Qudeng Nima, known as the end of the world by National Geographic It's no exaggeration to say that this is the best glacier in China! Above the glacier, the ice layer slowly spreads in a circular pattern like tree rings As if nature used time as a carving knife To carefully carve on this endless white canvas Recording the passage of time and change In front of the glacier lies a blue moraine lake as clear as a mirror In winter, the lake freezes into crystal-clear blue ice 🧊 Creating the most primitive and wild beauty on earth~ 📍Location｜Qudeng Nima Glacier, Gangba, Tibet 🎫Tickets｜🆓 🚗Transport｜Self-drive 🧭Altitude｜5,300m [Hiking Guide] 👉🏻Navigate to Qudeng Nima Glacier, Gangba.

🌟 This self-drive tour of Tibet ends in the high-altitude southern region of Tibet. Finally, I can share my thoughts on self-driving in Tibet in winter. This route follows the border. On some days, you need to show your border pass four times. A border pass and ID card are essential, so be sure to carry them with you. 🌟 This route takes you around some of the most beautiful snow-capped mountains. In my opinion, the most beautiful is Kula Kangri, with its snow-capped mountains and lakes. You need to make an effort to see the beautiful scenery. The most stunning is the frozen Puma Yumco Lake, and the most beautiful lakes are the uninhabited Chongba Yumco Lake and Zongcuo Lake. 🌟 In terms of accommodation, the conditions in Tibet have improved a lot compared to four or five years ago. Even the two worst places on this trip, Luozha County and Gangba County, have underfloor heating. Hotels above 4,000 m with oxygen generators are much better. In Lhasa, I recommend the Pingcuo Kangtsang Oxygen-Rich Hotel. Self-drive travelers love this hotel, and the conditions are great. 🌟 Prices in Lhasa are not cheaper than in Shanghai, and busy restaurants are not necessarily good. It's all down to luck. However, there are plenty of chain milk tea, coffee, and restaurants, which is a big improvement. 🌟 10-Day Tibet Tour Itinerary Day 1: Fly from Shanghai to Lhasa via Chengdu. The altitude is a little high at 3,600 m. Check in to the Pingcuo Kangtsang Oxygen-Rich Hotel in Lhasa. The view from this self-drive hotel is also highly recommended. Day 2: Visit the Potala Palace in Lhasa. The Potala Palace is built on a mountain and is magnificent. The main building consists of the White Palace and the Red Palace. The White Palace is the winter palace of the Dalai Lamas and the center of political and religious power. The Red Palace is a place for religious activities and the tombs of the Dalai Lamas. The palace houses countless Buddha statues, scriptures, and precious cultural relics. After visiting the Potala Palace, go straight to Yaowang Mountain and bring a 50 yuan note. Yaowang Mountain is opposite the Red Mountain, where the Potala Palace is located. It is a great place to take photos of the Potala Palace and is the location of the image on the back of the 50 yuan note. Day 3: Lhasa—Yamdrok Lake—Puma Yumco Lake—Luozha County, altitude 3,800 m. Check in to the Luozha Longba Manor Hotel. Yamdrok Lake is 4,441 m above sea level and is one of the most famous lakes in Tibet.

Luozha County is located on the southern slope of the Himalayas, with an average altitude of 3,870 m. Day 4: Luozha County—Cuoyu Village—Baimalin Lake Hike—Kangma County, altitude 4,300 m. Check in to the Kangma Yuhuang Oxygen-Rich Hotel, which is close to the county and has convenient transportation.

The hike from Cuoyu Village is about 12 km, with an altitude of about 4,500 m. You need to cross meadows, climb hills, and traverse cliffs. Day 5: Kangma County—Chongba Yumco Lake—Duoqingcuo Lake—Zhuomulari—Dui Na San Cuo Lake—Qudeng Nima—Gangba County, altitude 4,600 m. Check in to the Gangba Plateau Oxygen-Rich Hotel.

