Its pyramid-shaped mountain body appears majestic and imposing.Snow-capped peaks year-roundThe mountain is flanked by three major ridges—the northeast ridge, southeast ridge, and west ridge—with three steep cliffs (north face, east face, and southwest face) nestled between them. Among these ridges and cliffs lie over 500 large glaciers, adorned with spectacular and rare ice towers, ice cliffs towering dozens of meters high, and deep crevasses. These breathtaking views come together to form the majestic "Third Pole of the Earth." The climate here is complex and unpredictable, often changing dramatically even within a single day.

Shishapangma is located in the middle of the Himalayas in Nyalam County, Shigatse City, with an altitude of about 8,012 meters. It ranks 14th among 14 8,000-meter peaks in the world. It is an 8,000-meter peak completely within China. The criss-crossing cracks in the ice and snow and the occasional giant ice avalanche create difficulties for climbers. The climatic characteristics of Shishapangma are generally similar to those of Mount Everest, consisting of three sister peaks with similar heights, with two peaks of nearly 8,000 meters respectively about 200 meters and about 400 meters northwest of the main peak. The northern slope faces the Yebo Kangalle Glacier, and the Daqu Glacier is parallel to it. To the east of the north ridge is the Geya Glacier, and the southern slope has the Fuqu Glacier, the end of which descends to the 4,550-meter shrub forest belt. What is fascinating is the ice tower area between 5000-5800 meters above sea level, which is several kilometers long and has a strange landscape shape, just like a living "ice crystal garden".China · Nyalam County

Tangra Yumco is located in Wenbu No. 2 Village, Northern Tibet, next to the ruins of the Zhangzhung Kingdom. At an altitude of 4,530m, it is one of Tibet's famous holy lakes and a very important sacred lake for the Bon religion. This remote area features crystal-clear water and breathtaking scenery.

Due to its strategic, easily defensible terrain and favorable climate, this was once the site of the royal palace of the Zhangzhung Kingdom. It remains one of the areas with the highest concentration of Zhangzhung ruins in Northern Tibet, serving as a key to unlocking the mysteries of Zhangzhung culture and an important site for studying Bon culture.China · Nyima

This time, I booked a small group tour of 8 people from Shigatse to the Mount Everest base camp, and the overall experience was excellent. The driver drove very steadily, and the schedule was reasonable. He reminded everyone along the way to be aware of altitude sickness, dress warmly, and prioritize safety, and was patient and helpful when needed. Although Mount Everest was constantly shrouded in clouds due to weather conditions, preventing us from seeing the entire peak, which was a bit of a disappointment, natural weather is uncontrollable, and the itinerary itself was fine. The vehicle was clean, and with a small group, it wasn't too crowded. The high-altitude valleys, mountain passes, and Everest Base Camp along the way were all very unique, and the driver was responsible, without rushing us or forcing us to spend money. Overall, the service exceeded my expectations, making it a safe and smooth trip to Mount Everest, and I highly recommend it.

Driver Danba Dunzhu is extremely responsible, especially punctual, and has excellent driving skills. He carefully reminds drivers of all safety precautions every time the car is restarted. He is the best driver I've encountered so far in my trip to Tibet.

Peiku Tso is located at the border of Gyirong County and Nyalam County in Shigatse City, Tibet, right next to National Highway 219, with an altitude of about 4,590 meters. It is the largest inland lake in Shigatse, with clear blue waters facing the majestic snow-capped mountains. The wooden boardwalk is a landmark and popular spot for taking photos.

Historically, the Jilong Valley, located at the southern foot of the Himalayas and adjacent to Nepal, was an important passage from the Central Plains to Nepal, India and other South Asian countries. In the early 7th century, an ancient Tang-Tibetan Road was built here, passing through Qinghai, Tibet, Nepal and India. The section leading out of Tibet was called the "Tibetan-Nepalan Ancient Road". The China-Nepal railway currently under construction also passes through Jilong to Kathmandu.

西藏对我好像从来是遥不可及的,哪怕一个人走了大半个中国,脑海里无数次想过西藏,但终究没有一个人踏足那里的勇气,可能是因为气候 可能是因为海拔,亦或是曾经读过的很多关于那里的作品带来的神秘、圣洁的滤镜,总怕自己乱七八糟的心境去玷污了心中那块干净、充满信仰的土地。但是终究敌不过向往,对雪山的向往,对无数干净的高山湖泊的向往,对栖息在那片土地无数自由生灵的向往,选了一个不算旺季的10月中旬,踏足了那块旷野。海拔不断升高,3000 4000 5000,还好高反似乎宽恕了我,我的身体一切正常,没有出现任何不适,我将这当做了这片土地对我最盛大的欢迎和接纳。阳光下的布达拉宫,白墙折射着太阳的金光,洒在周围每一个信众的身上,空气里氤氲着焚香的气息,这里确实是一个不缺信仰的地方。在加吾拉山口,顶着海拔5245米的大风,我挂上了写着我美好心愿的经幡。纵使没有信仰的人,到了这里也难免心生崇敬,想要渴求一些简单朴实的愿望。那会逐渐消失于世的卡若拉冰川,我庆幸我记住了它的模样。

Thanks to the aid built by Shanghai many years ago, National Highway 318 from Shanghai People's Square to the Mount Everest National Park sign is about 5,000 kilometers, so there is a monument and a small square here, as well as a festive red corridor. Many self-driving tourists always meet here as a meeting or departure place, so it is an important landmark.

Shishapangma Peak in the middle of the Himalayas is 8,027 meters above sea level. There are 14 peaks in the world that are over 8,000 meters, and Shishapangma Peak ranks 14th. It is the only peak over 8,000 meters that is completely in China. Pegu Co is not well-known among the many coves in Tibet, but it is favored by tourists because it is located next to Shishapangma Peak. Finally, take a look at the rape flowers in Tibet, which are also unique.

Living in the nearby Wenbunan Village, the scenery of Cuo is quite good. The surrounding facilities are also gradually being built up. You can come here to have fun. You can also take pictures of the stars at night. It is still okay.
