Recommended route in northwest go on road trip

If you want to travel to Northwest Road, there are several routes to try. You can find what you want in the following ways. Of course, you can redesign the route according to your own preferences.

Gannan line

Route length: 12~ 15 days, about 1240 km.

When to go: June to August or early October.

Best landscape section: Gahai-Maqu section

Gannan is a secret place where the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau extends to Gansu, where primitive and rich landscapes are preserved. Temples, villages, grasslands, lakes, rivers, peaks and canyons have different postures but are perfectly integrated. When driving in Gannan, all you need to do is to measure the scenes that have appeared in your dreams with wheels.

1. Lanzhou

"The Yellow River is full of water and beef noodles are fragrant day and night" is probably the best comment here. Waterwheel Park, Zhongshan Railway Bridge, Baitashan Park and other large and small scenic spots and landmark buildings in Lanzhou are mostly concentrated in Binhe Road along the Yellow River. Unlike the bad traffic and chaotic crowds in the south of the city, when you get here, you can calm down and enjoy the "Lanzhou Bund".

2. Linxia

Linxia, also known as "Maijiajia", has many mosques and Gongbei on the street. Shuttling through this small town, you can clearly hear the "Bunk" sound of God calling believers from the mosque. The thick Hehuang culture and the rich characteristics of the western regions set off a different temperament here.

If you are interested in history and culture, the East Mansion and Linxia Hui Autonomous Prefecture Museum are your windows to understand the historical story of this city. Then, you can stroll in the depths of the buildings in Lane 13 of Eight Roads, feel the unique architectural style of Eight Roads and Hezhou, and look for traces of dusty years.

3. Xiahe

Xiahe is the first stop from Lanzhou to Gannan. The Labrang Temple on the Daxia River is like an ideal city, and dense Tibetan buildings occupy most of the land in the west of Xiahe County. Known as the "World Institute of Tibetan Studies", it has a complete teaching system of Tibetan Buddhism.

The other two temples in Xiahe are Jiao Hong Temple and Nvmiao Temple, which can be reached by walking northwest from the path of Wangfu Square for half an hour. If you have enough time, you can also go to Gangjia Township, 30 kilometers north of Xiahe River, where there are sacred places in the eyes of local people, namely the white stone cliff and the octagonal city with great design sense.

4. Sang Ke Grassland

Sankoh Grassland is very popular in road trip, especially in July and August, where wild flowers are everywhere, wide and quiet, and cattle, sheep and horses adorn it. This is already a scenic spot with relatively mature tourism development, but if you go deep into the grassland, you can still find the simple scene of low wind, low grass and low cattle and sheep.

The newly-built plank road and several viewing platforms can help you have a panoramic view of mountains, grasslands and wetlands. If you visit carefully, it may take half a day here; If you are in a hurry, stop at the observation deck on the roadside when you drive by, and you can also enjoy the beautiful scenery of the grassland.

5. Lu Qu

Luqu means "Taohe" in Tibetan. Taohe River and Bailong River originated in Luqu, nourishing large alpine meadows. In this Tibetan-dominated animal husbandry county, you can often see a large group of cattle and sheep occupying the driveway and walking slowly in the middle of the road. Most tourists from go on road trip will not live here, but it will be more convenient to visit the Stone Forest and Gahai from here.

6.gahai

Ga means "small", but Ga Hai is the largest freshwater lake in Gannan and an important wetland in the eastern part of Qinghai-Tibet Plateau. Known as the "Pearl of the Plateau". In late spring and early summer, flocks of white swans, gray geese and striped geese will fly from southern China and Southeast Asia. It is also one of the important breeding habitats of the national first-class protected animal black-necked crane (visible from April to early May).

At present, the north side of Gahai has been developed into a scenic spot. You can walk from the grassland to the lake along the stone road and wooden plank road. At the end of the plank road, there are two observation decks. When you climb it, you can overlook the mirror-blue lake and the snow peaks and green grass in the distance. In summer, wild flowers spread on the endless grassland, and flocks of birds on the lake rise and fall between the water surface and the meadow, showing an exceptionally pure landscape.

7.maqu

Many people come here because of the reputation of the first song of the Yellow River. If you want to see the beauty of the Yellow River, you might as well go to Kamu Road, Gongsaier, Awancang Township and board the observation deck, and you can see this basin-like grassland area centered on the confluence of Gongqu, Saierqu, Daojiqu and the Yellow River.