Check in to the Shigatse Hilton Hotel. Peiku Lake is the largest inland lake in the Mount Everest Reserve. The lake is clear and blue, surrounded by mountains on three sides, and the terrain is open. There are wild horses, Tibetan wild donkeys, Tibetan antelopes, and other wild animals on the shore of the lake. Mount Everest Castle is a military fortress built by the Qing army more than 200 years ago. The castle is a great place to see Mount Everest, and you can see the Himalayas from the castle.

This temple is not only a holy place of Tibetan Buddhism but also a treasure of Tibetan culture. Ramoche Temple is located about 500 m north of Barkhor Street in Lhasa. It was built in the mid-7th century and houses an 8-year-old statue of Sakyamuni, which is extremely sacred and precious. Day 10: Fly from Lhasa to Shanghai. Finally, the 10-day trip is over, and I can go home and have a good sleep on the plains.

Qudeng Nima Glacier at the End of the World Qudeng Nima Glacier is located in Gangba County, Shigatse City, Tibet. In winter, the snow and ice form a vast blue glacier. The glacier is located at an altitude of over 5,200 meters. The ice lake and mountains are known as the glacier at the end of the world. It is located in the border area between India and Nepal, and is composed of more than 50 glaciers, including Yuhu Lake and Tonghu Lake, presenting a stunning polar landscape. In winter, Qudeng Nima is covered with snow, stretching endlessly, and the perennial glaciers are magnificent. Duration: About 5 hours Tickets: Free Note: Keep warm when hiking on the plateau and prepare oxygen tanks

Qudeng Nima Glacier's full name is "Dorje Qudeng Nima," which means "Diamond Sun Tower." It is said that when a stupa from India passed by this place, the sun happened to shine on it, giving it this poetic name. Qudeng Nima Glacier is located in Gamba County, Shigatse, Tibet, and is the water source of "Tibetan Sacred Water" mineral water. Chinese National Geography magazine describes Qudeng Nima Glacier as "the end of the world." The natural wonders here make it a mysterious third pole. Scenery: 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 📍Location | Qudeng Nima Glacier, Gamba, Tibet 🎫Tickets | Free (border pass required) 🚗Transport | Self-drive 🧭Altitude | 5,300 m 🏞️[Travel Route] 🔹Qudeng Nima Glacier is located in Gamba County, Shigatse, Tibet. Its full name is "Qudeng Nima Dorje," meaning "Diamond Sun Tower." There are three blue glacier routes, among which Glacier 58 near the China-India border is closed. The other two routes are open, namely the Western Sacred Lake and the Water Source, also known as Copper Lake and Jade Lake. 🔹Navigate to Qudeng Nima Glacier (about 1 hour's drive from Gamba County). After passing the border station, check the border pass and ID card (driving license and drone will be withheld) to pass (must exit before 18:00). After entering, the fork on the left leads to Jade Lake, and the right leads to Copper Lake. 🔹Drive to the end of the road in the direction of Copper Lake and start hiking. It takes about 2 km to reach the lake, and then continue along the lake for about 3 km to the glacier. The first half of the journey has a small climb, while the second half has almost no climb. The entire trip takes about 4 hours. 💁🏻‍♂️[Practical Information] 🔹It is recommended to enter in the morning for more time. In the afternoon, the light is not good, clouds are likely to form, which is not good for photography, and the wind is strong, the temperature drops, and altitude sickness is likely. 🔹For high-altitude hiking, be sure to keep warm and avoid altitude sickness. Evaluate your physical condition before going. 🔹If you go to the ice tower forest, be sure to bring crampons and trekking poles. There is a risk of collapse and falling in the ice tower forest, so be sure to pay attention to your safety. 🔹Decomposition is very slow in the plateau area, so be sure to leave no trace and take all your trash with you. ⚠️[Special Tips] Drones are prohibited. Be sure to bring a border pass.

