2025 Bome Travel Guide: Must-see attractions, popular food, hotels, transportation routes (updated in June)

Nyingchi Peach Blossom Valley | Enter the Pink Dreamland of the Snowy Region When the spring breeze of March sweeps across the Himalayas, the Peach Blossom Valley in Nyingchi, Tibet quietly awakens, turning the wilderness and glaciers into a gentle pink sea. At the foot of the snow-capped mountains, ancient wild peach trees bloom freely, creating the most poetic spring with the rugged plateau and the delicate peach blossoms—this place is not Jiangnan, but it surpasses Jiangnan. 🌸 Snowy Peach Blossom Land, the Romance of Heaven and Earth Three million wild peach trees stretch for dozens of miles, with branches like pink clouds intertwined with barley fields, Tibetan houses, and blue streams. Above is the snow-capped peak of Mount Namjagbarwa, and below is a fragrant path paved with fallen flowers. Prayer flags whisper in the wind, and yaks stroll leisurely. The stark and the gentle, the barren and the vibrant achieve a delicate balance at this moment, as if the gods have spilled their palette, gifting the purest romance to the world. 📸 The Wild Beauty Across Millennia The peach trees here need no artificial embellishment, with trunks as strong as dragons and branches growing wildly. Every frame captured is breathtaking: pink and white flower waves rushing towards the glaciers, horses treading on flower-strewn meadows, and the colorful attire of the Gongbu Tibetan girls shining against the peach blossoms. Every scene is cinematic, and every breath is filled with the cold fragrance of flowers. 🗓️ Best Time to View the Blossoms Mid-March to mid-April (adjusted slightly each year according to the climate), with morning mists creating a fairyland and the contrast of snow-capped mountains and peach blossoms appearing more intense under clear skies. 🚗 Travel Tips - Peach Blossom Valley is located in Gala Village, Bayi District, Nyingchi City, about 10 kilometers from the city center. It is recommended to hire a car or drive yourself. - The temperature difference between morning and evening is large, so bring a windproof jacket; drone photography can unlock a "peach blossom village surrounded by snow-capped mountains" perspective. - Combine with visits to Bomi Peach Blossom Valley and Suosong Village (best viewing point of Mount Namjagbarwa) for a multi-faceted experience of Tibetan spring. "In April, when flowers fade elsewhere, peach blossoms in Tibet begin to bloom." In Nyingchi, peach blossoms are not just decorations, but love letters from the earth to the sky. If you long for a piece of pure land away from the hustle and bustle, this is the closest spring to heaven.

Leaving Motuo, it took 4 arduous hours to cover 110 kilometers back to National Highway G318. Traveling along the soaring Parlung Tsangpo River, we were greeted by endless emerald waters and white sandy shores on both sides, with towering snow-capped peaks veiled in mist, lush forests exuding a warm and humid aura, and the winding, picturesque canyon scenery accompanying us all the way. Arriving at the Tongmai Grand Bridge, once known as the "Death Stretch" and the most treacherous section of the Sichuan-Tibet Highway, the perilous path has now been transformed into a smooth passage. Spanning the Parlung Tsangpo River, the old, new, and newest generations of bridges stand as witnesses to the historical evolution of this route, once dubbed the "Tongmai Graveyard." Passing through the typical alpine meadow of Lulang, flanked by dense forests of fir and pine that rise from low to high, the drifting mist and clouds create a scene as if meticulously arranged by human hands. The neatly aligned meadows, meandering streams, babbling springs, and the rustic fences and bridges characteristic of forested areas, along with the scattered Tibetan-style white-walled and red-roofed buildings, paint a serene and idyllic picture of mountain life. Standing at the Sergyila Mountain viewpoint, the best spot to admire the full grandeur of Mount Namcha Barwa, we offered silent prayers in hopes of catching a glimpse of this "Shy Goddess," reputed as China's most beautiful mountain, whose elusive peak is rarely seen by nine out of ten visitors. Mount Namcha Barwa owes its fame to its sharp, spear-like peak piercing the blue sky, the majestic triangular massif, and the perpetual snow that crowns its summit. Shrouded in mist and clouds, this "Shy Goddess" seldom reveals her true face, adding to her mystique and inspiring countless seekers to pursue her elusive beauty. The wait was long, and the ever-changing mountain weather kept the bashful goddess hidden behind the clouds. It seemed this journey would not grant us the privilege of her presence. With regret and reluctance, we departed, holding onto hope for a future encounter.

