. As the last county in China with access to roads🛣️, it is mysterious, pure, and a pure land transformed into the human world, which has always attracted me deeply. . Passing through the Galongla Tunnel🚇, it feels like you have entered another world. The altitude dropped by more than 3,000 meters. After passing through heavy clouds and fog☁️, you finally arrived at the secret land of lotus🪷. Here you will find dense vegetation and endless water flow💦, spanning the cold zone, temperate zone, Subtropical plants 🌳 can meet in the same sky in spring, summer, autumn and winter.

Winter in Tibet is mainly about seeing blue glaciers and golden mountains in the sun. So how do you play? 🚗🚗🚗Itinerary options: ✈️✈️✈️DAY1: Fly to Lhasa from all over the country (book tickets for Potala Palace and Jokhang Temple) Why do we need airplanes? ❗❗❗Answer: The direct flight time is short, and you can go directly to the hotel to rest after arriving in Lhasa. After arriving in Lhasa, you can book a diffuse oxygen hotel, order some milk tea and watch some TV series, and go out after you have a good rest. Remember, don't worry, hotels in Tibet are not expensive during the off-season. 🔴DAY2: One-day tour in Lhasa city Attractions→Potala Palace at 10am, came out just in time for lunch at 12pm, took a taxi to Yaowang Mountain for 50 yuan, → took pictures of reflections in the square.

I drove about 560 kilometers along the Yarlung Zangbo River in Tibet. For the other 15 kilometers that belong to the paid scenic area, I could only take a sightseeing bus, which cost a total of 240 yuan, of which 90 yuan was the sightseeing bus fee. The paid Yarlung Zangbo River Scenic Area is located in Pai Town, Milin County, Nyingchi Prefecture, and requires a sightseeing bus to visit. The sightseeing bus has 4 stops along the way, which I think is the most disappointing attraction. I was too lazy to take out my camera at these four stops. But Suosong Village on the north bank of the river is very beautiful when the peach blossoms are in full bloom, although I couldn’t see the entire Namjagbarwa Peak due to the weather. This attraction is included in the scenic area, but not included in the sightseeing bus route. This set of photos were all taken in Suosong Village. I believe that on a sunny day, it will be much more beautiful than it is now, and the peach blossoms will also set off Mount Namjagbarwa. In any case, Suosong Village is a place not to be missed when visiting the Yarlung Zangbo River, but it does make me feel a little unbalanced that you have to pay for it. #ChinaTravel #Tibet #Nyingchi #Yarlung Zangbo River #Mountain #Nangabawa Peak #Peach Blossom #Natural Journey #Natural Beauty

Namchabarwa is the highest mountain in Nyingchi City, Tibet, peak at 7,782 meters, and has the title of Father of Tibetan Mountains. The body of Nanga Bawa is covered with snow all year round and the clouds are lingering. It never reveals its true face easily, so it is also called Shy Girl Mountain in Chinese. We were really lucky this time. In the evening, the mountain peaks were still clouded and misty. When the sun set at 8:07 pm in the evening, all the clouds and mist were dispersed. We even saw the magnificent sight of that the golden sun shines on the mountain. It is said that this mountain range is like a girl lying down, from right to left are her head, chest and feet. The best view point is in Suosong Village in the Yarlung Zangbo River Gorge. There is a milk tea shop in the village. We just drank milk tea and watched all the mountains exposed. It was so shocking! #summervacation