After leaving Awancang Township, you can continue to drive eastward along the Yellow River for about 70 kilometers to reach Qihama Township and Cairima Township. The scenery here is praised as "Amazon of China" by Yang Xianhui, the author of Gannan Chronicle. The winding river on the plateau is like a waltz, winding on the vast flat alpine meadow.

8. langmusi

It is another secret place in the northwest of langmusi, and it is called "Oriental Switzerland". Langmusi is not a temple, but actually refers to Langmusi Town, which is located at the junction of Sichuan and Gansu provinces. Bailong River, one of the three major rivers in Gannan, originated here, dividing the town into two parts, with Sichuan Province in the south and Gansu Province in the north.

What makes this place famous are two monasteries. There is a temple in Sichuan called Dacang Namogerdi Temple, which is one of the largest and most influential gelug sect monasteries in Aba, Sichuan. The back hill of the temple is the entrance to the Namo Grand Canyon, and some short walks are started from here. Another temple, located in Gansu Province, is called langmusi Gansu Temple (also known as Saichi Temple), which is one of the sub-temples in drepung monastery, Tibet and belongs to the Gelug Sect.

9. Tiebu Sika Deer Nature Reserve

When I came to Chonger Township, I entered the border of Tiebu Sika Deer Nature Reserve. With high mountains and deep valleys, relatively warm climate and lush forest vegetation, it is the only iron cloth sika deer (also known as Sichuan sika deer) habitat in the world. At present, there are more than 1000 deer in the reserve.

10. Zagana

Zhagana means "stone box" in Tibetan. Tibetan villages surrounded by the towering Rocky Mountains are arranged layer by layer along the highland barley terraces, surrounded by dense green forests. The stream at the foot of the mountain winds out of the rugged canyon, accompanied by rising fog from time to time, like a mysterious fairyland left on earth.

The four Tibetan villages in Shicheng are arranged from west to east and from high to low. Their names are Tiba, Dari, Yeri and Dongwa. Dongwa Village has Lasang Temple, which was built in the early Qing Dynasty. From here, you can explore the scenic spots deep in the Stone Forest, such as Xiantan, Xianhu, Hukou and Yixian Sky. The location of Yecun is suitable for shooting the sunrise, and the rock observation platform in the back hill has a good perspective overlooking Dongwa Village.

1. Mount Dharma

Desert Mountain is located at the end of the northeast mountain in ruoergai county, which belongs to the Qinling Mountains and extends westward into the county seat. Although there are few travelers to this mountain, it is a treasure trove of geomantic omen in the hearts of local people. There are seven famous living buddhas with surnames in Dharma village, and there are only more than 30 families on the mountain. During Tibetan festivals, a large number of believers go to the mountains to worship. On weekdays, this mountain village is like a paradise.

12. Consistent

Diebu was called "Diezhou" in ancient times, and it means "thumb" in Tibetan. Legend has it that this is where the Tibetan mountain god Nigandawa opened it with his thumb. Bailong River is located at the intersection of Minshan Mountain and Loess Plateau, running through the county from northwest to southeast.

Go east along provincial road S3 13, enter Niqian ditch, and go straight to the observation deck at the top of the mountain. On the observation deck, you can see the highest peak in Gannan-Cuomei Peak, with snow-capped peaks towering into the sky.

13. Mount Laga

In Tibetan, Laga means "the place that immortals like". You can drive from Panshan Road to the top of the mountain. On this section of Panshan Road, the altitude rises from 1400 meters to 2800 meters. With the fog coming from the mountains, the scenery of rolling waterfalls, quiet canyons, dense forests, wide grasslands, clear lakes and cascading Tibetan villages is constantly changing in front of your eyes.

14. Lazikou

Lazikou is the gateway to the border between China and Tibet, which means "steep valley". If you want to prove the precipitousness of Lazikou, you might as well cross the Liangpanshan Highway in iron ruler. The nearly 20-kilometer-long S-shaped Panshan Highway has 27 bends, but the beautiful scenery along the way is a reward for the brave.

because

Located at the intersection of the eastern edge of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau and the branches of Minshan Mountain and Qinling Mountain, the scenery of Guan 'egou will make you glad that you have been here. Nine canyons between high mountains are steep and deep, and the Gu Song on the edge of the cliff covers the sky, with many strange peaks and dense forests, and many waterfalls fly down from the cliff at the top of the mountain or halfway up the mountain. Sometimes you can see all the changes of the four seasons in one day.

