Crossing mountains and rivers, seeing oneself

A vacation, escaping the sweaty summer, encountering the magnificent glaciers and lakes, where to go❓ Fingers slide to Tibet, no severe altitude sickness, no overcrowding, want extreme scenery, want a suitable temperature. Go to Naidong❗️ Go to Naidong❗️ Go to Naidong❗️ South of Tibet, the seat of Shannan city government, the city that Wuhan supports in Tibet. A 4-hour flight, an altitude of 3560 meters, the current highest temperature is 24℃, the lowest temperature is 13℃. Naidong District·Shannan Here is the 'Yarlung Zangbo Snow Mountain' which is said to be one of the nine divine mountains where the world was formed Here is the summer palace 'Yongbulakang' of Songtsen Gampo and Princess Wencheng Here is the 'Changzhu Monastery' with the world's only pearl Thangka Speaking of Naidong, compared to the popular Lhasa and Nyingchi, you might be a little unfamiliar. The habitable Yarlung Valley has given birth to Tibet's first barley field, the first Zanpu (the Tibetan title for 'king'), and the first palace in Tibet. A friend who has been supporting Naidong for many years told me that Naidong is actually quite similar to Wuhan, it is the river city of the Tibetan Plateau. 💕 The transportation here is convenient. The Shannan railway station in Naidong 🚆 is built in the shape of Yongbulakang. In 2021, with the opening of the Lalin Railway, this high-altitude train station has become a check-in spot for countless pilgrims. 🚧 The Fuxinghao C882🚞 enters the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, departing from Lhasa, passing through Shannan, heading to Nyingchi. From Shannan railway station to Lhasa, 1 hour and 4 minutes, hard seat 37 yuan. To Nyingchi 2 hours and 30 minutes, hard seat 92 yuan. A little-known fact, Lhasa Gonggar Airport is not in Lhasa, it's in Shannan, 97 kilometers away from Naidong, a 1-hour drive. Crossing mountains and rivers, seeing oneself, that's the meaning of travel. But all of these are not as important as setting off👀💪📸