Yesterday, we left the Laigu Glacier and rejoined National Highway G318 in Ranwu Town via G559. Traveling through snow-capped mountains and pristine forests, we were accompanied by the roaring Parlung Tsangpo River, formed by the outflow of Ranwu Lake. The surging rapids, lush greenery, and blooming wildflowers created a breathtaking and refreshing landscape. We arrived in Bomi County to rest and prepare for our journey into Medog. In the early morning, awakened by birdsong, we opened the window to gaze at Bomi's dawn. Mist, like pure white hada scarves, draped over the distant mountain slopes, veiling the surrounding forests in a delicate haze. The misty Parlung Tsangpo River rushed through the town, blending with the clouds and snow-capped peaks, creating a scene reminiscent of an ink-wash painting—vivid and dreamlike. Strolling through the quiet town, we found few people, only the occasional hurried tourist. The entire city felt like a sleeping beauty, serene and peaceful. Taking deep breaths of the oxygen-rich fresh air, our travel-weary bodies and minds were completely rejuvenated and relaxed. At dusk in Bomi, the sun slowly sank, painting the sky in brilliant shades of orange and red. The shifting light cast a golden glow over the lush forests, while the snowy peaks were bathed in a crimson hue, contrasting starkly with the white snow—a truly magnificent sight.

🌸 Spring is the season when the earth warms up and all things revive. In Nyingchi, Lhasa, there's a place known as the "Peach Blossom Paradise" - the annual Nyingchi Peach Blossom Festival. Here, peach blossoms spread like an ocean, spring is in full bloom, creating a paradise for photographers and travelers. Let's unveil the mystery of the Nyingchi Peach Blossom Festival together! 【Introduction to the Nyingchi Peach Blossom Festival】 The Nyingchi Peach Blossom Festival usually takes place from late March to mid-April each year, lasting about a month. During this time, the entire Nyingchi region transforms into a pink ocean, with peach blossoms complementing the snow-capped mountains, forests, and rivers, creating beautiful scenic paintings. 【Best Flower Viewing Spots】 Bomi Peach Blossom Valley: Known as "China's most beautiful peach blossom valley," the scenery is spectacular when the peach blossoms are in full bloom. Suosong Village, Mainling County: Located in the Yarlung Zangbo Grand Canyon, the peach blossoms against the river and snow mountains create breathtaking views. Gala Village, Bayi District: The opening ceremony of the festival is usually held here, making it an excellent spot for flower viewing. 【Transportation Guide】 From Lhasa, you can choose to drive, take a long-distance bus, or join a tour group. Driving takes about 7-8 hours, and long-distance buses are also a good option, with tickets costing around 200 yuan. 【Flower Viewing Tips】 Early rising: Peach blossoms are most beautiful in the early morning when the sunlight is soft, making it the best time for photography. Outfit: It's recommended to wear colorful clothes to create a contrast with the peach blossoms for better photos. Sun protection: UV rays are strong on the plateau, so be sure to take sun protection measures. 【Photography Tips】 Use foreground: Using peach blossoms as the foreground can create photos with rich layers. Find angles: Try different angles to discover more surprises. Light utilization: Backlighting and side lighting can better showcase the texture and color of peach blossoms. 【Food Recommendations】 In Nyingchi, besides enjoying the flowers, you can also taste authentic Tibetan cuisine such as butter tea, yak meat, highland barley wine, and more. 【Accommodation Suggestions】 Nyingchi has hotels and homestays of various grades. It's recommended to book in advance, especially during the Peach Blossom Festival. 【Important Notes】 In plateau regions, conserve your energy and prevent altitude sickness. Respect local customs and protect the ecological environment by not littering. During the festival, there are many tourists, so pay attention to the safety of your personal belongings. A spring breeze over ten miles cannot compare to the blooming peach blossoms in Nyingchi. This spring, let's meet in Lhasa and attend this pink feast together to experience the unique charm of Tibet.