16. Dayugou National Forest Park

Dagugou is the general name of Jiugou (Canyon). Cliffs stand around the ditch, with dense trees and crystal clear. In addition, the unique vegetation and climate form a unique landscape of "one mountain and four seasons, ten miles away", which attracts many local people in Gansu to come here for the summer, or to watch the colorful gradual changes of forests in late autumn.

After entering the scenic spot, you reach a fork in the road, and on the left is Jijiaogou. During the tour, you will cross five stone gates, go straight along the river, and arrive at Zagana Stone Forest. On the right hand side is Qibugou, which contains Tibetan farmhouse music and Qibu Temple.

7. Men

The county seat is located on the Taohe River, one of the three major water systems in southern Jiangxi. The Buddha statue of Shiba Inu on the south bank of Taohe River overlooks this small Tibetan-style county. Zhuoni is the Chinese transliteration of Tibetan "Juenai", which means two masson pine trees. It is worth mentioning that the Tibetan costumes here are also called "Jue Nai", which had a unique aristocratic style in the Ming and Qing Dynasties.

About half a kilometer northwest of the county seat, the Zen Temple on the mountain is the oldest Tibetan Buddhist temple in Gannan, more than 450 years earlier than Labrang Temple in Xiahe. Gongba Temple (more than 60 kilometers southwest of Yoni County) is surrounded by green hills and Cheba River, with a huge scale. It is worth driving there to meet its solemnity and tranquility.

Going north from the county seat, you will pass the rape observation deck and terraced landscape at an altitude of 2662 meters along the way. Colors and shapes are layered and intoxicating like a palette.

18. Lintan

Known as Zhou Tao in ancient times, it is located at the intersection of the Loess Plateau and the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau in southern Gansu. Yeliguan scenic spot and the ruins of Taoweicheng in the ancient Zhou Dynasty are famous. Ten thousand people tug of war on the fifteenth day of the first month, and the Zhou Taohua Song Festival in June of the lunar calendar is the carnival of Lintan people and the busiest time of the year.

Drive northwest along the provincial highway S306 to Hezuo, which is a beautiful road that is easily missed by road travelers. You will indulge in the vast Ren Mei Prairie and Wan Mao Prairie. Especially in summer, Huahai becomes the protagonist of grassland, and sometimes cattle and sheep cross the road, which is the essence of Gannan's self-driving road.

9. Cooperation

The word "cooperation" comes from the transliteration of the Tibetan word "Heicuo", which means "the place where Tibetan antelopes haunt". In ancient times, there was a dense forest where antelopes lived. I came here mainly to see the mirage and the Eight Buddha Pavilion. Located in the Hezuo Temple in Beishan, the Buddhist Pavilion is the only nine-story Buddhist Pavilion dedicated to the founders of various schools of Tibetan Buddhism in all Tibetan areas. Standing on the Buddha Pavilion, you can see the platform on the opposite hill, which is the sunbathing platform of Mao Mu Dafa. You see where there are prayer flags and houses on the right mountain, which is the celestial burial platform in the cooperation area.

If you come here in July and August, you can also visit the grassland in that week, 2 kilometers south of the city. Gannan Shambhala Tourism and Art Festival is held here every year. During the festival, you can watch folk performances such as Pot Dance and Equestrian, taste Tibetan snacks and experience the lively and rich atmosphere of ethnic festivals.

Beijiang great ring road

7~ 10 days, about 209 1 km.

When to go: June to August; September to early October

Best section: X852 county road leads to harmony.

This loop line, starting from Urumqi, basically covers the most wonderful scenic spots in northern Xinjiang. Kanas has the best scenery, and the ghost town of Cullen and the Grand Canyon of Erqis will also make you indulge in it. The afterglow of sunset in colorful cities will add another color to your journey.

Urumqi

What a wonderful life/creative plan

Urumqi is undoubtedly the heart of Xinjiang, and most people will choose to start their trip to Xinjiang from here. First, they will visit the X Museum.

