Basong Lake Scenic Area is located in Gongbo'gyamda County, Nyingchi City, Tibet Autonomous Region. The lake surface of Basong Lake is a narrow crescent shape, with an altitude of 3480 meters. It is the first 5A-level natural scenic spot in Tibet. There is a small island in the center of Basong Lake. Enjoying the scenery on the island is very pleasant. You can also take a boat from the pier to the lake center scenic area and swim in this 'green gem.' On the shore of Cuogao Lake, there is a primitive and quaint Jeba Village, which maintains the traditional village layout, residential building style, and cultural customs of the Gongbo Tibetan people. Most of the houses are built with stone and wood, which is very distinctive. In recent years, Basong Lake Scenic Area has held sports competitions such as mountain bike racing from time to time. Participants ride around the lake, not only experiencing the thrill of sports competitions but also enjoying the gifts of nature. The beautiful scenery along the way, such as pine flowers, streams, snow-capped mountains, and ancient villages, is pleasing to the eye. Or take a free and romantic flight over Basong Lake to get a panoramic view of this 'green gem' and overlook the fairyland-like scenery. If you are tired, stay in the bubble house by Basong Lake. At night, fall asleep while watching the starry sky of Basong Lake in the bubble house. Having a fantastic dream in the 'crystal ball' can also fulfill your childhood fairy tale fantasy.

In China, you can always trust the location selection of Songzan Hotel. Thanks to Songzan, I came to Basumtso in Nyingchi to participate in the opening ceremony of Songzan's Mountain Life Season. From Songzan Linsi to Wunongding, from Namjagbarwa to Basumtso, every location of Songzan is amazing. If it weren't for Songzan, I might miss this beautiful and niche place, Basumtso. Snow mountains, meadows, forests, lakes, sailboats... My first impression of Basumtso is 'Oh my god, this is Switzerland', it turns out that we also have such beautiful places in our country. · The harder it is to reach, the better the scenery, I know. The reason why I have not started my Tibet trip is because I always feel that Tibet is far and hard. But Songzan·Basumtso broke my prejudice against Tibet. After landing at Nyingchi Airport, I took the Mercedes-Benz business car picked up by the hotel, and arrived at the hotel lobby in two hours. Stepping into this plateau resort, lying in the room drinking coffee and looking at the snow-capped mountains and lakes, it's comfortable and not hard at all. · 122 rooms, swimming pool, SPA, bar, gym, cafe, Ancestor Bird Lounge... There are such rich facilities; sailing, hiking, horse riding, paddle boarding, motorcycling, ancient village tours... There are also such rich experiences. This is indeed a resort hotel that you can stay for a few days without getting tired, and it is also the largest resort hotel of Songzan so far. · The theme of the opening of Songzan Basumtso Linka this time 'GO GREEN' really touched me. The snow-capped mountains and lakes are very beautiful, but also very fragile. The Songzan Basumtso Linka built by the lake is a green and low-carbon hotel, which is also a rare eco-resort hotel in China. Perhaps Songzan is leading the domestic hotel and homestay industry in a new direction. The hotel and travel industry, which is gifted by the natural beauty, may start to give back to nature in the mountains and rivers, and protect nature. · I will definitely come back to see the different sceneries of Basumtso. This is really a beautiful, beautiful, beautiful place!

"Basum Tso" also known as Cuogao Lake🌊, in Tibetan means "green water". The lake is at an altitude of 3480 meters, located 36 kilometers from Bahe Town, Gongbujiangda County, in the upper reaches of the Bahe River in the high mountain valley, it is a famous sacred lake and holy land of the Red Sect. In August 2017, it became the first natural scenic 5A tourist area in Tibet. 🎡 Attractions: 1⃣ Island in the heart of Basum Tso A small island in the middle of Basum Tso, connected to the land by a floating bridge. Tourists can walk up via this bridge or take a small boat. Legend has it that the island is a "hollow island", i.e., it is not connected to the lake bottom and floats on the lake. Although it is just a legend, it makes people feel the magic of nature. 2⃣ Cuozong Gongba Temple Located on the island in the lake, it is a famous Red Sect Nyingma temple in Tibet, built in the late Tang Dynasty, with a history of more than 1500 years. There is a peach and pine tree in the south of the temple. In spring, the peach blossoms and green pines contrast each other, which is very beautiful. 3⃣ Jieba Village At the foot of the scenic area of Basum Tso, there is an ancient village hidden -- Jieba Village, located deep in the scenic area in Cuogao Township. Only when you explore deep into the scenic area, you will find a paradise at the end of the lake. 4⃣ Xinco (very beautiful, worth a visit)✨ Xinco is an extended scenic spot inside Basum Tso, very beautiful, suitable for hiking, 6 kilometers, about 3 hours. Xinco is quite far from Basum Tso, about 20~30 kilometers, and the road conditions are poor. 🎈 Admission: 115 yuan/person, sightseeing car 50 yuan/person 🎈 Opening hours of the scenic area: 3.15-10.15, 8:30--20:30 10.16-next year 3.14, 9:30-19:30 🚘 Transportation: Self-driving or group tour You can also take a train from Lhasa to Nyingchi, and then take a bus from Nyingchi City Passenger Transport Center to Basum Tso, about 120 kilometers, ticket price 62 yuan, journey 2-2.5 hours 🏠 Food and accommodation: Basum Tso has developed into a relatively mature tourist resort in recent years, with convenient food and accommodation. The prices in the restaurants in the scenic area are relatively high, and the sanitary conditions are general 🌟 Best viewing season: Spring, Autumn. In spring, Basum Tso will present a charming blue, as if it were the blue tears of Nyenchen Tanglha. If you also like blue, why not go and see Basum Tso in spring! Every autumn, when the air is crisp and clear, the forest is dyed and the lake water is pure and clear.