Highlight: Many people come here at sunset because you can see the sunset illuminating the golden mountain from this angle. (However, we didn't come here while staying at the Songtsam Linka Retreat, Bome, because the view is basically the same.) During the day, there are very few people, so you can enjoy the place all to yourself. However, be careful not to startle the yaks during activities. You can take super close-up photos of the snow-capped mountains and pastures with a 2x zoom on an iPhone and a 3x zoom on a Vivo phone. I love it. Navigation: Guxiang Lake Scenic Area. Low water level in winter and spring. Tickets: Free

When the south wind scatters the clouds, hundreds of thousands of wild peach blossoms creep past the snow line, their branches reaching towards the folds of the sacred mountains. Pink petals, like unfinished verses on prayer flags, fall into the snowmelt rivers, dyeing the reflections like the blush on a young girl's cheek. Yaks tread through the shallow grass, their hooves dusted with the damp fragrance of spring, while the snow-capped peaks still wear veils woven from moonlight, bowing to kiss this pink and white tide. In the early morning, before the barley wine has worn off, you'll hear the mountains call out the names of the peach blossoms with their glacial voices—April in Nyingchi is like a rouge pot overturned by the gods. In April, when peach blossoms intoxicate the spring breeze, Nyingchi awaits your arrival. 🎈Recommended Peach Blossom Viewing Spots in Nyingchi🎈 ✅Gala Peach Blossom Village: The main venue of the Nyingchi Peach Blossom Festival, where pink flower seas complement barley fields and Tibetan houses.

I have rehearsed the scenes of Tibet countless times in my mind, but what I actually saw was still different from what I imagined. In 2024, when I was 44 years old, I chose to quit my job and embarked on my unfinished dream at the age of 30. In 2025, I started a new travel journey. In this way, I brought my first team to the country closest to heaven in my dream - Tibet. Everything is just right. The hot sun created the beautiful Potala Palace and the layers of snow-capped mountains. Everything is just right. The fine spring snow created the beautiful Ranwu Lake before returning home. Or maybe the mood of 40+ is different. What I see and appreciate carefully is the best. #Snow Scenery #Tibet #Tibetan Linzhi