Keno well site. 1, located in the south of Shengli Road, became the symbol of the birth of Karamay Oilfield and the origin of Xinjiang oil. Now the location of Keno well. 1 It is covered with a huge stainless steel sphere, and there is a nightlight at night. If you go to Karamay in August, don't miss the Karamay Water Festival held in early August every year. Jiuge Music Festival is a part of Songkran Festival. You can hear the original music works of local independent bands in Xinjiang, which usually lasts for 3-4 days.

3. Wuerhe World Ghost Town

Hundreds of millions of years ago, it was once a huge lake. After wind erosion and continuous polishing of flowing water, it has formed a unique sculptural Ya Dan landform. The total length of roads in the scenic spot is 9.8 kilometers, and there are not many bus stops. If you are healthy, you'd better visit on foot. Fans may also wish to look for the shooting spots of such blockbusters as Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon and Seven Swords Down the Tianshan Mountains.

4. Brzin

Most people will use Brzin as an outpost to enter Kanas. This town is both beautiful and comfortable. Whether it is a "European style" building or a flower carving on the street, it will give you a refreshing feeling.

Rainbow Beach is the highlight here. It has the ups and downs of Ya Dan landform. The scenic spot is located along the highway on the north bank of Irtysh River. Colorful Ya Dan paved a long plank road with many viewing platforms from different angles. Every day at sunset, the plank road will be crowded with people watching colorful rainbow beaches in the afterglow.

5. Jia

Jiayu, a mountain basin surrounded by spruce and larch, is regarded as the gateway of Kanas scenic spot. You can drive to the ticket office and buy a ticket to Kanas. Your car can only be parked here, but it's safe, and you can start your fantasy journey to your heart's content. It is about 29 kilometers from the Gadengyu ticket office to the Kanas transfer center at the terminal. You can only take the scenic shuttle bus (8: 00 ~19: 30; Round trip to 90 yuan; Stop at Wolong Bay, Shenxian Bay and Moon Bay). It takes 50~60 minutes for the shuttle bus to travel along the provincial highway S232.

6. Pseudonym (Japanese letters; Simplified from Chinese characters)

Kanas between mountains and rivers is the most popular scenic spot in northern Xinjiang, and the rumor of "Lake Monster" made it famous at once. But just looking at the color of Kanas Lake is enough to shock you. The lake will show different colors such as blue, gray, emerald, dark green and milk green in different seasons. After entering September, golden birch leaves, apricot larch, red European Populus euphratica and evergreen pine and cypress are lined up, which is a fairy tale world. That's right.

Tourism can be divided into two parts: Kanas River and Kanas Lake. Wolong Bay, Moon Bay and Shenxian Bay belong to the three major landscapes of Kanas River. Get off at Wolong Bay and walk north along the plank road and the valley. You can visit three scenic spots. It's 5.4 kilometers one way, and the scenery along the way is good. Wolong Bay is the first stop after entering the scenic spot by shuttle bus from Jiadengyu. This section of the river is very wide with a beach in the middle.

Walk 2.2km north along the river from the plank road next to Wolong Bay to Moon Bay, where the bend of the river forms an S-shaped curve and falls into the valley like a crescent moon. There are two footprints on the shoal north of the bend, which are called "Genghis Khan Footprints" for short. From Moon Bay, walk 3.2 kilometers north along the plank road to the most famous Shenxian Bay, where you can see the morning fog. Shenxian Bay is the widest part of Kanas River (700 meters). Surrounded by clouds, mountains, lakes and trees, it gives people a feeling of being in a fairyland.

7.baihaba

If you need a border card to go to Baihaba, you can go to the scenic public security bureau (9:00~ 19:30) next to the tourist service center with your ID card. The fee 1 yuan can only be done on the day of the trip.

Baihaba village, known as "the first village in northwest China" (from May to 65438+ 10/5; 50 yuan is located in the northwest of China, and 1.5km away is the border between China and Kazakstan. In late autumn, the white leaves of Baha 'i, birch, larch and poplar gradually change from golden to red, which is a fairy-tale border town. Enjoy the beautiful sunset on the hillside behind the old village. There is a "golden avenue" behind the old village in autumn (in front of the Mongolian primary school). The birch trees on both sides of the street form a golden arcade with a thick "golden carpet" on the ground.