🌟 Namcha Barwa One-Day Tour Guide | A Fairy's Encounter with the "Shy Mountain," Budget-Friendly and Instagrammable!🌟 Morning: Peak Views and Gorge Exploration 7:30–9:00 am: Sunrise over the Snow Mountain at Suosong Village - Must-do: Suosong Village offers the "best seats" for viewing Namcha Barwa. Just open your guesthouse window and you're practically face-to-face with the snow-capped peak! Wear a white dress and take photos in the barley fields to instantly transform into a "snow mountain sprite." If the clouds are too thick to see the summit, don't worry! Namcha Barwa is a bit of a "social recluse," rarely revealing itself. Imagine the "Shy Mountain" hiding bashfully behind the clouds—it's quite endearing. - Humorous Tip: Don't shout "Come out!" at the viewing platform, or the Tibetan grandmas might mistake you for a "mountain summoner"! 9:30–11:30 am: Thrilling Yarlung Tsangpo Grand Canyon - Guide: Take the scenic shuttle bus deep into the canyon to witness the Yarlung Tsangpo River "slicing" through the Himalayas! Check out the "Love Firmer than Stone" boulder (two rocks sandwiching a peach tree, with a love story even more dramatic than a soap opera). - Hidden Gem: Look for the prayer flags by the river. If you wish for "riches," whisper it, or the mountain gods might think you're too greedy! Lunch: Tibetan Culinary Delights 12:00–1:30 pm: Nourishing Lulang Stone Pot Chicken - Must-try: Lulang Town's stone pot chicken is slow-cooked in a Medog soapstone pot with Rhodiola rosea and Tibetan chicken, resulting in a soup so delicious it'll make your "eyebrows dance"! A small pot for CNY 288 is enough for three people. Remember to ask the owner for "two more slices of matsutake"—this local bargaining trick works like a charm! - Funny Advice: Don't ask for the "mildly spicy" option. Tibetan "mild" might be your "tear-jerking catalyst"! Snack Surprise: Grab some Tricholoma matsutake dipped in chili from a street vendor. It's as crispy as a potato chip, and they say eating a lot can turn you into a "snow mountain runaway princess" (but be careful not to breathe fire from the spice)! Afternoon: Snow Mountain Photos and Hidden Adventures 2:00–4:00 pm: Golden Mountain Sunset Preview at Zhibai Village - Photography Paradise: Just 5 km from Namcha Barwa, Zhibai Village offers a breathtaking view of the peak, like a "spear piercing the sky"! Pose by the river in a red cape, with your social media caption ready: "Dancing with the snow mountain today. This fairy requests permanent residency in the celestial realm!" - Money-Saving Tip: The scenic shuttle bus ticket includes the Zhibai Village stop. Don't let chartered drivers trick you into paying extra! 4:30–5:30 pm: Cloud Dancing at Sejila Mountain Pass - Guide: Drive or carpool to the 4,728-meter-high pass, take a photo with the "Must-Drive Highway 318" sign, and enjoy a panoramic view of Namcha Barwa's nine peaks. Is the wind strong enough to blow off your wig? Perfect for a "windswept fairy" photoshoot! - Soul-Searching Question: Oxygen tanks at the pass are more expensive than milk tea? Take a deep breath and tell yourself, "Altitude sickness, be gone!" Evening: Starry Hot Pot and Affordable Accommodation 6:00–7:30 pm: Tibetan BBQ at the Foot of the Snow Mountain - Recommended Experience: Backyard BBQ at a Tibetan home in Suosong Village, featuring yak meat, Tibetan pork, and barley wine. All-you-can-eat for CNY 80 per person! The owner might even burst into a Tibetan song, creating a more lively atmosphere than karaoke. Accommodation Recommendations: Budget-Friendly and Instagrammable "Fairy Nests" 1. Jimei Guesthouse in Suosong Village: CNY 150 per person, with floor-to-ceiling windows facing the snow mountain. The owner is a photography enthusiast and will teach you how to take "pretend you're in Iceland" photos for free! 2. "Snow Mountain Post" Youth Hostel: A backpacker's haven at CNY 60 per person. Listen to fellow travelers' stories at night—more thrilling than "The Lost Tomb"! Travel Tips: Stay Safe and Instagrammable 1. Sun Protection Trio: Hat, sunglasses, and sunscreen (the UV rays are strong enough to fry an egg, beware of getting three shades darker!). 2. Outfit Guide: Bright-colored dress + thick coat (large temperature differences in the mountains, you might be a fairy in the morning and an "icicle" in the afternoon). 3. Transportation Tip: A chartered car from Nyingchi to Suosong Village is about CNY 200 per car, or CNY 50 per person for a carpool. The driver can also double as a "wild tour guide." 4. Mystical Bonus: People born in the Year of the Snake get free admission on their birthday. Check your Household Registration (Hukou)! One Last Thing: Sa Beining said, "Namcha Barwa is like a blind box of snow mountains." But this fairy thinks that opening this blind box will recharge your luck for the entire year! Let's go strike a pose with the snow mountain tomorrow! 🎒🏔️