🌸Linzhi, a paradise hidden in the snowy plateau Today I want to share with you the treasure place I have fallen in love with recently - Linzhi! This place is simply the "Little Jiangnan" of Tibet, with both magnificent snow-capped mountains and romantic peach blossoms. It is so beautiful that you don't want to leave. Hurry up and take out your notebook to write down my super comprehensive travel guide to Nyingchi! Transportation When coming to Nyingchi, it is most convenient to take a direct flight. Nyingchi Milin Airport is near the city. After getting off the plane, the feeling of instantly stepping into the tranquil plateau from the bustling city is so addictive! If you take a train, the scenery along the way is also beautiful. The Qinghai-Tibet Railway goes through mountains and ridges, snow-capped mountains, grasslands, and lakes. It's like watching a super beautiful landscape movie. It just takes a little longer, so you can choose according to your preferences. Accommodation There are many accommodation options in Nyingchi, ranging from star-rated hotels to characteristic homestays. The homestay I stayed in this time was right next to the Niyang River. When I opened the window, I could see the river flowing quietly and the snow-capped mountains in the distance. Waking up in the morning, listening to the birds singing and smelling the flowers, this feeling was so healing! If you have enough budget, I recommend staying at the Linzhi Sheraton. It offers a five-star experience with great service. You can also soak in the hot springs in the room and look at the stars. It is simply too luxurious. Itinerary Day 1: Nyingchi City + Niyang River When you first arrive in Nyingchi, take a walk around the city to experience the customs and culture of the Tibetan people. Then we went to the Niyang River. This river is so beautiful. The water is emerald green, like a flowing emerald. The willow trees on the river bank sway in the wind, and there are many water birds playing. I sat by the river, looking at this picturesque scenery, and I felt healed. By the way, don’t forget to buy a cup of sweet tea by the Niyang River. It will be so comfortable to sit by the river, drink the sweet tea and bask in the sun. Day 2: Lulang Forest + Lulang Town. We got up early and set out for Lulang Forest. The scenery along the way was beautiful. When I arrived at the Lulang Forest Sea, the scenery really shocked me. There were large tracts of virgin forests, lush and green, and snow-capped mountains quietly guarding in the distance. It was as if I had walked into a fairy tale world. When in Lulang Forest Sea, you must take a walk in the forest, breathe the fresh air and feel the charm of nature. At noon, we went to Lulang Town, where the Lulang Stone Pot Chicken is very famous. It is stewed with local specialty chicken and Matsutake mushrooms. It tastes delicious and you will never forget it after eating it. Day 3: Bomi Peach Blossom Valley + Laigu Glacier Bomi's Peach Blossom Valley is really the most beautiful place in Nyingchi. Every March and April, when the peach blossoms are in full bloom, the whole mountain is covered with pink peach blossoms. When the breeze blows, the petals fall, as if you are in a fairyland. I walked through the peach blossom forest, and every photo was as beautiful as a wallpaper, without any filter. After seeing the peach blossoms, I went to Laigu Glacier. The magnificence of the glacier really shocked me. The huge glacier extended from the top of the mountain. The texture of the glacier was clearly visible. Standing at the foot of the glacier, I felt so small. Day 4: Mount Namjagbarwa Mount Namjagbarwa is the iconic attraction of Nyingchi and the fifteenth highest peak in the world. I had been looking forward to seeing its true appearance for several days in advance. That morning, I got up very early and arrived at the observation deck before sunrise. I waited and waited, and finally, the sun came out. The top of Mount Namjagbarwa was illuminated by the sunlight, shining with golden light. The beauty is really indescribable. I was so excited that I almost cried, and quickly picked up the camera to record this beautiful moment. Food The food in Nyingchi is also unique. In addition to the Lulang stone pot chicken mentioned above, there are also Tibetan noodles, barley cakes, and yogurt. Every bite is full of Tibetan flavor. I particularly like Tibetan noodles. The noodles are chewy and the soup is rich. It is a perfect match with some pickles. Photography In Nyingchi, any shot can be a blockbuster. When taking photos of peach blossoms, remember to wear light-colored clothes, which go perfectly with the pink peach blossoms; when taking photos of glaciers, use a wide-angle lens to capture the magnificence of the glaciers; when taking photos of Mount Nanga Bawa, be sure to go at sunrise or sunset, as the light is the most beautiful at that time.

#Mainland Travel Nyingchi is a famous tourist city in Tibet, China. Every day, thousands of tourists come here for sightseeing and vacation. This time I will introduce a travel guide to Nyingchi. Nyingchi Highlights: The Yarlung Zangbo Grand Canyon is one of the deepest canyons on Earth, with a variety of natural landscapes, fast-flowing rivers and spectacular scenery. Mount Namjagbarwa is the highest peak in the eastern part of the Himalayas. It is known as the "Father of Tibetan Mountains" and the "Peak of Shame". It is mysterious and a popular destination for adventure mountaineering. Basongcuo is a sacred lake of the Nyingma sect of Tibetan Buddhism. The lake water is clear and there are many beautiful sights around it. There are Zhaxi Island and Cozong Gongba Temple in the lake.

From May to June, the temperature rises and the vegetation grows lushly, with the Lulang forest sea filled with emerald green and blooming flowers. The rainy season from July to August is a good place to escape the heat. Mount Nanga Bawa is looming in the clouds, and the high oxygen content can alleviate altitude sickness. September to October is the golden season for hiking and photography as the autumn colors are brilliant.

