2025 Nagarze County Travel Guide: Must-see attractions, popular food, hotels, transportation routes (updated in June)

🌟 You can visit Lhasa, Tibet many times and never get tired of it. I recommend flying to Lhasa and renting a car for a self-drive tour. Be sure to rest after arriving in Lhasa before going out to play and adapt to the high-altitude life. 🌟 About accommodation, I stayed at the self-driving holy land Pingcuo Kangsan Hotel, a famous hotel in Lhasa with a good reputation. The hotel is beautifully landscaped, and the complimentary map is very useful. 🌟 On the first day, the Potala Palace is a must-see. Visit the Red Palace and the White Palace and admire the artistic treasures of Tibetan Buddhism. The tour guide said that gold is the least valuable treasure in the Potala Palace. Diamonds, gems, and rare treasures are all priceless. Then go to the nearby Norbulingka, a typical Tibetan-style garden known as the "Summer Palace" of Tibet. Exotic flowers and plants, red and white walls, yellow tiles, and golden roofs are simply beautiful. Then go to Yaowang Mountain, take out the back of the 50 yuan RMB, and take a photo with the RMB, which is the best place to take pictures of the Potala Palace. 🌟 On the second day, go to Barkhor Street to experience the life of Lhasa, taste Tibetan snacks, and buy Tibetan handicrafts. Then go to the Jokhang Temple next to it, which is a paradise for pilgrims. Many believers prostrate themselves, kowtow, and worship Buddha. We walked to the inner prayer path and followed the believers on the pilgrimage road. Then go to the Ramoche Temple to learn about the history of Tibetan Buddhism and admire the exquisite murals and Buddha statues. Finally, go to Sera Monastery, one of the largest temples in Lhasa, built in the early 17th century. There is a debate activity at 3 pm. Although you may not understand it, the atmosphere is very interesting and fun. 🌟 On the third day, drive to Pumoyongcuo for about three and a half hours, passing through Yamdrok Lake. Yamdrok Lake is one of the three holy lakes in Tibet. The lake is crystal clear, and the scenery is magnificent. Enjoy the natural scenery along the way. Drive to Pumoyongcuo, enjoy the beautiful scenery of the lake along the way, and experience the tranquility and mystery of the plateau lake. 🌟 On the fourth day, drive to Namtso for more than two hours. Namtso is one of the three holy lakes in Tibet, about 200 kilometers from Lhasa. The Holy Elephant Heaven Gate is permanently closed, waiting for it to be reopened in your lifetime. Namtso Lake is clear, surrounded by snow-capped mountains. You can also enjoy the magnificent starry sky at night. Prepare to go home at night and end the four-day trip. ⚠️ Notes: Lhasa is at a high altitude, so be careful to prevent altitude sickness. Drink Rhodiola ginger tea every day, and carry capsules and oxygen tanks with you. Photography is prohibited in Tibetan temples, so respect local cultural customs.

One of the highlights of this trip is to take pictures of the starry sky and the Milky Way. We settled in the camping base by the YamdrokTso Lake the previous night. The accommodation conditions are very simple. There are male dormitories and female dormitories. Each dormitory has 5-6 people, just like the dormitory in school. Because the altitude is a bit high, and I was worried about getting up to see the stars at night, I hardly slept all night. At 4 am in the morning, the team leader called up and took pictures of the starry sky. Once step out the dormitory door, you could see the white Milky Way and the stars by eyes. IPhones can also take some photos with straight shots. But it's still inferior to a professional camera, adjust the shutter to 25 seconds, make a good post, keep it still, Kata, the blockbuster is coming! It's like walking in the universe. In addition to the beautiful scenery of YamdrokTso Lake, the Milky Way and starry sky cannot be missed. Really recommended! #summervacation

#springitinerary Pumoyongcuo (also spelled Pumo Yumtso, 普莫雍错) is a stunning high-altitude lake located in the Tibet Autonomous Region of China.

#discoverchina Yamdrok Lake, also known as Yamdrok Yumtso, is one of the three sacred lakes in Tibet Autonomous Region of China (the other two being Namtso and Lake Manasarovar), and is praised as the "Heavenly Lake." It is a wonderful tourist destination. Located in Langkazi County of Shannan City, Tibet, it lies about 100 kilometers from Lhasa. With a surface elevation of approximately 4,441 meters and a total area of about 638 square kilometers, Yamdrok Lake is a great place in Tibet to experience and connect with the beauty of nature.

Yamdrok Yumtso, known as the "Swan Lake" in Tibetan, lies serenely amidst the northern foothills of the Himalayas. Situated at an altitude of 4,441 meters, the lake meanders like a sapphire ribbon embedded in the plateau. Its waters shift in hue with the play of light and shadow, appearing as a glassy fusion with the sky under clear conditions. The towering Ningjin Kangsha Peak is particularly striking, its snow-capped summit reflected in the lake's center, resembling a mirror connecting heaven and earth. The pastures around the lake change colors with the seasons—lush green carpets dotted with grazing cattle and sheep in summer, and pristine snow-covered landscapes in winter, exuding an air of sanctity. Legend has it that the lake is the dwelling place of a female guardian deity, and local Tibetans circumambulate the lake to offer prayers for blessings. When shrouded in mist, the lake and mountains appear ethereal, as if a celestial realm has descended to earth, showcasing both the grandeur of nature and the spiritual essence of faith.

