Photos of Dazong Lake

Dalzong Lake is about 3,100 meters above sea level, in the shape of irregular gourds and vines. The lakeside is surrounded by mountains on three sides. The lake is full of fish, the lakeside is overgrown with wild grasses, hundreds of flowers are in full bloom, the mountains are densely covered with forests, and hundreds of birds are clustered in the forest. The lake and mountains are intoxicating. Dalzong Lake is a sacred lake in the hearts of Tibetans. Every year on the fourth day of the fifth month of the lunar calendar, Tibetans from all over the world come here to make pilgrimages to plant arrows and pray for good luck. At this time, the whole mountain was filled with smoke, and the sound of conch shells resounded through the sky. The believers turn the prayer wheel with their hands, recite the scriptures, and circle the lake three times in a clockwise direction.
