2025 Lhozhag Travel Guide: Must-see attractions, popular food, hotels, transportation routes (updated in May)

At six o'clock in the morning, I stood on the viewing terrace of Pingcuo Kangsang Shanli Zhongliang wrapped in a blanket. The wind was biting, but I was full of expectations. The first ray of golden light pierced through the clouds, and the snow-capped peaks of Kulagangri were instantly ignited, like a cluster of burning flames🔥! The entire mountain range gradually changed from dark blue to golden red, and finally turned into dazzling silver-white, as if the gods had sprinkled gold fragments on the top of the snow-capped mountains. 🌄 Why choose here? ✅ Facing Kulagangri: The homestay faces the snow-capped mountains, and you can see the sunrise while lying in bed (good news for those who stay in bed!) ✅ Altitude-friendly: It is much easier than hiking and you can feel the same shock without suffering from altitude sickness. ✅ **Tibetan aesthetics**: rammed earth walls, copper kettle butter tea, yak wool blankets...the warmth of Tibet can be seen in every detail. **📸 Photography Tips** ▪️ Use telephoto! The sense of compression can make the snow-capped mountains seem close to the window (mobile phones can also take great photos) ▪️ Wear a light-colored sweater or Tibetan robe, your hair will glow when facing the backlight💫 ▪️ Take a time-lapse video to see the magical moment when golden light "flows" across the mountain ridge **☕️ After viewing** We returned to the restaurant to have a cup of sweet tea, and the Tibetan Ajia brought us some hot Tibetan noodles. The snow-capped mountains outside the window are still dazzling, and the yak stove in the house is crackling - the romance of ice and fire is just like this. > Phuntsok Khamsang means "place of perfection" in Tibetan. > I think anyone who has seen this sunrise should understand this name. Location: Shannan, Lhoza County

#MarchGoodPlaces2025 Shannan, Tibet, China is a world-famous tourist area, with thousands of tourists coming here for sightseeing every day. There are many temple attractions in Shannan. This time I will introduce a famous temple attraction in Shannan: Luozhuo Worong Temple. Free to visit and take photos📸, no need to buy tickets. Lodzog Wolong Monastery is a Kagyu monastery built by Master Marpa when he was 29 years old, after he returned to Tibet after staying in India for 12 years. It is also the place where Milarepa, the great disciple of Marpa, practiced. The monks in the temple are very enthusiastic, giving tours and free explanations, and they are very down-to-earth. I really like this place, with endless holy water, romantic colors, shy children and charming deer. There are many more stories waiting to be heard.

