There are too many snow mountains in Tibet, but most of them are far away from the viewing platform, and photos 📷 also need to be taken with a telephoto lens. But I found a place very, very close to the 8,000-meter snow mountain. It should be the closest place for ordinary tourists to see the 8,000-meter snow mountain. 📍Dingri County Pushila Mountain Pass This is the only way to Rongxia Township, and it is also the best viewing platform to admire Cho Oyu. It takes about 2 hours to drive from Gangga Town, and the road conditions are very good throughout the journey. 【What snow mountains can you see here🏔️】 🛻8201 meters, the world's sixth peak, Cho Oyu 🛻7952 meters, Gezhongkang Peak 🛻6666 meters, Qiaolazang Peak ✅On the way to Pushila Mountain Pass, you can admire an 8,000-meter snow mountain, Cho Oyu, and several 6,000-meter and 7,000-meter snow mountains ✅In addition to Cho Oyu, the most eye-catching is the 6666-meter Qiaolazang Snow Mountain (Figure 5). This number is too lucky for Chinese people. ✅The only way from Gangga Town to Rongxia Gully, about 20km out of Gangga Town, you can see the perspective of P2-P3, which is very suitable for taking road photos. It is recommended to use telephoto shooting ✅The accommodation conditions in Rongxia Township and Gangga Town are not good, please consider whether to stay Travel tips ‼️ ⚠️ Be sure to bring your ID card and border pass ⚠️ It's very cold under the snow mountain, you must bring a down jacket ⚠️ When you see a place close to the snow mountain, stop the car, then climb a small hill, basically it is the best position Note❗️ Sisters, if you want to take more pictures, you can continue to walk towards the snow mountain for a while, about 1 hour is enough.

Tibet, this mysterious and magnificent land, boasts enchanting scenery. Careful planning before embarking on the journey is crucial to avoid wasting precious time. Budget and Preparation It is recommended to reasonably arrange your budget according to your situation. Do not be too frugal, as traveling in Tibet can be relatively expensive. If you choose to fly, immediately go to a clinic or hospital for oxygen and medication if you experience altitude sickness. Do not hope to recover by just sleeping; early treatment ensures a pleasant subsequent journey. Ways to Enter Tibet If you have ample time, a train sleeper is a good choice. Avoid hard seats to ensure good rest and reduce the risk of altitude sickness. After arriving in Lhasa, rest at the hotel first. Avoid excessive exercise, walking, washing your hair, bathing, and drinking alcohol to prevent altitude sickness. Food Experience Tibet's sweet tea is sweet and delicious, while butter tea has a salty flavor. Some friends may not be accustomed to the taste of butter tea, so try it cautiously. Itinerary - Day 1: Arrive in Lhasa, check into the hotel, and adapt to the plateau environment. - Day 2: Lhasa - Mila Mountain Pass - Basum Lake. Basum Lake's green waters are surrounded by snow-capped mountains, offering stunning scenery. Stay overnight at a hotel in Nyingchi. - Day 3: Nyingchi - Yarlung Tsangpo Grand Canyon - Mount Namjagbarwa. Experience the wonders of nature at the Yarlung Tsangpo Grand Canyon, and if lucky, see the true face of Mount Namjagbarwa. Stay overnight at a hotel in Nyingchi. - Day 4: Nyingchi - Lulang Forest - Bomi. The dense forests and vast meadows of Lulang Forest are refreshing, and Bomi offers a tranquil small-town atmosphere. - Day 5: Bomi - Ranwu Lake - Laigu Glacier - Nyingchi. The blue waters of Ranwu Lake and the majestic Laigu Glacier are mesmerizing. - Day 6: Nyingchi - Kading Valley - Nyang River Scenic Belt - Lhasa. The waterfall in Kading Valley cascades down, and the Nyang River Scenic Belt is picturesque. - Day 7: Lhasa - Yamdrok Lake - Karola Glacier - Shigatse. Yamdrok Lake is like a fairyland, and the Karola Glacier is grand and magnificent. - Day 8: Shigatse - Tashilhunpo Monastery - Lhasa.