Liquid turquoise magic spilled between snow-capped peaks 🏔️. At 4,441 meters above sea level, this Himalayan gem feels like standing on the world's roof, where the sky mirrors the lake and prayer flags snap in the wind like nature’s applause 🎏. Legend says a goddess’s tears formed it. My jaw dropped at the first glimpse from the Kamba La Pass viewpoint—the lake’s jagged shores curled like a sapphire dragon, villages dotting its edges like tiny pearls. Tips: 1. Rent a traditional Tibetan outfit for photos that pops against the landscape 👘. 2. Drive the lake loop (4-5 hours); every bend is a new “OMG” vista. 3. Pack oxygen if you’re altitude-shy; the views are worth the lightheadedness 😅. #discoverchina #tibet #china

This sacred body of water, one of Tibet’s three largest holy lakes, is a must-visit destination for travelers seeking both spiritual and natural beauty. The Journey to Yamdrok Lake The journey to Yamdrok Lake is an adventure in itself. Located approximately 100 kilometers from Lhasa, the lake is accessible via a scenic drive along the winding mountain roads of the Gampa La Pass. As you ascend, panoramic views of the vast plateau and distant Himalayan peaks unfold, setting the stage for the lake’s awe-inspiring beauty. At an altitude of over 4,400 meters, the thin mountain air adds a touch of exhilaration to the journey. A Jewel of Nature Upon arrival, the first sight of Yamdrok Lake is nothing short of mesmerizing. The waters shimmer in a spectrum of blues and greens, reflecting the sky above. The lake’s winding shoreline, dotted with small inlets and peninsulas, creates a dynamic contrast against the surrounding arid hills. Depending on the light and season, the lake shifts from a deep sapphire to an almost translucent emerald, an ever-changing masterpiece of nature. A Sacred Sanctuary For Tibetans, Yamdrok Lake is more than just a natural wonder—it is a sacred site believed to be a life-giving force. According to local legend, the lake is the transformed body of a goddess, and it is said that if Yamdrok were to dry up, Tibet would no longer be habitable. Pilgrims visit the lake to offer prayers and seek blessings, often performing ritual circumambulations along its shores. Exploring the Surroundings Beyond its tranquil waters, Yamdrok Lake’s surroundings offer plenty to explore. Traditional Tibetan villages dot the landscape, where locals welcome visitors with warm hospitality. One of the highlights is the Samding Monastery, perched on a hill overlooking the lake. This centuries-old monastery, home to a lineage of female reincarnate lamas, is a fascinating site that blends history, spirituality, and stunning vistas. For those seeking adventure, trekking and biking around the lake provide an immersive way to experience its grandeur. Wildlife enthusiasts may spot Tibetan antelopes, yaks, and a variety of migratory birds, adding to the lake’s ethereal charm. When to Visit The best time to visit Yamdrok Lake is between May and October when the weather is relatively mild, and the lake’s vibrant hues are at their most striking. Winter months can be harsh, with heavy snowfall limiting accessibility, but the sight of the frozen lake against the stark white mountains is equally enchanting. #china #tibet #yamdroklake #travel

I've been traveling for years and realized I'd never been to Tibet. This Lunar New Year, I finally visited Tibet in winter, and it turned out to be a hidden gem! 👍Advantages ⭕Lower travel expenses My flight from Chengdu to Lhasa cost a little over CNY 500, and the return flight from Lhasa to Shanghai was a little over CNY 1,300. Accommodation was just over CNY 100 per night, and the car rental fee was a little over CNY 200 per person per day. Most attractions are free, and the expressways are toll-free. Overall, the expenses were quite low. ⭕Fewer tourists Most people choose to stay home or travel nearby during Lunar New Year, so there were significantly fewer tourists. Apart from the Potala Palace and Jokhang Temple, the other attractions we visited weren't crowded. ⭕High visibility of snow-capped mountains Tibet has clear weather in winter, offering a much higher chance of seeing various snow-capped mountains than in other seasons. It's also an ideal time to visit glaciers. ⭕A great season for snow viewing For those from the south, the world of ice and snow has a natural appeal. In winter, Tibet offers easy access to such beautiful scenery. ⭕The weather is not that cold Contrary to popular belief, not all of Tibet is freezing cold in winter. Some places are even warmer than many southern cities. For example, the temperature in Lhasa and Nyingchi can reach over 10°C during Lunar New Year, with lows only dipping to a few degrees below zero. 👎🏻Disadvantages ⭕Altitude sickness may be more severe Due to various factors, altitude sickness is more likely to occur in winter, so winter travel to Tibet is not suitable for everyone. After arriving in Tibet, avoid strenuous exercise and be careful not to catch a cold. ⭕Relatively monotonous scenery Apart from snow-capped mountains, glaciers, lakes, and evergreen vegetation, the scenery is relatively bleak and certainly not as vibrant as in other seasons. ⭕Potential transportation inconvenience Extreme snowstorms may lead to road closures.