🌟 This self-drive tour of Tibet ends in the high-altitude southern region of Tibet. Finally, I can share my thoughts on self-driving in Tibet in winter. This route follows the border. On some days, you need to show your border pass four times. A border pass and ID card are essential, so be sure to carry them with you. 🌟 This route takes you around some of the most beautiful snow-capped mountains. In my opinion, the most beautiful is Kula Kangri, with its snow-capped mountains and lakes. You need to make an effort to see the beautiful scenery. The most stunning is the frozen Puma Yumco Lake, and the most beautiful lakes are the uninhabited Chongba Yumco Lake and Zongcuo Lake. 🌟 In terms of accommodation, the conditions in Tibet have improved a lot compared to four or five years ago. Even the two worst places on this trip, Luozha County and Gangba County, have underfloor heating. Hotels above 4,000 m with oxygen generators are much better. In Lhasa, I recommend the Pingcuo Kangtsang Oxygen-Rich Hotel. Self-drive travelers love this hotel, and the conditions are great. 🌟 Prices in Lhasa are not cheaper than in Shanghai, and busy restaurants are not necessarily good. It's all down to luck. However, there are plenty of chain milk tea, coffee, and restaurants, which is a big improvement. 🌟 10-Day Tibet Tour Itinerary Day 1: Fly from Shanghai to Lhasa via Chengdu. The altitude is a little high at 3,600 m. Check in to the Pingcuo Kangtsang Oxygen-Rich Hotel in Lhasa. The view from this self-drive hotel is also highly recommended. Day 2: Visit the Potala Palace in Lhasa. The Potala Palace is built on a mountain and is magnificent. The main building consists of the White Palace and the Red Palace. The White Palace is the winter palace of the Dalai Lamas and the center of political and religious power. The Red Palace is a place for religious activities and the tombs of the Dalai Lamas. The palace houses countless Buddha statues, scriptures, and precious cultural relics. After visiting the Potala Palace, go straight to Yaowang Mountain and bring a 50 yuan note. Yaowang Mountain is opposite the Red Mountain, where the Potala Palace is located. It is a great place to take photos of the Potala Palace and is the location of the image on the back of the 50 yuan note. Day 3: Lhasa—Yamdrok Lake—Puma Yumco Lake—Luozha County, altitude 3,800 m. Check in to the Luozha Longba Manor Hotel. Yamdrok Lake is 4,441 m above sea level and is one of the most famous lakes in Tibet. Puma Yumco Lake is between 5,000 m and 5,100 m above sea level and is the largest freshwater lake in southern Tibet. Luozha County is located on the southern slope of the Himalayas, with an average altitude of 3,870 m. Day 4: Luozha County—Cuoyu Village—Baimalin Lake Hike—Kangma County, altitude 4,300 m. Check in to the Kangma Yuhuang Oxygen-Rich Hotel, which is close to the county and has convenient transportation. Cuoyu Village is a small Tibetan village at an altitude of 4,160 m and is an important stop near the starting point of the Baimalin Lake hike. The hike from Cuoyu Village is about 12 km, with an altitude of about 4,500 m. You need to cross meadows, climb hills, and traverse cliffs. Day 5: Kangma County—Chongba Yumco Lake—Duoqingcuo Lake—Zhuomulari—Dui Na San Cuo Lake—Qudeng Nima—Gangba County, altitude 4,600 m. Check in to the Gangba Plateau Oxygen-Rich Hotel. This route passes through many beautiful lakes and snow-capped mountains in Tibet. The scenery along the way is picturesque, and the self-drive tour is amazing. Day 6: Gangba County—Zongcuo Lake—Xilin Viewing Platform—Mount Everest Guandi Temple—Gyirong Town, altitude 2,900 m. Check in to the Gyirong Oxygen-Rich Hotel. At Mount Everest Guandi Temple, you can see the peaks of the Mount Everest Scenic Area and experience the shock of the top of the world. Gyirong Town is an important port between Tibet and Nepal. There are many Nepalese people and shops in the town, and you can experience the unique border style. Day 7: Gyirong Town—Peiku Lake—Mount Everest Castle—Shigatse, altitude 3,900 m. Check in to the Shigatse Hilton Hotel. Peiku Lake is the largest inland lake in the Mount Everest Reserve. The lake is clear and blue, surrounded by mountains on three sides, and the terrain is open. There are wild horses, Tibetan wild donkeys, Tibetan antelopes, and other wild animals on the shore of the lake. Mount Everest Castle is a military fortress built by the Qing army more than 200 years ago. The castle is a great place to see Mount Everest, and you can see the Himalayas from the castle. Day 8: Shigatse Tashilhunpo Monastery—Lhasa, check in to the Pingcuo Kangtsang Hotel. Tashilhunpo Monastery is located in the Sangzhuzi District of Shigatse City and is one of the four major monasteries of the Gelug Sect of Tibetan Buddhism.

Jokhang Temple is located in the center of the old city of Lhasa. It was built more than 1,300 years ago by King Songtsen Gampo to house the statue of Sakyamuni brought from Chang'an in the Tang Dynasty. This temple is not only a holy place of Tibetan Buddhism but also a treasure of Tibetan culture. Ramoche Temple is located about 500 m north of Barkhor Street in Lhasa. It was built in the mid-7th century and houses an 8-year-old statue of Sakyamuni, which is extremely sacred and precious. Day 10: Fly from Lhasa to Shanghai. Finally, the 10-day trip is over, and I can go home and have a good sleep on the plains.