#earthdayjourney We visited the stunning Ranwu Lake, where snow-capped mountains reflect perfectly on the turquoise water. It felt like time slowed down here. The area is still relatively untouched, and the community is making efforts to preserve its natural purity—plastic waste is discouraged, and tourism is kept at a sustainable pace. We walked along the shore, breathing in fresh alpine air and listening to birds echo through the valley. I would highly recommend this peaceful lake as a grounding Earth Day escape. 🏔️💙 📍 Ranwu Lake, Bomi County, Tibet Autonomous Region We explored Midui Glacier, one of the most accessible glaciers in Tibet. The walk to the glacier was like a journey through Earth’s story—lush forests, rushing rivers, and finally, a towering wall of ice. Local guides shared how climate change is slowly reshaping the glacier, and how sustainable practices like controlled access and eco-trails are helping reduce the human footprint. I would recommend this stop to anyone who wants to witness the raw beauty—and fragility—of our planet. 🧊🌱 📍 Midui Glacier, Bomi County, Tibet Autonomous Region We visited Peach Blossom Valley during the spring bloom, and the scenery was absolutely magical—pink blossoms stretched across the valley floor with snow peaks in the background. It was like walking through a living painting. What touched us was how the local farmers and ecotourism groups protect this beauty—no mass tourism, no heavy infrastructure, just simple, seasonal wonder. I would recommend visiting during Earth Day season to see how nature celebrates in full color. 🌸⛰️ 📍 Peach Blossom Valley, Bomi County, Tibet Autonomous Region

At seven o'clock in the morning, the mist had not yet dissipated. I stood on the hillside of Gala Taohua Village and watched the first ray of sunlight pierce through the clouds, gilding the entire valley. Before your eyes are overwhelming wild peach trees, their branches as strong as ink, but their flowers as delicate as mist. In the distance are snow-capped mountains, and nearby are green barley fields, as if God had overturned his palette. 🌸 2024.4.1 Live Broadcast The flowering period is in full swing: the low-altitude areas in the valley (such as Bayi District and Bomi) have entered their heyday, with petals piled up like powdery snow weighing down the branches; the high-altitude areas (such as Suosong Village) are still in bud, and are expected to last until mid-April. A secret place with few people: Avoid the main scenic area and walk to the back mountain of Tunbai Temple. You will come across an uninhabited peach forest at the corner. When the wind blows, the petals fall and only the prayer flags and bees are left dancing. Weather mystery: Huge temperature difference between day and night! Wear only light clothing for photos at noon and wrap yourself in a down jacket at sunset. It is recommended to wear an onion-style outfit + sunscreen + sunglasses (the ultraviolet rays on the plateau will punish anyone who is stubborn). 📸 Filming Guide 1. Magic of light and shadow: The light is the softest between 9-11 am, and the petals shot against the light appear as transparent as glass. 2. Tibetan elements: Find an old peach tree and frame it with the white pagoda, or capture the moment when an old man circumambulating the temple walks under the flowers, which will give you a full sense of story. 3. Be careful when flying drones: The air currents in the canyon are unpredictable. My little plane was almost blown into a "sky burial ceremony" (laughs). 🚗 Private route D1 Linzhi→Gala Village→Sejila Pass (viewing Nanga Bawa) D2 Bomi Taohuagou→Qinduo Qiangbalin Temple (the scene of monks sweeping fallen flowers is very beautiful) D3: Squat in Suosong Village to see the true face of "Shy Girl Peak" + stay overnight at a Tibetan home, drink butter tea and listen to the legend of peach blossoms Standing on the bank of the Yarlung Zangbo River, I suddenly understood what Tsangyang Gyatso said: "On this plateau where the Buddha's light shines, you are only three or two steps away from heaven." Ten Miles of Peach Blossoms is just the beginning. What is truly shocking is the magnificent tenderness that coexists between nature and faith in the last secret realm of mankind. ✨ Tips: The blooming period of plateau peach blossoms is short, so enjoy and cherish them.
