I drove about 560 kilometers along the Yarlung Zangbo River in Tibet. For the other 15 kilometers that belong to the paid scenic area, I could only take a sightseeing bus, which cost a total of 240 yuan, of which 90 yuan was the sightseeing bus fee. The paid Yarlung Zangbo River Scenic Area is located in Pai Town, Milin County, Nyingchi Prefecture, and requires a sightseeing bus to visit. The sightseeing bus has 4 stops along the way, which I think is the most disappointing attraction. I was too lazy to take out my camera at these four stops. But Suosong Village on the north bank of the river is very beautiful when the peach blossoms are in full bloom, although I couldn’t see the entire Namjagbarwa Peak due to the weather. This attraction is included in the scenic area, but not included in the sightseeing bus route. This set of photos were all taken in Suosong Village. I believe that on a sunny day, it will be much more beautiful than it is now, and the peach blossoms will also set off Mount Namjagbarwa. In any case, Suosong Village is a place not to be missed when visiting the Yarlung Zangbo River, but it does make me feel a little unbalanced that you have to pay for it. #ChinaTravel #Tibet #Nyingchi #Yarlung Zangbo River #Mountain #Nangabawa Peak #Peach Blossom #Natural Journey #Natural Beauty

Namchabarwa is the highest mountain in Nyingchi City, Tibet, peak at 7,782 meters, and has the title of Father of Tibetan Mountains. The body of Nanga Bawa is covered with snow all year round and the clouds are lingering. It never reveals its true face easily, so it is also called Shy Girl Mountain in Chinese. We were really lucky this time. In the evening, the mountain peaks were still clouded and misty. When the sun set at 8:07 pm in the evening, all the clouds and mist were dispersed. We even saw the magnificent sight of that the golden sun shines on the mountain. It is said that this mountain range is like a girl lying down, from right to left are her head, chest and feet. The best view point is in Suosong Village in the Yarlung Zangbo River Gorge. There is a milk tea shop in the village. We just drank milk tea and watched all the mountains exposed. It was so shocking! #summervacation

A tropical wonder below the snow line.

Tropical flower cascades pour from the 7,782-meter Namcha Barwa peak to the 800-meter canyon floor.

Seasonally speaking, in early to mid-April, you can see the blooming peach blossoms in Suosong Village, which is over 2,900 meters above sea level. With the distant view of the 5,000-meter-high Nanga Parbat, it is a world-class beauty that is definitely worth visiting. These photos were taken by me every spring since 2014. In autumn, late October to November, Nanga Parbat is more likely to be visible, and the starry sky and moonrise are excellent scenes, making it very worth visiting. The prerequisite is that it is best to stay for more than two days, because Nyingchi is often cloudy and foggy, and it takes two days to encounter a sunny day, a sunrise, and a sunset over the golden mountains. However, because there are only twenty or so indigenous households in Suosong Village, and the homestead is limited, accommodation resources are very scarce. From the extremely poor accommodation environment of CNY 100/person in 2013, it has developed to the point where a room costs CNY 1,000–2,000 or even more per night during the peak season, and some even cost CNY 6,000–7,000/room/day. Like other scenic spots in the world, the most important thing to enjoy the world-class spring scenery of Suosong Village is money. If you don't have a budget of about CNY 3,000/person/day, you will suffer a lot. Some Nyingchi three-day tours charge you a total of CNY 1,200 for three days, which is actually less than half of the cost of transportation + accommodation + tickets. The purpose is to take you to as many shopping stores as possible in one day, and even the toilets are a scam. Under the guise of poverty alleviation, they bet that you will buy Tibetan silver, maca, fritillary, and other Tibetan medicines in order to extract high commissions exceeding 50%. A friend bought a Tibetan silver belt and a water cup for more than CNY 6,000. If you just don't buy it, you will eat pig food and live in dirty and messy rooms. Instead, spend a little more money and stay in Suosong Village for one or even two nights.

I went to Linzhi for a trip and the altitude sickness was really a headache! Especially in the first two days after arriving, I felt dizzy and weak. Fortunately, I made sufficient travel plans and prepared countermeasures in advance. For friends who have never been to Linzhi, this guide will definitely help you. It covers all the popular attractions and practical information. 🗼Transportation to Nyingchi ①Fly directly to Nyingchi Milin Airport At present, Nyingchi mainly relies on Milin Airport to connect with the outside world. Many cities have opened direct flights. If there are no direct flights, you can first transfer at Lhasa Gonggar International Airport, adapt to the plateau environment in Lhasa, and then take a car along the Lhasa-Nyingchi Highway to Nyingchi. The scenery along the way is magnificent, with snow-capped mountains, forests, and rivers. Remember to book your tickets in advance to ensure a smooth trip. ②Train/EMU Station: Linzhi Station Taking the train to Nyingchi is also a good choice. Although the train frequency is not particularly frequent, you can slowly adapt to the increase in altitude along the way and appreciate the vast scenery of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau. After exiting Nyingchi Station, there are a wide range of transportation options, including buses and taxis, making it very convenient to travel to the city or scenic spots. Be sure to purchase tickets in advance during the peak tourist season. 🗼Accommodation reference 🧸【Bayi Town】 The core town of Nyingchi has a wide variety of accommodation options.