Tibetan breakfast: - "Guangminggang Qiong Sweet Tea House": Sweet tea ¥5/pot, Tibetan noodles ¥8/bowl, crowded with locals, the taste is so authentic it'll make you question your life. 2. Stone pot chicken: - "Lulang Stone Pot Chicken🐓 Main Branch": ¥180/small pot, stewed with medicinal herbs and matsutake mushrooms, the soup is so delicious it's life-giving (drink three bowls and you win). 3. Yak beef hot pot: 🍲 - "Shengdi Ranmuqi Tibetan Restaurant": ¥120/person, generous portions of meat, eat it with spicy dipping sauce, and your soul will ascend. 4. Snack pitfalls: - Highland barley wine🍹: Tastes like a mix of fermented glutinous rice + beer, with a strong aftertaste, don't challenge it lightly. - Air-dried yak🦬: Buy a small package to try, otherwise, your jaw will ache. ⚠️ Foodie advice: - Tibetan food is greasy, bring some digestive medicine, don't be like me searching for yogurt in the middle of the night to cut the grease. - Sichuan restaurants are everywhere, but since you're here, at least try Tibetan food once! --- 🏔️ What to do: From "Peach Blossom Mania" to "Snow Mountain Collapse" 📸 Must-see attractions 1. Gala Peach Blossom Village (main venue of the Nyingchi Peach Blossom Festival): - Tickets ¥30, best time to visit is late March to early April, wear light-colored clothes for photos, otherwise, you'll "blend in" with the peach blossoms. 2. Yarlung Tsangpo Grand Canyon: - Tickets ¥150 (painful but worth it), seeing the peak of Nanga Bawa from the viewing platform is a matter of luck, if you see it, consider yourself winning the lottery. 3. Basum Tso: - Tibet's only 5A-level scenic spot, the lake is so blue it looks photoshopped, it is recommended to stay overnight, the lake surface has a mystical aura in the early morning (or it might just be fog). 4. Lulang Forest: - The "Switzerland of the East" lives up to its name, horseback riding ¥50/hour, pretend you're an elf from "Lord of the Rings." 🎒 Hidden gems: - Stargazing in Suosong Village: No light pollution, the Milky Way is visible to the naked eye, worth freezing your butt off for. - Visit a Gongbo Tibetan family: Drink butter tea, make butter, experience a day as a Tibetan herder (and then be grateful you don't have to herd yaks). --- 🚗 Money-saving tips for transportation - Lhasa → Nyingchi: Carpool ¥200/person, stops at Basum Tso and Mila Mountain Pass along the way, more flexible than a bus. - City attractions: Chartered car ¥600/day (more cost-effective for 4 people), the driver doubles as a tour guide and can help you bargain. --- 🤣 Final friendly reminders 1. The yaks in Nyingchi are calmer than cars. Please be patient when you encounter them on the road. Don't honk, or they might glare at you. 2. Hotel prices double during the Peach Blossom Festival, book in advance! Otherwise, you'll be sleeping in a tent (romantic but cold). 3. Posting on your WeChat Moments with the location "Tibet" will get you tons of likes, but remember to explain "Nyingchi really doesn't have altitude sickness!"

#Mainland Travel Mount Namjagbarwa is a famous tourist attraction in Tibet, China, and thousands of tourists come here for sightseeing every day. This time I will introduce a travel guide to Mount Nanga Bawa. There are many viewing points on Mount Nanga Bawa. It is really not necessary to visit them one by one. Here are the three places that are the best. 1️⃣ Yarlung Zangbo River Here you can see the complete Nanga Bawa Peak and its reflection, with a wide field of vision and no obstructions in front, so you can directly feel the majestic magnificence of Nanga Bawa Peak. 2️⃣Nangabawa Base Camp The snow-capped mountains here stretch out in a continuous line, and the Nanga Bawa Peak in the distance seems to be within reach. The peach blossoms and the snow-capped mountains complement each other, and the scenes are as beautiful as a painting. 3️⃣Suosong Village This is a great location to see Mount Namjagbarwa and peach blossoms.