6⃣ June in Tibet, I would call it the best time to travel🎈! Not to mention the fewer people and beautiful scenery, it coincides with Tibet's rainy season, the air is more humid, and the oxygen content is at its highest throughout the year🫁, making it less likely to suffer from altitude sickness. During the day, temperatures usually range between 20 - 25 degrees Celsius, and at night, they are around 10 - 15 degrees, neither cold nor hot, making it an especially good season for visiting👏. First, you need to choose a mode of transportation that suits you, based on your financial situation and time availability. Taking a plane✈ takes less time, while a train🚞 allows you to enjoy the beautiful scenery along the way, but it requires more time. June in Tibet is also during the traditional festival 'Saga Dawa Festival', which is one of the grander ethnic traditional festivals in Tibet. Various ceremonies and traditional dance performances are held during this period, and the festival usually lasts for a month🔥 🌟Attraction Recommendations 📍Potala Palace: Standing on the Red Hill, it is the highest palace in the world👍. 📍Jokhang Temple: The first Buddhist temple in Tibet, built by Tibetan King Songtsen Gampo. Every day, a large number of devout followers come to Jokhang Temple to prostrate and worship🙏. 📍Everest Base Camp: Located at an altitude of 5200 meters, it is one of the best places to view the world's 1⃣ highest peak - Mount Everest🏔. 📍Namtso: Known as 'Heavenly Lake', it is surrounded by beautiful scenery, with the Nyenchen Tanglha Mountains stretching in the distance🌄. 📍Yamdrok Lake: Considered by locals to be 'turquoise earrings scattered by a goddess'. The lake water changes into a myriad of blue hues with the sunlight, which is breathtaking💙. 📍Sacred Mountain and Holy Lake Scenic Area: Mount Kailash and Lake Manasarovar in western Tibet's Ngari are the most popular tourist attractions, and June is also the best time to visit. Lake Manasarovar, one of the most beautiful high-altitude lakes in Tibet, is located at an altitude of 4718 meters within the Gangdise mountain range and is known as one of the 'three great holy lakes' of Tibet; while Mount Kailash is one of the most sacred Buddhist mountains in Tibet and a famous pilgrimage site🙏. ‼Precautions ⚠Ensure you get plenty of sleep the day before departure, do not catch a cold, and if you have a cold, it is not recommended to come to Tibet😷 ⚠Do not bathe or wash your hair for the first two days after arrival, as the climate in Tibet has a large temperature difference between morning and evening, and bathing can cause rapid evaporation of water, which can lead to a cold due to the quick loss of body heat❄ ⚠The distances between various scenic spots in Tibet are long, so it's a good idea to carry some small snacks like chocolate, cola, beef jerky, etc., to replenish your energy🍫 ⚠The outdoor UV rays are strong, and the sunlight is dazzling during the day, so it's best to bring sunscreen, a sun hat, and sunglasses🕶 to protect your skin and eyes. ⚠It is advisable to find a local tour group or leader in advance for a more worry-free experience🤗 ⚠People with severe hypertension, heart disease, respiratory diseases, and other conditions not recommended by doctors should not travel to Tibet💊 Are you ready for a trip to Tibet😃

I finally came to see Mt. Everest When our car passed the pass, I was still taking pictures of the scenery along the way with my phone. Mount Everest suddenly appeared before our eyes. The moment I saw it, I cried again This is the place I most desire. It’s so beautiful that my eyes can’t even hold it in my camera! Fortunately, the weather has been good these days. Every morning is clear blue sky and snow-capped mountains Clouds will gradually appear in the afternoon The snow-capped mountains that have been lingering for thousands of years seem to have been sleeping And I also have the illusion that I can touch it with my hand Have to brag about yourself One step closer to my dream In fact, as long as you set out Wherever you want to go, you will get there one day. 👇Everest Base Camp Guide 👇 🎫Tickets: 160/person. You can only drive to the Basong Village below. To get to the base camp, you need to take an environmentally friendly shuttle bus for 120/person. It takes about 40 minutes to get from the village to the base camp. Now is the off-season, and the last shuttle bus is at 19:30 If you want to take pictures of the sunrise at Jinshan Mountain, please check the time in advance. 🏠Accommodation: I stayed in Basong Village. The accommodation above the base camp was not very good, and there was a smell of beef. The altitude was high, the temperature was low, and it was relatively expensive. The environment in the village below was better and it was more convenient to take a car. ⚠Notes⚠ 🧡Basong Village is 4300 meters above sea level, and the base camp is 5200 meters above sea level. Because I came to Tibet 4 or 5 days in advance, I adapted well to the plateau, so I didn't need oxygen. If you haven't adapted to the high altitude, it is recommended to prepare oxygen in advance (small bottles That’s useless.) 🧡Border pass: You need a border pass to go to the Everest Base Camp. There are two ways to get one: 1. I applied for one in Shigatse, which is more convenient. You only need to bring your ID card. 2. You can also apply for one in Lhasa, but you need to open it in advance. Good criminal record certificate; 3⃣ In theory, the place of residence can also be used, but the area range cannot be written so detailed, so it may not be used and needs to be re-applied 🧡It's very windy and cold here, please wear more clothes. In addition, you can bring hot water. It's really cold.

