Yala Xiangbu - a hidden secret land of green ice.

If you feel that too many people have gone to Qiongmugangri to see the blue ice recently, and you feel that it is a bit of a trend and you don’t want to go, but you still want to be alone and quiet to see the snow-capped mountains, then you must not miss this place, that is Yala Xiangbu. Yala Xiangbu is located in Shannan, not far from Lhasa, but most people have never heard of it. The first reason is that it is relatively unknown, and the second is that you need to hike to see its true appearance. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is a hidden secret realm. The most important thing is that you don’t need tickets. Yala Xiangbu in winter is so stunning. The entire lake appears emerald green under the sun, and the nearby Yala Xiangbu Snow Mountain is in full view. When you walk on the green lake, it seems as if the whole world is quiet. However, this place is not easily accessible by ordinary vehicles. You must drive hardcore off-road to reach the foot of the mountain, because from the Yasang Temple there is a long section of bomb craters and clothes-washing board road, so sedans or cars with low chassis should never try, otherwise it is easy to go there and not come back. Drive to the foot of the mountain and start hiking to reach the lake at the top of the mountain. It usually takes about 2 hours, and the climb is from 4,800 meters to 5,200 meters, so it still requires some physical strength. It is not recommended for some novices, as it is easy to get altitude sickness in winter and the wind on the top of the mountain is also very strong. After reaching the top of the mountain, not only is the snow-capped mountain within reach, but you can also walk to the glacier. I believe the scenery will definitely make you feel that no matter how tired you are, it is worth it. So, in this winter, are you willing to get to know this niche secret?