8. Harmony

Harmonious township is divided into harmonious village, harmonious village, harmonious new village and harmonious mountain village. Shangcun and Xiacun are the core areas, and they are also the concentrated areas for eating and living. The locals collectively refer to the old village. I'm afraid I'll be disappointed to find a harmonious scenic spot on purpose, but the village is full of scenic spots. The highest mountain in the north of Harmonious Village is Meili Peak. There is a village above, with only a dozen Kazakh families. In July, wild flowers are everywhere.

There is a viewing platform on the hillside on the north bank of Harmony River, which can shoot Harmony Valley and morning fog. There are bridges in Xiacun and Xincun, and there is a walking plank road leading to the observation deck. The harmonious morning scene is beautiful and cold. When it's time to go out, the sun rises around 7: 30 and the morning fog clears at 8: 00. It takes at most half an hour to walk from the old village to the observation deck, but if you want a good shooting position, you have to arrive ahead of time.

9. Cocotohai Town

The history of Tuohai Town is not long. After the discovery of mineral resources in the 20th century, the first residents began to move in, and now it has evolved into a tourist town. The streets of the town are full of precious mineral shops, and aquamarine and tourmaline are local characteristics. Drive along Y235 township road to the east of Cocotohai Town for 5 kilometers, and you will arrive at the Erqis Grand Canyon. You need to take a shuttle bus to enter the scenic spot. The terminal is Shenzhong Mountain, and you will enter the canyon 17 km.

The Grand Canyon is more than 70 kilometers long, with granite peaks facing each other along the river. The shape of Shenzhong Mountain is like a huge clock, and its surface is steep and smooth. There is a plank road opposite the mountainside observation deck, which is a good angle to shoot Shen Chong.

10. Colorful cities

Caiwu Bay generally refers to a large hilly area near G2 16 National Highway. Caiwu, located in the east of Junggar Basin, is the core of Caiwu Bay. It has a large number of colored hills of different sizes, mainly crimson, layered with gold, gray and brown. Colorful Bay's fantastic scenery has attracted many photographers, and film and television works such as "Su Wu Mu Yang" have also been filmed here.

1 1.

Ancient sea hot springs from Cai Wu to Cai Wu Bay. On the right side of the road, is the scenery of Yamakaji, a ochre mountain composed of sintered rocks, colorful in the morning and evening. The ancient sea hot spring in Wucaiwan is located in Gurbantunggut Desert. It is said that it is 770 million years of ancient sea sedimentary water from deep underground, and the outlet temperature is as high as 75℃. Hot springs are divided into one big pool and four small pools. It's pleasant to soak in the water at night, watch the stars and enjoy the snowflakes falling on the water in winter.

Tangfan Railway

Route length: 7- 10 days, about 1873 km.

When to go: May to October.

Best section: Yushu to Luwuqi

Starting from Xining, after crossing the boundary mountain (Sun Moon Mountain) between Datang and Tubo, we began to enter Tibetan areas. The theme of the first half is the Yellow River. Go to Longyangxia Reservoir, where you will feel vast, and then go to the "source of the Yellow River" thousands of miles away. Then repair it in Yushu for a day or two. After going south, Nang Qian and Lu Wuqi were the highlights of the second half of the journey. There are not only amazing scenery here, but also Tibetan customs that are rarely disturbed by outsiders.

1. Huangyuan

From Xining, you can choose G06 12 West Highway with less traffic to Huangyuan. Huangyuan is a prosperous town, which has been the throat of Han people entering Tibet since ancient times. You can stop by Tuanjia ancient city in the county. This is a newly renovated Chinese-style "ancient city", named after the establishment of Tuanjiatang in Qing Dynasty.

2. Sun Moon Mountain

Sun Moon Mountain is of great geographical significance. It used to be the boundary mountain between Datang and Tubo, and also the dividing line between monsoon region and non-monsoon region, farming civilization and nomadic civilization, Qinghai-Tibet Plateau and Loess Plateau. Sun Moon Mountain Scenic Area is an artificial scenic spot based on Princess Wencheng's marriage to Tibet. Sun Moon Pass is 3520 meters above sea level, and the Sun Moon Pavilion is located on both sides of the pass.

3.*** Republic of China

Hexian County is the seat of the state capital of Hainan Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture, only 2850 meters above sea level. It is wise to rest here for one night and let your body gradually adapt to the high altitude environment.

