The mountains are naturally unpolished, yet they understand my persistent gaze--sharing a piece of the Himalayas on an early morning at Zabala Ri Snow Mountain
The mountains are naturally unpolished, yet they understand my persistent gaze--sharing a secret realm of the Himalayas at Zabala Ri Snow Mountain, the Dzorila Mu Snow Mountain.
This journey took us along wild paths following the Himalayan range, off-roading on scarcely trodden mountain roads, with the Himalayas accompanying us the entire way, never once disappearing from our sight. We witnessed landscapes that were incredibly, incredibly, incredibly stunning, and the feeling of being the only ones around was just too good.

Tibet Travel Day1
Itinerary: Lhasa - Gangbala Pass - Yamdrok Lake - Karola Glacier Manla Reservoir - Shigatse
Yamdrok Lake Pass is at an altitude of 4998M and is the best viewing platform overlooking Yamdrok Lake. The lake is even quieter in winter, with a thick layer of ice on the surface. The blue of Yamdrok Lake makes it hard to tell whether the sky in Tibet is bluer or the lake is bluer.
The highest point of Karola Glacier, which can be reached by escalator, is close to an altitude of 5400M
Karola Glacier is backed by the southern slope of one of the four major peaks in Tibet - Naiqinkang Sang Peak, and is also the location for the shooting of the movie 'Red River Valley'. It is really spectacular when viewed up close.
On the way from Yamdrok Lake to Karola Glacier, we passed an unnamed glacier, which is as spectacular as Karola Glacier, and you can stop the car to admire it.

2023-10-10 Today I left the heart of Yang Lake. As soon as I left the heart of Yang Lake, I heard that this scenic spot was closed. The reason is unknown, it's just closed. Today I will go to Pumoyongcuo. Pumoyongcuo is the largest freshwater lake in Tibet, with an altitude of 5010 meters. Tourism accommodation is being developed here. The scenery along the way is beautiful. We walk and take pictures. Continue to Yalong County. On the way, we pass through Duoqing Lake. Duoqing Lake is also a wetland park. There are many wild geese nesting here. The scenery is really beautiful. We walk along the 562 National Road and see Zhuomulaji Snow Mountain. Zhuomulaji Snow Mountain is very close to the road. If the weather is good, you can see the sunset golden mountain. We didn't arrive at the hotel to rest until more than nine o'clock in the evening.
