Tibet, the beauty of the sacred mountain Sap, there is no lie!

If Tibet is a book📖 then Sapu is the most incomparable page in the book It is rated as one of the sacred mountains that must be visited in this lifetime by National Geographic️❗️ . It turns out that there are really places in the world that are so beautiful that they are unreal️ Continuous and cold triangular snow peaks The crystal clear holy lake formed by the melting of thousands of years of ice and snow Wild flowers and meadows all over the mountains🌷 All words cannot describe everything in front of you 📍Location Sapu Sacred Mountain is located in Puzong Valley, Yangxiu Township, Burang County, Nagqu City, Tibet Autonomous Region. 🚗Transportation External arrival: Self-driving or chartering a car from Lhasa is a more convenient way. First, take G109 to S303 to Burang County (about 12 hours, 600 kilometers), then go to Sap via Yangxiu Township (2 hours on a dirt road, requiring a four-wheel drive off-road vehicle); you can also take the Lhasa to Burang County bus (one bus per day, departing at 7:00), and then share a car to Sap. Internal transportation: You need to walk or ride a horse (200 yuan/person) to get from the outer lake to the inner lake. The gravel road is easy to get stuck in the rainy season. 🌸Best season May-June: The lake surface begins to melt, the blue ice cracks like abstract paintings, and yaks walk on the ice lake. September-October: Autumn colors permeate the meadows, the snow-capped mountains are reflected clearly, and the starry sky is highly visible. 🌟 Recommended gameplay ⛰ Core landscape Waihu sunrise: The morning light ignites the Sapu peaks (main peak 6956 meters), the best camera position is at the prayer flag viewing platform. ⛰Neihu Glacier: Hike for 3 hours (or ride a horse) to the foot of the glacier and touch the blue ice that has existed for thousands of years (climbing is prohibited). ⛰ Holy Mountain and Holy Lake: The Pyramid-shaped Sap Wife Peak is reflected in the icy lake. In summer, broken ice floats on the lake like diamonds. 🌌In-depth experience: · Starry sky camping: camp in the designated area outside the lake (4,800 meters above sea level), and watch the Milky Way fall on the top of the ice peak at midnight. · Bon circumambulation: Follow the local herdsmen around the outer lake clockwise (7 hours), passing the thousand-year-old Mani pile. 🏡Home visit in pastoral area: Drink butter tea at a herdsman’s home near Sangda Monastery and listen to the legend of the Sap family (must bring a translator or guide). 🍱Food sharing There is no restaurant in the scenic area, so you need to bring your own dry food, such as compressed biscuits and chocolate (which can be purchased in Biru County). You can also try the nomadic simple meals, such as air-dried yak beef (50 yuan/portion) or tsampa (10 yuan/bowl). Don’t miss the butter tea, a great anti-altitude aid, which is freshly brewed in the herdsmen’s tents (15 yuan/pot). 🏨Accommodation plan 🌌Extreme wildness: pitch your own tent (-20℃ sleeping bag required for -10℃ at night). 🏡Basic accommodation: Waihu Tibetan-style board house (100 yuan/person, no toilet, large bunk bed). 🌟Comfortable choice: "Sapu Hotel" in Baiga Township (standard room 300 yuan/night, 1.5 hours' drive from the scenic area). 📌Precautions 👉For high-reaction patients: Take Rhodiola rosea 2 days in advance and avoid strenuous exercise; adapt to Lhasa/Nagqu for 1 night before departure. 👉Road condition warning: The 40km paved road from Yangxiu Township to Sap may be closed due to landslides during the rainy season (July-August). 👉Environmental protection beliefs: Do not discard garbage, do not step on Mani stones; do not circumambulate the mountain counterclockwise, and women should not approach the holy lake during menstruation. 💖My dears, Mount Sapu is really worth a visit! I believe you will be deeply shocked by its beautiful scenery when you go there!
