🏔️ Damxung, Tibet | 360° Tour Guide of Namtso Sacred Lake! The place closest to heaven✨ This is the highest altitude large lake in China, like a sapphire embedded at the foot of the Nyenchen Tanglha Mountains. Every step feels like walking on clouds☁️ 📍Address: 686 meters northeast of the intersection of S206 and Y111 🚗 Transportation Tips: It is recommended to charter a car or drive yourself (about 4 hours from Lhasa) 🌟 Must-Visit Spots 1️⃣ Zhaxi Peninsula The largest peninsula in the lake! The prayer path, Namaste Stone, and Good and Evil Cave are all here. 📸 Best photo spot: Climb the small hill on the peninsula for a panoramic view of the sacred lake. 2️⃣ Welcome Stone The legendary guardian door god of Namtso.

Bring some small bread pieces to enjoy feeding the birds~ 🌊 Seasonal Highlights The lake is bluest from July to September. From November to March, you can see the blue ice wonder! Heavenly lake reflects, prayer flags flutter, at this moment, it feels like you can touch the sky.