Basum Tso is a famous sacred lake and holy site of the Red Sect, and it is the first and currently the only natural scenic national 5A-level tourist attraction in Tibet. Forests, snow-capped mountains, villages, lakes, islands, temples. Basum Tso almost encapsulates all types of southeastern Tibetan scenery and culture. Strolling around Basum Tso, under the blue sky and white clouds, with the snow mountains and clear waters, it feels as if time could stand still. Exit the highway at Bahe Town, and a thirty-plus kilometer road takes you to the scenic area. Stop the car twice on the way; once for the eye-catching yellow of the rapeseed flowers blooming in the green valley, winding upwards, which irresistibly makes you ask the driver to stop. Another stop is initiated by the driver; the roaring waterfalls from the rolling dam, thundering and stirring up a pile of snow and wind, rolling forward. Standing on the shore, looking down at the rapids from a close distance, one feels dizzy and hastily retreats. Private cars are not allowed inside the scenic area; you can only take the scenic area bus. The first stop is to the island in the heart of the lake, which is the core of Basum Tso. There is a small local temple on the island. Although it's small, it's said to be a holy temple of the sect, and what's unique is a 'peach embracing pine' tree, where a pine tree grows in the middle of a peach tree. The trees on the island are lush, including a thousand-year-old evergreen oak, majestic like a dragon. The moss on the branches indicates the fresh and moist air here. You can also feed fish on the floating bridge, using barley cake made by local residents, which costs five yuan each and is not expensive. It just feels like these fish have been fed by tourists and are not interested in what we throw. You can also take a bus to a small hilltop viewing platform in Jieba Village, where the view of the lake under the snow mountains is still very beautiful. In the lush forest, there is such a large expanse of lake water, reflecting the snow mountains, truly experiencing what the 'Jiangnan of Tibet' feels like. There are also boat services on the lake. There is also a small village called Tsogao Village by Basum Tso, 'Tsogao' in Tibetan means 'head of the lake', which is a mysterious ancient Tibetan village hidden at the end of the sacred lake. After arriving at Basum Tso, continue walking along the lakeside road, passing through tall and straight pine forests with a faint scent of pine, and in about 40 minutes, you will reach Tsogao Village. Tsogao Village, built by the lake, with scattered houses, the lake like a belt, and behind it, is the Jieqing Nalagabu Snow Mountain with an altitude of over 6300 meters. The misty clouds spread down from the surrounding mountains, and Tsogao Village is thus serenely nestled between the snow-capped mountains and green waters, a perfect secluded paradise by the mountains and water!

My enlightenment on the road of travel is my mother. From childhood to adulthood, she took me around the country, taking me to see the vast grasslands of Inner Mongolia, the vast desert of Gansu, the ethnic customs of Xinjiang, the primitive forests of Yunnan, the Confucian culture of Qilu, the soft rain of the south of the Yangtze River, the surging of the Yellow River and the Yangtze River... Before I was 18, my mother took me on a journey of thousands of miles, seeing the great rivers and mountains of the motherland, forming my broad world geography view. Just as I came of age, I had accumulated a lot of travel experience and sparked more and more curiosity about the world. I started traveling alone from university. At the age of 19, I went to Tibet alone, and later traveled to 30 countries around the world. The more I walked alone, the more I saw, but suddenly realized that my parents were getting older and I hadn't traveled with my mother for a long time. Even though I have traveled most of the provinces and cities in the country, the snow-capped plateau is still a place my mother has never set foot in and has always wanted to come. Since my first solo travel destination was Tibet, seven years later, I chose Tibet again to start the first 'I take my mother to see the world' journey. Two years ago in the spring, I went to Shangri-La, Songzanlin Ka next to Songzanlin Temple, is the best Tibetan hotel in my mind. The high-altitude geographical environment of Tibet may be a tough journey for my mother, so I thought of 'Tibet Jiangnan' Linzhi, where the altitude is relatively low, the trees are lush, the oxygen is sufficient, surrounded by snow-capped mountains, very suitable as the first destination into Tibet. The journey into Tibet was not smooth, from Chongqing to Linzhi, experienced six hours of delay, six hours of flight and return, we delayed a whole day's time, after a hard journey, finally arrived at Basong Co. When we arrived, we saw a rainbow reflected in the valley, at this time the fatigue of the journey, the discomfort of high anti, all disappeared with the rainbow bridge in the Tibetan heart symbolizing 'connecting the sky and the earth, spreading peace and joy'. The hotel we chose to stay in is the Basong Co Lin Ka of Songzan, which has been prepared for eight years and officially opened in September this year. It is currently the largest scale, the first green low-carbon hotel under the Songzan banner. Located on the south bank of Basong Co, it rests in the arm of the holy lake and the divine bay. When the weather is fine, the snow-capped mountains of Jieqing Nalagabu in the north are shining brightly. As soon as you enter the hotel, your heart will calm down. The design of the hotel reflects the Tibetan tribute to the local Tibetan cultural history and the extension of the natural scenery of Basong Co, truly making us feel 'living in nature', and happily, my mother immediately liked it here. The simple and kind Tibetan housekeeper handed over a cup of ginger tea and delicious barley cookies, welcoming our arrival, drinking the hot ginger tea, brought back my memories of meeting Songzan two years ago, for a moment there was a feeling of 'home'. The moment I opened the window of the room, the fresh air, the chirping of birds in my ears, the distant cowbells on the lawn floating in the air, the person by the window also became a person in the painting.