However, prices are higher during the peak tourist season and rooms are in short supply. If you want to stay in a room of your choice, make a reservation at least one week in advance.

Every March, peach blossoms are in full bloom here, and the pink and white sea of ​​flowers contrast beautifully with Mount Namjagbarwa in the distance.

If you are lucky, you can also see the whole view of Mount Namjagbarwa. The shock is beyond words. 🗳Basongcuo: The emerald green lake is like emerald, the island in the middle of the lake is quiet and mysterious, the Cozong Gongba Temple on the island has a long history, and the architecture is simple and elegant.

This post begins to update the travelogue of a 6-day, 5-night group tour around Tibet. Day 1: Lhasa → Nyingchi Attractions: Niyang River, River Confluence, Palm-Shaped Sand Dunes, Yarlung Tsangpo Grand Canyon, Namcha Barwa Peak (Suosong Village) The first day's itinerary, from Lhasa to Nyingchi, was entirely on the expressway, with no scenic spots in between, only stopping for lunch off the expressway at noon. At 7:00 a.m., we gathered at the White Pagoda parking lot and set off before dawn. There were seven tourists, five men and two women, in an 8-seater car driven by a Tibetan. From Dazi District, we drove onto the Lhasa-Nyingchi Expressway. Everyone was asleep, except me, as I kept staring out the window. We drove eastward along the Lhasa River Valley, the altitude gradually rising from 3,600m to over 4,000m, and the vegetation on the mountains becoming increasingly sparse. There weren't many cars on the expressway in winter. The sunrise shone on the bare slopes, resembling the golden glow of sunshine on snow-capped mountains. After passing Gongbo'gyamda County, the expressway left the Lhasa River Valley, the mountains on both sides gradually drew closer, and the scenery outside the window also changed. Tibetan songs played in the car. The driver broke the silence first, jokingly offering to introduce the handsome guys in the car to Drolma. This joke was played on us all the way, which was quite funny. After everyone woke up and started chatting, the atmosphere in the car improved significantly. Since I was sitting in the passenger seat, and I strongly dislike sleeping in cars, I took on the tasks of chatting with the driver, announcing the route, and forecasting meal times for the next few days. We arrived at the Mila Mountain Tunnel, the highest point of the Lhasa-Nyingchi Expressway. After exiting the tunnel, we entered the Niyang River Valley, and the altitude began to gradually decrease. The number of snow-capped mountains on both sides of the narrow Niyang River Canyon began to increase, presenting another kind of scenery. As the altitude decreased, the vegetation on the mountains gradually increased. Passing Gongbo'gyamda County, the mountains ahead were suddenly covered with snow. The driver said it must have snowed last night. We were so lucky. Except for the expressway surface, the river valley, forests, and mountains were all covered in white, which looked extremely beautiful against the blue sky and white clouds. We arrived at Bayi Town, an expressway exit leading to Basum Lake Scenic Area, where we got off the expressway for lunch. There were many tour groups here, and the meals were pre-ordered. The taste, well, it was the worst meal we had in these six days. We continued on the expressway, the altitude getting lower and lower, and the Niyang River getting wider and wider. The emerald green river water, towering snow-capped mountains, and the canyon scenery became more and more beautiful. We arrived at Nyingchi City. After passing the urban area of Nyingchi, we left the Lhasa-Nyingchi Expressway and drove onto the Nyingchi Airport Expressway. On the way, we saw the Sichuan-Tibet Railway and Nyingchi Railway Station under construction. Getting off the expressway, we were about to turn into the Yarlung Tsangpo Grand Canyon. At a small viewing platform on the roadside, we saw the confluence of rivers (Yarni Wetland), where the Niyang River and Yarlung Tsangpo River meet. Continuing forward, we arrived at the Palm-Shaped Sand Dunes, a huge sand dune hill by the river. The driver also told us a related legend. The river water displayed different shades of blue and green under the influence of sunlight and shadows. The altitude here is less than 3,000m, with abundant water vapor and a very comfortable environment. Continuing deeper into the Yarlung Tsangpo Grand Canyon, the canyon became narrower and narrower, and the oppressive feeling of the snow-capped mountains on both sides became stronger and stronger. The Yarlung Tsangpo Grand Canyon in winter has fewer people and is free of charge, so the journey was very smooth. At 3:00 p.m., our car was the first to arrive at Suosong Village. After viewing Namcha Barwa Peak from the viewing platform outside the village, we went to check in. Then the driver took us further in, visually getting very close to Namcha Barwa Peak. The low altitude of the Yarlung Tsangpo Grand Canyon further highlighted the towering height of Namcha Barwa Peak (7,782m), but the cloud cover made it difficult to see the main peak. We had dinner at Suosong Village, a hot pot with chicken cooked in a stone pot. Although everything except the soup base was vegetarian, we, having been in the car all day, ate with great relish. After dinner, we happened to catch the sunset and witnessed a near-perfect golden glow on Namcha Barwa. The main peak of Namcha Barwa, rarely seen by most, appeared faintly behind the clouds. When the other surrounding snow-capped mountains gradually dimmed, only Namcha Barwa Peak shone with golden light, showing its towering figure to the tourists who came to admire it. Although Suosong Village is not large, Namcha Barwa Peak has made this small mountain village famous. The evening activities were also lively. If it were summer, one can imagine the popularity here, it would definitely be hard to find a room.
