Tibet has always been the softest and most special pure land in my heart. It is full of special Tibetan cultural customs everywhere. Even the wind is warm and hospitable. It seems to say, my friend, welcome 's arrival
People often ask, what kind of place is Tibet? Why would you go to Tibet again? Why Tibet is a place that people yearn for?
Whenever I see or hear such a question, I will think for a while, thinking about how to express this soft and special feeling in my heart...
But seeing is better than hearing a hundred times, you just go and see it!
40 Glacier——Mysterious and Shocking Primitive Glacier
Speaking of glaciers, the first thing that comes to mind is the huge iceberg that sank the Titanic, but there is a difference between an iceberg and a glacier!
An iceberg is a piece of ice as big as a mountain. It floats in the sea because it has broken away from glaciers and ice shelves.
A glacier is the snow that has not melted in one year and will be squeezed into the next winter. Year after year, the snow will finally freeze and start to slowly move down the mountain. This is a glacier.
40 Glacier, also known as Tsogyal Glacier, is 5,300 meters above sea level and is located near the border between Langkazi County and Bhutan in the Shannan region of Tibet. It takes 3-4 hours to drive from Langkazi County to reach the 40 Glacier, but it is best to have a guide to take you forward. If you drive to the 40 Glacier without a guide, it is not recommended to go to the 40 Glacier, because you only rely on yourself and the online strategy. It is more difficult to find the entrance of the glacier, and after entering the glacier, you need to choose a safe area to do activities, so it is not recommended to go there by car, you must have a guide~
The 40 glacier is not as dangerous as the Khumbu Glacier on the south slope of Mount Everest, and it is not as badly damaged as the Karola Glacier. Among the many glaciers in the Tibetan area, it is inconspicuous, even small in scale, but the sparrow is small and has five internal organs. There are all kinds of ice lakes, ice tower forests, ice stalactites, ice lakes, ice crevasses, ice tongues and ice caves, etc., which can be seen at a glance.
When you reach the foot of the 40th glacier, you will be amazed that there is such a beautiful scenery in this world. For a while, you can't tell whether it is white marble or a huge glacier block. The glacier stands here in various poses. You can hardly imagine what kind of movement behind it squeezes and polishes it into what you see now.
At this moment, the geographical knowledge in your mind is almost zero~ the rest is only admiration and surprise. Such a beautiful scenery is the real world of ice and snow. You may feel in a trance that Elsa is a real Disney princess!
On the 40 glacier, while walking, you can still hear the sound of the glacier not breaking apart, crisp and heavy, as if it is using its way to slowly come to the historical origin of this glacier...but you can't tell it by hearing alone Where did it come from, so this is what I mentioned earlier. On the 40 glacier, you must have a guide who is familiar with this place to go with you. Safety is the most important purpose.
Travel Tips:
1. Do not drive there by yourself. There is no signal on the mobile phone, which is very dangerous, so you must have a familiar guide to go with you.
2. Before departure, you should look at your own physical condition. If you are suffering from severe hypoxia and discomfort, in order to avoid causing other more serious symptoms, please suspend the plan.
3. You can bring crampons or crampon shoes to prevent falls.
4. The temperature is low, remember to prepare enough warm babies.
5. Don't be curious! Don't walk around alone! Don't be dismissive in front of the ice crevasse! Don't underestimate nature! Some ice crevices look very small and narrow, but they are actually a bottomless abyss. Once they fall into it, there is no way to rescue them. So be sure to remember, don't walk around!
