Guge Kingdom | The Kingdom That Disappeared Overnight in Tibet

| The Kingdom That Disappeared Overnight in Tibet. The Guge Kingdom has a history of over a thousand years. It was a kingdom built entirely on cliffs. It is said that after the fall of the Tubo Kingdom, the remaining soldiers fled to Ali and established a new dynasty. / The palace was located at the top of the cliff. The Guge Kingdom lasted for over 700 years, but due to internal strife and foreign invasions, it mysteriously disappeared overnight. If you are interested in exploring this mysterious kingdom, here is a guide on how to visit. - 🎫 Tickets: CNY 65/person, sightseeing bus CNY 30/person The sightseeing bus travels about 3 km to the foot of the ancient kingdom ruins. You will need to walk up the mountain. The mountain is 300 meters high, and the altitude here is 3,700 meters, so you will need to bring oxygen. - 🚗 Tour route: After entering, follow the path and pass by the Red Hall ➡️ White Hall ➡️ Tara Hall ➡️ Samsara Hall. There is also a Mandala Hall at the top of the mountain. The hall contains many exquisite murals. The door is usually locked, and you will need staff to open it for you to visit. After reaching the top of the mountain, there is a high dirt slope. Standing on the slope is a great photo opportunity. If you have a drone, it will be even better. / 🎈 After descending the mountain, near the ticket checkpoint, there is a small shop selling cold drinks. Buy a cold drink and sit in the nearby rest area to enjoy a leisurely moment. / 🎈 Walk to the left from the sightseeing bus parking area to reach the Corpse Cave. To be honest, there is not much to see. There is only a cave entrance that you cannot enter. The cave is pitch black, and you cannot see anything. You can only smell a foul odor.