pretty windy up here!!! from Shigatste, the second largest city in Tibet, I spent a day driving off road to finally get to the base of the Everest, on Mount Qomolangma…and from here to the base camp at 5200 meters above the sea level. This is the North side of Mount Everest, that belong to China. Quite a few yaks around, seems they enjoy the peace of this magical place! #2023travelwish #lucaworldtraveler

The title really says it all but just wow! The view was incredible, the excitement was overwhelming. We stopped at Gyawu La Pass on our drive to Mount Everest Base Camp and we’re in awe of the beautiful sight. This was a quick stop we took before transferring to an eco friendly bus that took us the rest of the way to the base of Mount Everest. It really was a bucket list and life changing trip. I can’t recommend it enough…if you are able to travel to Tibet, go! 🥰 If you live in China, you can travel to Tibet with a tour group. We went with JoyTravel and they were wonderful. :) #travellater #campingglamping #summervacation #wintergetaway #bucketlist #everestbasecamp #explore #exploresgtogether #travel #travelinspiration #adventure #tibet

To get there, one must enlist the service of a tour company. They will take care first and foremost your permit to travel. One is recommended to acclimatize days before doing the actual trip around Tibet and heading to see the highest mountain in the world. We stayed at various 4-Star hotels in prior to heading to the base camp where we stayed at local tents with good heating system. The tent owner will take care of you including bedding and food. What an amazing experience! #qomolangma #everestbasecamp #tibet

The biggest challenge of traveling to Tibet is altitude sickness. Today I came to the highest altitude place of this trip, MT.Qomolangma Base Camp, which is 5200 meters above sea level. I really felt the thinness of oxygen and I wanted to sleep all the time. The weather today is really good, you can see the panoramic view of MT.Qomolangma, and there is also a sign of 318 Dingri Station, which is a must-drive route in life, to take pictures. I have heard that many people challenge themselves to climb Mount Everest, but starting from January 2019, Chinese government has banned any unit or individual from climbing Mount Qomolangma. The view from a distance is already very shocking! #summervacation

📍Tibet, China Altitude sickness at 5200m 🗻😢🤢 It was fine outside, but I started to have headaches and purple lips in the tent😣 The world's highest peak, Mount Everest, also known as Mount Everest🗻, is 8,848m above sea level (I finally saw it!) Many friends thought I was going to climb Mount Everest, how could I have the courage😳 And I only stayed in the base camp at an altitude of 5,200m for one night, and I felt uncomfortable for a whole night😢 There is only 23% of the atmosphere at an altitude of 5,000-10,000m. The higher the altitude, the thinner the air and the lower the oxygen content. Fortunately, I only had a slight altitude sickness, and I didn't have any breathing difficulties. 🙏🏻 I have been to many high mountains, but only on Mount Everest did I have obvious altitude sickness. The wind was so strong that it was indescribable! I felt very uncomfortable, but I insisted on not taking any medicine, drinking glucose and keeping a positive attitude, and then I was fine. It was an unforgettable experience! Unforgettable‼ ️‼ ️ #roadtrip #backpacker #solotravelle #besttravelexperience #travelinspiration #naturalwonders #self-drivingtour

Everest Base Camp has a temperature of -10° at 1 am and a car ride from Shigatse for 8 hours. After three hundred twists and turns in three border checkpoints, it finally reaches Everest Base Camp. At first, the fog of the mountains and the peaks of Mount Everest cannot be reached. I noticed that until 22 o'clock, the fog dissipated, and I heard someone shouting that the sky was so beautiful. Then I wore a down jacket and a jacket with a tripod and a SLR to go out to shoot the stars. The starry sky of Everest is definitely one of the most beautiful stars I have ever seen. Shooting near zero, the dark night was illuminated by a flash of lightning, Everest was completely illuminated, and the majestic Mount Everest appeared in front of me for the first time. Thanks to the more frequent lightning, I was able to record differently. Everest.

