Yamdrok Lake | Close to the sky, far from people

I envy the cows here, Living in such a scenery every day, I really want to eat grass by the lake🤣 📍Yamdrok Lake (Yamdrok) One of the three major sacred lakes in Tibet, with an altitude of over 4,000 meters, The wind is very gentle, and the lake is also very gentle🍃. Compared to the viewing platform, I prefer the scenery along the way, I don't know which is bluer, the sky or the lake, the clouds seem to be within reach, The herd of cows is leisurely eating grass by the lake, Only when you get off the car and walk here, do you feel truly integrated into nature. ✅Route: Lhasa-Yamdrok Lake-Karola Glacier (return the same way) Yamdrok Lake is not far from Lhasa, it can be round-trip in one day, it is recommended to drive by yourself or charter a car, you can stop to take pictures when you encounter a scenery you like. ✅Yamdrok Lake is very large, half of the journey is along the lake, in addition to checking in at the viewing platform, stopping the car along the way to walk by the lake, getting close to the cows in Tibet, and stacking Mani piles by the lake to pray for blessings, is also an interesting experience. 🚘Road conditions: To go to Yamdrok Lake, you need to pass through the Karola Pass first. The road is very smooth, but there is a long winding mountain road. I don’t know how many bends have passed. It is a test of driving skills. If you are driving for the first time, you need to be mentally prepared.
