Just went this summer! So beautiful it brought me to tears!! Namtso Lake

Namtso Lake, Tibet | An ultimate encounter with the sacred lake✨ One of the "Three Sacred Lakes" you must visit in Tibet! I just went this summer and was truly moved to tears😭 Sharing the most complete guide with you all👇 📍Location: Damxung County, Tibet Autonomous Region 🏔️Itinerary: 🔸Day 1: • Depart from Lhasa at 8 AM🚗 • Enjoy the stunning snow peaks of Nyenchen Tanglha Mountains along the way🏔️ • Arrive at Tashi Peninsula by noon📍 • Stroll by the lake + take tons of photos📸 (warm-colored clothes recommended) • Return to Damxung County town for overnight stay at dusk💤 🚗Transportation tips: • Carpool: about 200 RMB per person💰 • Self-drive: off-road vehicle recommended, can stop anytime for photos but road conditions are complex • Private car hire: more comfortable, slightly more expensive but worth it 🏨Accommodation tips: • Simple guesthouses inside the scenic area: great for stargazing at night🌌 • Recommended★ Damxung County town hotels: such as Damxung Grand Hotel (standard room about 300 RMB/night), better conditions 🛍️Shopping: • Suggested to buy in Lhasa: • Must-buy specialties: yak jerky, Tibetan incense, handmade thangka paintings🎨 🍜Food recommendations: • Butter tea: warms the heart and stomach without being greasy🥛 • Tibetan yogurt: tangy and appetizing • Dried yak meat: very chewy ⚠️Precautions: 1. Altitude 4718 meters❗ Prepare oxygen bottles in advance 2. Large temperature difference🌀 Windproof and warm clothing essential 3. Strong UV rays☀️ Sunscreen + sunglasses are a must 4. Avoid strenuous exercise🤸‍♀️ Prevent altitude sickness 🎥Recommended photo spots: • Tashi Peninsula viewing platform • Sacred Elephant Gate (reservation required) • Prayer flag clusters by the lake Every scene looks like a Windows desktop! Trust me, you must visit Namtso Lake at least once in your life✨