Why do I like visiting Tibet in winter so much? As a snow mountain and glacier enthusiast, Tibet in winter satisfies all my fantasies about stunning landscapes. In winter, the mountains of Tibet are covered with snow. Whether you look down from the plane or open the window, you can enjoy the continuous white mountains. The lakes of the glaciers freeze and the water level drops, allowing you to get close to the glaciers. 📍Qudeng Nima Glacier Copper Lake, Gamba County, Shigatse, Tibet. Located on the China-India border, it is blocked by a huge object in front of it, which is used as the boundary between the two countries and is also described as the "end of the world." ❄️It's very cold before the sun shines in the morning! I felt like my limbs were going to freeze off, it was more than ten degrees below zero, and I came back to life after the sun shone. ✔️Qudeng Nima Glacier Hiking Guide: 🧭Navigate to "Qudeng Nima Glacier", you will pass by a marked road sign and a rainbow road, then register at the post, show your ID card and border pass, because it is the border, you need to leave one person's ID card. ▶️The starting point of the hike is the parking point at the end of the drive. It takes 2 km from the parking point to the Copper Lake. At an altitude of 5,000+, it takes about 1 hour to hike 2 km. ➡️It is about 2 km from the lake to the front of the glacier along the right side of the lake. At an altitude of 5,300, it takes about 2 hours to hike. ☑️So it takes about 3 hours one way. We walked and took photos along the way, and it took about 6 hours to go back and forth. (We set off from the starting point of the hike at nearly 10 am and returned to the parking area at 4 pm) 💡Other Tips 1️⃣Stay in Gamba County the night before. The county is at an altitude of 4,700 meters, which is very high. Try to find a room with oxygen supply. 2️⃣Warm clothing and hats are essential, and photographers are advised to prepare gloves. 3️⃣The starting point of the hike is also at a high altitude, so it is recommended to make all preparations, including psychological preparation. If you are afraid of altitude sickness, it is recommended to carry an oxygen tank with you! Or do what you can, after all, high-altitude hiking is risky. 4️⃣You can climb up the glacier along the right side of the mountain in front of the glacier, but I personally do not recommend it. One is that the slope of the mountain is too steep and covered with snow, and the other is that the glacier roars from time to time, and the structure is changing at any time, which is very dangerous❗️

When the barley fields are covered with golden waves, Ali enters the most charming season of the year. The autumn in Ali can fulfill all your expectations for beautiful scenery. The towering snow-capped mountains are no longer mysterious, and the world is clear and far-reaching. Golden meadows, gentle sunsets, free-running wild animals, and increasingly deep blue holy lakes together create beautiful autumn scrolls.

About altitude and altitude sickness: 80% of the Ali route is above 4,000 meters above sea level, so pay attention to altitude sickness. You can go to Lhasa to adapt before going, avoid strenuous exercise, maintain a good mentality, and carry glucose, oxygen, etc. The beautiful scenery not to be missed includes: • Gang Rinpoche: the sacred mountain in the hearts of many pilgrims. • Qudeng Nima: Known as the "end of the world", it is the ultimate glacier in Tibet. • Tree of the Earth: A natural tree spectacle formed by flowing water. • Guge Dynasty: A mysterious dynasty connected to the sky • Zada Earth Forest: The earth forest is scattered and has thousands of postures. • Zhuomulaji: The seventh peak of the Himalayas. • Ama Zhimi: A little-known snow-capped mountain. • Dark Night Park: One of the four major dark night parks in the world. • Wenbunan Village: A secluded village next to Dangreyong Co. • Yicuozaicuo: A series of blue lakes on the Ali line, each of which is amazing.

📍G219 Kashgar to Lhasa Some say that highways are for connecting and encountering beautiful scenery. This must be an ideal scenic avenue that connects snow-capped mountains, glaciers, and lakes. As the mountain road extends upwards and the altitude gradually increases, the slight altitude sickness brings dizziness, just like us who are "slightly drunk", and we sigh that this road is not easy. At this moment, go to experience, go deep, this is the meaning of travel. Snowflakes fell on the car window, and outside the car was a vast expanse of whiteness. Driving in it, I felt extremely comfortable. This is probably on the road. People are exploring themselves throughout their lives. In this vast world, I seem to see infinite life. I like it here, I belong here. Those animals lie comfortably in the meadow. If possible, I want to communicate with them. Will they feel happy?

