    "Basongcuo is really beautiful! Climb up the observation deck at sunset, the lake is like a blue mirror! Snow mountains, forests, lakes, and landscapes are very rich. Although the new measures hidden in the depths are difficult to reach, they are really great value!"

    "One of the three major holy lakes is beautiful, and there are several observation decks that can be photographed. So I don't understand why I need to charge tickets, this is a little less. You can take photos with lambs, Tibetan yak, etc. around the photo, this is good."

    "The scenery is beautiful and shocking. It is really four seasons a day, ten miles different days, but because of a movie, it blew up a close glacier and could not be restored. Leave a small regret. The fun is more general, and the price is still very high."
