The Geladandong Snow Mountain is the source of the Yangtze River and the main peak of the Tanggula Mountains. The natural landscape around the Geladandong Peak is unique and spectacular. In late autumn, the mountains and hills here are covered with silver. The various shapes of ice towers are simply a masterpiece of nature's magic and an incomparably beautiful art gallery.

The scenery along the way is really getting more and more beautiful. It is really a feeling that is too numerous to be seen. There seems to be no pollution in my eyes. It is all holy, with blue sky, white clouds, grasslands, cattle and sheep, and local architectural culture and human geography.

This time when I went to Suo County, I happened to catch the prayer ceremony held at the Nima Ling Monastery. I was so lucky! As soon as I arrived, I was surrounded by a lively and solemn atmosphere. The monks chanted in unison, with loud and penetrating voices. The believers in traditional costumes were full of piety, either closing their eyes to pray or turning prayer wheels. The exquisite thangkas, fluttering prayer flags, and the music of the ceremony touched my heart and made me feel the sacred charm of Tibetan Buddhism. It is definitely worth a visit!

Tibet's fault is the lake. The scenery is beautiful. It is indescribable. The beauty that photos cannot show must be seen with your own eyes.