When the wheels roll over the frozen soil at an altitude of 5,000 meters, the sacred chants of Mount Kailash drift through the wind. This land, closest to heaven, brews a healing elixir for every weary soul with its snow-capped mountains, holy lakes, and millennia-old relics. 🌄 In the folds of Mount Everest, comprehend the insignificance and eternity As the Gyawu La Pass unveils the scroll of five 8,000-meter peaks, those insurmountable obstacles suddenly transform into barely visible lines in the palm of your hand. When the golden-red hues of sunrise bathe the prayer flags, you will understand: all human anxieties pale in comparison to a single snowflake falling into the eternal silence. 🏛️ In the ruins of Guge, hear the whispers of time Faded thangkas flutter amidst the crumbling walls, and prayer wheels spin through seven centuries of wind. A once-prosperous kingdom now only sees wild foxes running under the moonlight. History teaches us: even the grandest palaces will eventually turn into poetic lines in the sands, but what truly endures is the courage to walk towards the light. 🛕 On the pilgrimage path, feel the warmth of faith Devotees bow every three steps, their foreheads stained with the soil of the plateau. They measure the contours of the sacred mountain with their bodies. Watching their calloused hands, you suddenly realize: faith is not an unreachable altar but every grounded step. It is the butter lamp that never extinguishes in the cold night. 💧 In the ripples of the holy lake, reflect on your true self The waters of Lake Manasarovar swallow the entire starry sky. As your fingertips graze the icy holy water, the anxieties accumulated in the city shatter into shimmering ripples. Happiness, it turns out, can be so simple—just sitting here, facing the snow-capped mountains, listening to the sound of the wind passing through the prayer flags. Southern Tibet is never an ordinary destination. It is a love letter from the earth to the soul, a life classroom forged by cold and grandeur. When you arrive with the weariness of travel, you will leave with a clarity cleansed by the snow-capped mountains. 📌 If you are also searching for the answers to life, let your steps be guided by the winds of Southern Tibet. Under the 5,000-meter starry sky, rediscover the pure, vast, and fearless version of yourself.

#discoverchina Perched at 5,200 meters, Everest Base Camp (EBC) on the Tibetan side is a surreal experience—one that blends adventure, spirituality, and breathtaking landscapes. The first thing that catches your eye? The vibrant prayer flags fluttering in the cold Himalayan wind. These colorful pieces of fabric, strung across rocks and poles, carry prayers and blessings, believed to spread goodwill with every gust. Against the backdrop of Mount Everest’s majestic north face, they create a sight that feels almost sacred. Staying at EBC is no luxury getaway—this is high-altitude, raw, and remote. Most visitors stay in tented camps run by local Tibetans or in the Rongbuk Monastery Guesthouse, the highest monastery in the world. Nights are freezing, and the air is thin, but sipping butter tea under a sky bursting with stars makes it all worth it. The silence at Base Camp is profound, interrupted only by the occasional prayer chants from monks or the wind howling through the valley. Whether you’re an adventurer or a spiritual seeker, a night at EBC Tibet is an unforgettable experience—one that humbles you in the presence of the world’s highest peak. #china #tibet #ebc #travel

Embarking on a journey to Everest Base Camp (EBC) in Tibet was a once-in-a-lifetime experience that left me in awe of nature's grandeur. Located at an altitude of 5,200 meters (17,060 feet), EBC offers a unique perspective on Mount Everest, or "Chomolungma" as it's known in Tibetan, which is the highest peak on Earth, standing at an impressive 8,848.46 meters (29,029 feet). The journey to EBC in Tibet is a mix of adventure, culture, and breathtaking landscapes. As I trekked through the rugged terrains, the ever-present view of Everest towering in the distance was humbling. The altitude here is no joke, and with each step, I could feel the thinness of the air. At 8,848.46 meters, Everest’s summit looms above you, an intimidating yet awe-inspiring reminder of the planet’s natural wonders. What truly stood out during my time at EBC was the serenity of the environment. The base camp, situated near the Rongbuk Monastery, offers views that are nothing short of surreal. Surrounded by rocky landscapes and snowy peaks, the silence is profound, broken only by the occasional gust of wind. The fact that I was standing at the foot of the world's tallest mountain, where climbers prepare for their summit expeditions, gave the experience an almost spiritual quality. I also had the chance to immerse myself in Tibetan culture, with local monks and trekkers adding a layer of richness to the experience. Reaching this point at 5,200 meters felt like a personal victory, but knowing that the summit is a staggering 8,848.46 meters above—an elevation most will never reach—made it even more extraordinary. The Everest Base Camp trek in Tibet is more than just a physical challenge; it's a journey that tests your limits and rewards you with memories that will last forever. #discoverchina #ebc #everestbasecamp #tibet
