NyingChi 🌏 🌱

#earthdayjourney We visited Lulang Forest and it felt like stepping into a fairytale. Surrounded by snow-capped mountains, rolling meadows, and dense spruce woods, we breathed in some of the freshest air imaginable. What impressed us most was how the area is protected by eco-tourism policies—plastic use is restricted, and local lodges are built using natural materials. We explored the forest trails slowly, soaking in the energy of this untouched landscape. I would definitely recommend this spot to anyone who wants to celebrate Earth Day in nature’s quiet embrace. 🌲 📍 Lulang Forest, Nyingchi County, Tibet Autonomous Region We explored Basum Tso Lake, a sacred glacial lake surrounded by pine forests and snow peaks. The water was incredibly clear, and we took a peaceful walk along the wooden boardwalk that protects the lake’s delicate ecosystem. What made this visit special was learning how local Tibetan communities preserve the lake’s purity through strict rules on waste and water use. It’s a place where spirituality and sustainability come together beautifully. I would highly recommend making time for this peaceful Earth Day stop. 🧘♀️💧 📍 Basum Tso Lake, Nyingchi County, Tibet Autonomous Region We spent time in Nyingchi Town, a small but beautiful hub where eco-conscious travel is growing steadily. Solar panels are common here, and many guesthouses use local materials and support waste reduction efforts. We visited a tea house that sources everything locally and met locals who are proud to protect their land while welcoming respectful travelers. I would recommend this as a base for exploring the area slowly, thoughtfully, and in harmony with nature. Perfect for an Earth Day weekend. ☀️🍵 📍 Nyingchi Town, Nyingchi County, Tibet Autonomous Region
