Sapu Mountain: A secret place in Tibet that is not recommended by tour guides. The starting point of the scenery is too high, which makes other scenic spots chicken ribs.

In Tibet, there is a snowy mountain, which has been hidden until 20 17. At that time, seeing its breathtaking scenery of lakes, snow peaks, red flowers and green grass, even a tourist who traveled around China couldn't name it.

Even a tour guide said that it is not recommended to go to Tibet for the first time. The starting point of the scenery is too high, which will lead to the feeling of "tasteless food" when enjoying other scenic spots in Tibet, thus losing the motivation to continue to travel around Tibet.

"Once the sea was difficult for water, it was always amber." Once you have been to the seaside, ordinary rivers are not enough.

There are countless snow-capped mountains in Tibet. The most famous ones are Nange Baba, which was rated as the top ten most beautiful snow-capped mountains in China by chinese national geography, Gangrinboqi, known as the center of the world, and Mount Everest, the highest peak in the world. These snow-capped mountains have long been known, such as Nangarbawa Peak, which was rated as the most beautiful snow-capped mountain in chinese national geography as early as 2005.

This snow-capped mountain, which was "released" on 20 17, is the local "King of Mountain Gods" and the highest peak of Nyainqentanglha Mountain in the east-Sapu Mountain. As soon as Sapu Mountain appeared in public view, it was welcomed by an endless stream of photographers, cyclists and donkey friends, and soon it had another name-Eden in the snow-capped mountains.

Location: Sapu Mountain is located in Puzonggou, Yang Xiu Township, Ruxian County, Naqu City, Tibet, about 900 kilometers away from Lhasa. The nearest national highway is G3 17, followed by G3 18.

Tourist landscape: Sapu Mountain is 6956 meters above sea level. Glaciers have been wild for thousands of years, and the peaks are covered with snow all year round. The lake turned into snowy water is ethereal and beautiful, and the glaciers around it are bizarre. In winter, the lake water condenses into blue ice crystals; In midsummer, the lake is as green as a mirror, reflecting the blue sky, white clouds, glaciers and snow peaks. The lake is full of flowers, and three or two yaks leisurely stroll on the waves of weeds.

Self-driving route in Lhasa: Depart from Lhasa and take the ring road. The specific four-day schedule is: Lhasa-Naqu-Sapu-Baqen-Lhasa.

Road conditions: With the increase of tourists, the original dirt road has been widened and hardened, and cars can also go to Sapu Shenshan camp. But there are two observation decks in Sapu Mountain, and cars can only reach the first observation deck; The second observation deck, with gun pits and wading sections, can only be reached by off-road vehicles for half an hour.

1, Sapu Lake Camp: 4,700 meters above sea level, with simple accommodation conditions, suitable for watching the starry sky and sunrise. This is a paradise for photographers and cinematographers, but it is necessary to resist altitude sickness of 4700 meters.

2. Baiga Township: 4,000 meters above sea level, with slightly better accommodation conditions. It's a one-way drive from Sapu Mountain Glacier 1 hour or more, but you can only miss the sunrise, sunset and starry sky of Sapu Mountain.

3. For example, the county seat is 4000 meters above sea level, and the accommodation conditions are good, but it is far from the scenic spots, and the round trip takes about 6 hours, which is suitable for tourists to punch in.
