Breathtaking Beauty! Mount Everest

On the way to Everest Base Camp, you'll pass by a stone cave inscribed with the words 'I Love You, China.' Many visitors stop here to take photos with the red flag and the snow-capped mountains. However, only those who have braved the heart-stopping 108 hairpin turns truly understand the awe and emotion brought by that single stroke of red. How many times in a lifetime can you visit Everest? Make the most of it and take plenty of photos! 👉 Click the product card below to sign up for a group tour and travel worry-free. Classic Route Reference: ✅ Acclimatization in Lhasa • Visit Potala Palace and Jokhang Temple to adapt to the high-altitude environment. ✅ Lhasa → Shigatse • Pass by Yamdrok Lake and Karola Glacier, and stay overnight in Shigatse (altitude: 3,800 meters). • Must-visit: Tashilhunpo Monastery (residence of the Panchen Lama). ✅ Shigatse → Everest Base Camp • Travel along National Highway 318 to Dingri County, then transfer to an eco-friendly vehicle to reach the base camp (altitude: 5,200 meters). ✅ Everest → Saga • Enjoy views of Shishapangma Peak and Peiku Tso Lake along the way, and stay overnight in Saga. ✅ Saga → Ngari (Mount Kailash/Manasarovar Lake) • Key attractions: • Mount Kailash (sacred mountain, takes 2-3 days to circumambulate; non-hikers can view from afar). • Manasarovar Lake (sacred lake, adjacent to Lake Rakshastal, entrance fee: 150 RMB). • Zanda Earth Forest (a geological wonder; you can also visit the ruins of the Guge Kingdom en route). 🔥 Recommended lesser-known yet stunning photography spots around Everest: 📷 Gawu La Pass 📷 Old Dingri 📷 Sand Dunes along National Highway 219 in Tingri ⁉️ TIPS: 1. Winter temperatures vary greatly between day and night, so dress warmly. 2. Even in winter, UV rays are strong, so bring sunscreen and protective gear. 3. Travel light when heading to Everest Base Camp, as carrying heavy loads at high altitudes can be exhausting. 4. Winter snow often makes roads slippery and icy, and mountain roads can be dangerous. Since there are no official shuttle buses, it's safest to rent a car, hire a driver, or join a group tour.