"Why are you going to Kula Kangri?" 🏔️ Before setting off, countless people asked me this question. Perhaps it was to escape the hustle and bustle of the city, perhaps it was to challenge my limits, or perhaps it was simply to find an answer. At 4 am, the night in Lhasa had not yet faded, and I was already on the bus to Lhozhag. Outside the window, the wind was howling, and inside the bus, there were snores rising and falling, but I was unusually awake. ❄️Day 1: First Encounter with Kula Kangri, Heart Racing Starting from Se Township, I hiked along the winding mountain road, the altitude gradually rising, and my breathing became rapid. But when I looked up and saw the peaks of Kula Kangri, all the fatigue disappeared. The snow-capped peaks shone brightly in the sunlight, like a paradise within reach. ❄️Day 2: Talking to the Sacred Mountain, Tears Flowing Today's journey was exceptionally difficult, crossing a pass over 5,000 meters above sea level, every step felt like stepping on cotton. But when I stood at the pass and looked down at the Baimalin Lake, tears flowed uncontrollably. The lake was as blue as jade, reflecting the blue sky and white clouds, breathtakingly beautiful. At that moment, I seemed to hear the whispers of the sacred mountain, telling stories of a thousand years. ❄️Day 3: Farewell, for a Better Reunion On the last day, I chose to sit quietly by the Jiejucuo Lake, watching the sunlight sprinkle on the lake, creating sparkling waves. I knew it was time to say goodbye. But I knew that the emotions and shock this trekking journey brought me would remain in my memory forever. ✨Tips: The Kula Kangri trekking route is relatively mature, but the altitude is high, it is recommended to do physical training and altitude sickness prevention in advance. Pay attention to environmental protection during the trek, do not litter. The weather on the plateau is unpredictable, prepare warm clothing and rain gear. Finally, I want to say: Kula Kangri, a place that haunts people's dreams. Here, I found inner peace and the courage to move forward. If you also want to go on a spontaneous trip, then come to Kula Kangri, I believe you will also find your own answer.

Kulagangri is located in Shannan City. It takes nearly 6 hours to drive from Lhasa Airport to the south, passing Yanghu Lake and Pumoyongcuo. Except for the last section from Se Township to Baimalincuo, which is very bad, the rest of the road is full of snow-capped mountains over 7,000 meters such as Rihe Karezhan, and many lakes such as Baimalincuo. Kulagangri includes three hiking routes, corresponding to three lakes. Each route can be traveled back and forth within one day. The starting point is the Baimalincuo parking lot in Cuoyu Village (Chuyu). You can choose a 1-3 day hiking route according to your own situation. ▪️Altitude The highest peak is 7,538 meters, one of the "Four Sacred Mountains" in Tibet The entire snow mountain consists of three peaks, standing in the middle of the Himalayas. ▪️Hiking tips: -Hiking route: Baima Jincuo Lake Circle⛰️ Cuoyu Village - Parking lot (starting point of the hike) - End of Baima Jincuo - Return to the parking lot along the original route (end of the hike) The difficulty is not high, it can be said that it is a route that novices can take~ 🧭Navigation: Baima Jincuo Family Hotel 🎫Garbage removal fee 20 🚗After the second checkpoint, the road will become a little difficult to walk on. Drive up the mountain for half an hour, park the car, and then you can start hiking! We ate some self-heating rice before hiking to ensure we had enough energy for the hike, which took about 4 hours round trip. ▪️Photography tips: 1️⃣Walk up from the parking lot, you can see the prayer flags by the Baimajincuo Lake, and you can take pictures of the Kulagangri Snow Mountain and Baimajincuo in the same frame. We also took some portraits here 2️⃣Go up the mountain on the right path and you will reach a small pavilion in about 20 minutes. The scenery here is also very good. 3️⃣ Continue walking along the dirt slope to the highest point. The scenery of the snow-capped mountains and lakes on the left is very beautiful. You can take pictures of the snow-capped mountains and lakes. 4️⃣There are several large rock camera positions, which can capture magnificent and majestic photos, but please pay attention to safety when going up and down the rocks. 5️⃣After climbing to the highest point, climb up again. The slope is very steep and you have to climb up to the highest point! You can use a drone to take aerial photos, which is very shocking! ⚠️Note: 1️⃣Apply for a border pass Because in Shannan area, you should apply for a border pass at your place of residence before starting your trip. In Lhasa, you need to queue up for a long time and spend unnecessary 2️⃣There is no signal when you go up from the parking lot. Make a plan in advance. Safety first 3️⃣Altitude sickness problem. Walk slowly, don't run or jump too fast, don't carry too many things to increase the burden (lose weight to move forward), we all have a bottle of water + a Snickers bar + a few candies (friends with poor physical strength can also bring two glucose sticks) 4️⃣ Outfit The wind is very strong on the mountain, so a windproof jacket is very necessary Hats and sunglasses are also very necessary. Choose shoes that are light and easy to walk on and go up and down hills. 5️⃣Sunscreen Do whatever sun protection you can! The ultraviolet rays are really strong!