Mount Amaqing is one of the four sacred mountains of Tibetan Buddhism. The Diya Pass in Zhihai is 4600 meters above sea level, where you can see the majestic posture of Ma Qinggang, the main peak. Although the height of the main peak of 6282 meters is not prominent among the many peaks in the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, it is very natural to have an illusion about the height in front of you (you might even think it is more than 8000 meters high). The Maqinggang sky here presents a towering state with steep walls. Then we went to Huashixia, which used to be the most important transportation hub in Guoluo Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture. With the opening of Huajiu Expressway, its hub status has gradually weakened. If it's getting late here, you might as well have a rest.

5. Maidu Fish

Visit the source base of the Yellow River. Maduo is 4300 meters above sea level, with dry air and huge temperature difference between day and night. Tibetans living at lower altitudes will have altitude sickness here. It is recommended to go to Maduo to replenish water and not to do strenuous activities. You can go to the Lingxia Cultural Expo Park in the south street of the county seat. There are all kinds of statues and murals about King Gelsall in the park.

The scenic spot at the source of the Yellow River consists of Zhaling Lake, Eling Lake and Niutoupi. The observation deck of Erling Lake is built on a high cliff by the lake, overlooking from the commanding heights. When the weather is fine, the lake is dreamy blue with dazzling stars shining on it. Everything is like a dream.

Erin Lake is also a paradise for wildlife. Groups of Tibetan antelopes or Tibetan wild donkeys can often be seen here. Continue to reach Niutoubei. The monument to the headwaters of the Yellow River was built at the top of Tsowari Mountain at an altitude of 46 10 meters. Hu Yaobang and the 10th Panchen Lama wrote The Source of the Yellow River in both Chinese and Tibetan languages. When the weather is fine, you can also see the scenery of the two lakes.

6. Yushu

Yushu is 3700 meters above sea level. For travelers who have just come down from Maduo, this place is suitable as a place to rest and adjust. Let's go to Jiegu Temple at the top of Muma Mountain, which is not only Sakya Temple, but also a good place overlooking Yushu City. Another place where you can see the new look of the city is the contemporary mountain viewing platform.

Take G2 14 national highway from Yushu to the urban area and drive about 16 km to Princess Wencheng Temple. Crossing the basin, crossing the Galaga Pass into the landscape section, sometimes crossing the mountain peak, and sometimes going deep into the canyon, from the pass to Nangqian's 1 12km road, the scenery is picturesque, among which the scenery near Juelongga Canyon is the most beautiful. The scenery on the road is worth putting aside for more than half a day.

7. Be modest

For travelers who like the original ecology, nangqian is heaven. Nang Qian can hardly find a tour, and there is no place to collect tickets in the county. At present, the only tourist facilities are signboards on national highways.

When the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau meets the Hengduan Mountains, it becomes a magnificent scenery, and the Gaer Temple Grand Canyon is one of the best. The virgin forest in the canyon grows in green grass, and with the special light and shadow effect brought by the flowing fog, it seems that the dream is nothing more than that.

The Gaelic Temple is on the hillside deep in the canyon, and it looks like a "city of the sky" suspended in the air from a distance. If you want to experience the purest style, then the historic (Jiao) Temple will not let you down. Jiu Si Temple was once the home temple of Qian Qian, ranking first among the temples under the jurisdiction of Qian Qian. The huge Mani stone pile in front of the temple is the highlight of the whole temple. The corridor around Mani Stone Pile has experienced many vicissitudes, and Tibetans will come here all year round.

8. Grade five or seven

The most interesting thing about Roh Moo-hyun is the Temple of Roh Moo-hyun, which is 25 kilometers northwest of the county seat. The main hall, Chajema Hall, has a long-standing reputation in Tibet. There is a folk song in eastern Tibet: "Go to Lhasa first, then to Chajema;" Come to Chajima first, and then consider it in Lhasa. " Walking into the hall, exquisite Buddha statues and Thangka can be seen everywhere.

9. Ding Qing

Ding Qing, the hometown of Cordyceps sinensis, is not very attractive to tourists, but Zheluo Temple, the largest, earliest and most loyal temple in Tibet, is located in the east of the county seat, which is definitely worth visiting for half a day. Zongbao style

Naqu, an important town in northern Tibet, is 4525 meters above sea level. It is the highest, coldest and windiest "city" in Tibet. Walking in the street, you can't see a tree, which shows the harsh natural environment here. Naqu city exists more as a transportation hub in the travel plan, and the travel from Qinghai to Lhasa is inevitable.
