China-Nepal Border, Tingri County 858200, China
Recommended sightseeing time:
1 hour
Drive straight to the closest place to the 8,000-meter snow mountain in Tibet.
There are too many snow mountains in Tibet, but most of them are far away from the viewing platform, and photos 📷 also need to be taken with a telephoto lens. But I found a place very, very close to the 8,000-meter snow mountain. It should be the closest place for ordinary tourists to see the 8,000-meter snow mountain.
📍Dingri County Pushila Mountain Pass
This is the only way to Rongxia Township, and it is also the best viewing platform to admire Cho Oyu. It takes about 2 hours to drive from Gangga Town, and the road conditions are very good throughout the journey.
【What snow mountains can you see here🏔️】
🛻8201 meters, the world's sixth peak, Cho Oyu
🛻7952 meters, Gezhongkang Peak
🛻6666 meters, Qiaolazang Peak
✅On the way to Pushila Mountain Pass, you can admire an 8,000-meter snow mountain, Cho Oyu, and several 6,000-meter and 7,000-meter snow mountains
✅In addition to Cho Oyu, the most eye-catching is the 6666-meter Qiaolazang Snow Mountain (Figure 5). This number is too lucky for Chinese people.
✅The only way from Gangga Town to Rongxia Gully, about 20km out of Gangga Town, you can see the perspective of P2-P3, which is very suitable for taking road photos. It is recommended to use telephoto shooting
✅The accommodation conditions in Rongxia Township and Gangga Town are not good, please consider whether to stay
Travel tips ‼️
⚠️
Be sure to bring your ID card and border pass
⚠️
It's very cold under the snow mountain, you must bring a down jacket
⚠️
When you see a place close to the snow mountain, stop the car, then climb a small hill, basically it is the best position
Note❗️
Sisters, if you want to take more pictures, you can continue to walk towards the snow mountain for a while, about 1 hour is enough.