Baimacuo, a hidden gem in Shannan I've been to Tibet more than a dozen times, but this is my first time in Shannan. I didn't expect to see so many magnificent views here. Even without a clear sky, Baimacuo is still tranquil and deep. Kulagangri is hidden in the clouds, and Baimacuo is green and blue at the foot of the snow-capped mountain. Tibet is a mysterious land, and Shannan is a pearl on this land.

Just returned from hiking Kulaganjri, and the scenery in November is absolutely stunning. Sunny days are the best filter! The snow-capped mountains and lakes look much better than those overly saturated photos. Even beginners can handle this hike! 1️⃣ This time, I hiked the entire 36km of Kulaganjri, averaging 12km per day, with an elevation gain of 200-700m. Although the altitude is quite high (above 4500 meters), it doesn't require much physical strength! 2️⃣ Visiting in November-December, the visual effect is comparable to EBC. The weather is very clear and clean, and the snow-capped mountains of Kulaganjri are not foggy or gloomy. The lake water reflects light more transparently and beautifully. You can see the golden sunrise and blue ice, as shown in pictures 3-4. It's just a bit cold (daytime -6~2℃), and it occasionally snows. 3️⃣ In terms of scenery, Baimalin Lake > Zhegong Lake > Jiejie Lake. In terms of difficulty, Zhegong Lake is the hardest, with an elevation gain of 700m and the highest altitude reaching 5100m. You can choose whether to go to the top based on your personal condition! 4️⃣ There is no signal on the mountain!!! There is only WiFi signal in the guesthouse in Sexiang, so be sure to take note! ⚠️ I suggest beginners like me join a commercial group for the hike. They provide satellite communication facilities, oxygen, and outdoor first aid kits. The guide also arranged an oxygen-supplied hotel for us, which was quite comfortable. So, I only had a headache and nausea on days 3 and 4, but I adapted later! 5️⃣ Speaking of altitude sickness, I think adapting to the altitude, keeping warm, resting well, and having some food and drinks are very important! At high altitudes, you can't catch a cold. Sleeping well keeps your spirits up. You can bring glucose to mix into a thermos while hiking! 6️⃣ Currently, Kulaganjri is not overly commercialized. Instant noodles cost 5 yuan, dumplings and noodles are 17-20 yuan, and a proper meal costs around 40 yuan if shared. You can also bring your own food for self-sufficiency! ✅ Here is a list of our hiking gear for reference: ▪️ ID card, some cash ▪️ Border pass (you need to get this from your local police station, or ask the guide to help) ▪️ 45-60L outdoor backpack, 28L small backpack ▪️ 1L thermos, toiletries, gastrointestinal medicine, headache medicine, cold medicine, sunscreen, sunglasses, lip balm ▪️ Magic headscarf, hat, crampons, snow gaiters, gloves ▪️ Windproof jacket and pants, down jacket/fleece, mid-cut hiking shoes (to prevent sprains), fleece clothes, spare underwear, thick long socks In summary, if you want to experience a high-altitude beginner route in November-December, you should definitely add Kulaganjri to your itinerary!