Gangba County is located in the eastern part of Shigatse City, Tibet Autonomous Region, China, on the southern slope of the eastern section of the Himalayas. Gangba County is situated at the junction of China, Nepal, and India, bordered by Yadong County to the east, Nyalam County to the south, Tingri County to the west, and Dingjie County to the north. It serves as a natural border between China and countries such as India, Nepal, Bhutan, and Pakistan. The Himalayas stretch from Nanga Parbat (elevation 8125 meters) in Kashmir in the west to Namcha Barwa (elevation 7782 meters) at the great bend of the Yarlung Tsangpo River in the east. The scenery along Highway 219 is picturesque, featuring the most magnificent snow-capped mountain wonders, traversing the roof of the world.

I once had the opportunity to visit the Qudennima Glacier in Gangba County, Tibet, at an altitude of more than 5,000 meters. It was an unforgettable journey. At first glance, the scenery of lakes and mountains is breathtaking. The lake at high altitude is surrounded by magnificent mountains. The Qudennima Glacier in Gamba County is located in the Himalayas and is one of the wonders of nature. If you plan to go there, be sure to make adequate preparations in advance, because the high altitude and changeable weather conditions here require you to be in good physical and mental condition. At the same time, we must respect the local environment and comply with relevant regulations and guidelines to ensure that this natural wonder can be appreciated by future generations. 🏔🏔🏔🏔🏔 When you stand in front of the Qudennima Glacier, you will be deeply shocked by the magnificent scenery, and you will also be deeply moved by the power of nature. 🏔Gamba County, Shigatse, Tibet 📍Qudennima Glacier 📐Above 5,200 meters above sea level 🥶Going time: early June 2023, high altitude + glacier + strong wind (very cold, please keep warm🧤🧣) 💌Before going to the glacier, make sure you are in good physical condition.

Glacier No. 58, also known as Qudennima Glacier, has an altitude of 5,180 meters. (In fact, Glacier 58 is only a small part of the Qudennima Glacier.) Because it is located on Boundary Marker No. 58 at the junction of China and India, it is called Glacier No. 58 by hikers. It has been listed as a restricted area and tourists are not allowed to enter. This glacier is located in Gangba County, Shigatse Prefecture, Tibet, more than 40 kilometers away from the county seat. However, due to its low popularity, few outsiders know about it, and even map navigation will lead to the wrong location. We originally planned to stay in a temple near the glacier, but the thin air made us feel very uncomfortable, so we went down to the county town that night and climbed up again early the next morning. You can drive a car to a small ice lake, and then walk in. It takes about 20 minutes to reach the edge of the glacier, which is quite shocking. There is no one else but our team.

The Qu Deng Ni Ma Glacier has been rated by China National Geographic as 'The Glacier at the End of the World', with an altitude of 5200m, at least 3 hours round trip. PS The ice lake looks very close, but it is actually very far away. We walked for half an hour without seeing the end, and the sun was about to set, so we went back. 1️⃣ You will probably have to climb 2-3 peaks, depending on the route you choose. 2️⃣ The closer you get to the top, the stronger the wind, and it feels like you can't stand still. My clothing index: thermal base layer➕thin down jacket➕fleece-lined storm jacket➕thick down jacket, lower body 800g cotton pants➕fleece-lined wide-leg pants. 3️⃣ High-altitude hiking is different from plain hiking, don't rush, walk slowly, rest immediately when you feel a bit tired or panting, don't push yourself, bring convenient oxygen. 4️⃣ The ice surface is very slippery, it is recommended to wear anti-slip snow boots or ice claws.
