June in Nyingchi, Tibet: Encounter the Last Spring Colors Beneath the Snowy Mountains

🌿 In June, the snow on Namcha Barwa hasn't fully melted, while wild rhododendrons bloom vibrantly along the Nyang River banks, creating a more magnificent scene than March's peach blossom season. ✨ Classic Itinerary: - Basum Tso Lake Loop: A 1-hour drive around the lake reveals June's wildflowers covering the slopes. The ancient Tashi Island temple at the lake's center appears even more sacred with snowy mountain reflections. - Suosong Village's Namcha Barwa View: Stay in a local homestay (¥300/night). June mornings often offer "Golden Mountain Sunrise" moments when clouds part, revealing the world's 15th highest peak piercing the sky. - Lulang Forest Sea Hike: Take the "Zhaxigang Village-Sekila Mountain" route. June's emerald forests occasionally reveal herders' tents—pause for sweet tea before continuing. 🍲 Tibetan Cuisine: Must-try stone pot chicken (Lulang specialty with Tibetan chicken and Codonopsis), butter tsampa. Visit "Lulang Stone Pot Chicken Flagship Store" for nourishing meals (~¥150/person). 🚗 Transport: 4-hour drive from Lhasa to Nyingchi. Basum Tso ticket ¥120; Suosong Village requires Grand Canyon ticket (¥150). 💡 Tips: Nyingchi's 3,000m+ elevation in June—carry oxygen. Namcha Barwa hides in clouds 70% of time; stay 2 nights for better viewing odds.
