Why is the life expectancy of the tallest village in the world less than 50 years?

This village is at the foot of Mengdagangri Snow Mountain in the south of the mountain, and in Tuiwa Village near Pumoyong Cuo Lake. The altitude here is about 5 kilometers, so the oxygen content is very low. The oxygen content in this village is only half that of Chinese mainland, so the average life expectancy there is less than 50 years. When people exercise, they will consume a lot of oxygen to provide vitality for cells and deliver blood to the heart, but the low oxygen content in the air will affect people's lives.

The scenery here is quiet and beautiful. The local government has repeatedly called on villagers to move to other low-altitude areas, but they like it here and are unwilling to leave the land.

Villages rely on animal husbandry to generate income, but the temperature in Tibet is low, with an average annual temperature of MINUS five degrees Celsius. In winter, sheep eat grass and go to the island in the middle of the lake, so that they can eat tender grass for a month. But the sheep need to be driven across the river, and the sheep need to cross the ice to reach the island in the middle of the lake. However, it is not easy to reach the small island in the middle of the lake. In order to prevent sheep from falling on the ice, clever villagers will use cow dung ash to pave a gray road between the lake shore and the island, so that the sheep can arrive safely. At this time of the year, shepherds lead thousands of sheep to the middle of the lake neatly, which has become a beautiful scenery in winter.

In addition to animal husbandry and textile industry, everyone in the village has a loom, and their own hand-woven blankets can also subsidize their lives. Life in the village is simple and simple. Although life is not easy, people love this land.

Every year from July to September, many people come to Tibet to feel the charm here. Pumoyongcuo is located in Shannan area. Do you need to hold it? Border card? Before going in.
