Some people say that "if you don't go to Tibet, it's not enough to talk about travel." Tibet has always been full of mystery in my heart, and it is also a place I really want to visit. However, I am often discouraged because of high anticipation. In the spring of 2021, we finally mustered up the courage to enter Tibet. , chose the Nyingchi route, which is not so easy to reverse, but we still reversed, the whole trip was tiring and hard, you ask me, is it worth it? Maybe I don't have the courage to go to Tibet again, but I will definitely tell you that Tibet is a place to visit once in a lifetime.

Hotel recommendation:
The accommodation conditions on the Sichuan-Tibet line are limited and cannot be compared with those in the city. Here we will not introduce our hotels one by one, but just talk about three recommended hotels and one hotel that has stepped on thunder.
Milin Grand Canyon Qiyuan Tribe
https://hotels.ctrip.com/hotels/detail?hotelid=15548320&cityid=21368
Because Suosong Village is very tight in the Taohuaji Hotel, we booked a hotel in Tunbai Village, which is close to Suosong Village and about 10 minutes by car. Compared with Suosong Village, the accommodation here is not so tight. The balcony viewing room we booked is facing Namjagbarwa Peak and has an excellent location. The hotel is in the Grand Canyon Scenic Area, you need to buy Grand Canyon tickets, and you don't need to buy sightseeing tickets for self-driving.
The service of the hotel is very good, the owner is very enthusiastic, and will introduce the surrounding places with good scenery and the best viewing spots. The hygiene of the room is fairly clean, and the toiletries in the bathroom also look very clean. In March and April, the temperature difference between morning and evening in Tibet is large, and the room has heating and electric blankets.
Disadvantages: 1. There are no disposable slippers, it is recommended to bring your own slippers, the slippers do not look very clean
2. The hotel has a restaurant, but the taste is average. The hotel is very close to Suosong Village. It is recommended to go to Suosong Village to eat. The Sichuan cuisine we ordered is not very delicious.
3. The water in the shower is not easy to adjust. It is either very hot or very cold. The water temperature is not easy to adjust. I almost caught a cold on the first night.
Recommendation: four stars
Generally speaking, in the Grand Canyon, the hotel's facilities and services are not bad.
We found a place worth recommending during our play - Milin Gongzundum Farm
Because I didn't stay here, I don't comment on the sanitation and hotel facilities. You can read the reviews by yourself. I recommend this place mainly because of its geographical location. This hotel is about 1 km away from the hotel we stayed in. On the way from Tunbai Village to Suosong Village, when we are about to go up the mountain, there is a small road on the side of the road. The hotel is just beside the Yarlung Zangbo River. The environment is very good. If the weather is good, you can take pictures of the reflection of Namjagbarwa Peak here.
Nyingchi Lulang Pearl River International Hotel
https://hotels.ctrip.com/hotels/detail?hotelid=16983307&cityid=108
The environment is good and the sanitation is good. It is rare to find such a hotel on National Highway 318. The snow-capped mountain viewing room has a good view. Free fruit is provided for check-in, and supper is provided at night. The breakfast is quite rich, but there are few service staff and many people at breakfast, and the table is very tidy slow.
Recommendation: five stars
Bomi Phuntsok Kangsang Resort
https://hotels.ctrip.com/hotels/detail?hotelid=8919020&cityid=21979
Phuntsok Kangsang has always had a good reputation in Tibet. Bomi had the best night of sleep during his trip to Tibet. The room was clean, the shampoo and shower gel were very good, and he also prepared body lotion. Free fruit, yogurt and snacks upon check-in, and wrote a welcome card very thoughtfully.
Recommendation: five stars
Finally, let’s talk about the hotel that stepped on thunder—Basu Mingjing Hotel
This is the hotel I stayed at in Ranwu Lake. The place where I planted grass in Ranwu Lake was the Basu Ranwu International Self-Driving Real Estate Camping Camp. Because of an article by a blogger, I planted grass in Ranwu Lake, so I was determined. The idea of going to Tibet this time. Why did I choose Basu Mingjing Hotel when I finally booked a hotel, because this hotel needs oxygen supply. I read a lot of reviews, all of which were good reviews of the oxygen supply room, and finally I chose this place. The cleanliness of the hotel is just like the reviews said, it is really hard to describe, but the hotel does not have oxygen supply, saying that the equipment is broken, it is really a very difficult night. The room does not even provide mineral water, and the sanitation is not good enough.
Come thousands of miles, only for the spring in the snowy plateau
Gala Peach Blossom Village: Main Venue of Nyingchi Peach Blossom Festival
Tickets: 30 yuan
The original plan was not to arrange the Gala Peach Blossom Village. As the main venue of the Peach Blossom Festival, there must be a lot of people coming, and we don't want to be crowded. However, we had already made our itinerary early. The weather in Nyingchi was cold this year, and the flowering period was delayed. Gala Peach Blossom Village was the first to open. When we arrived, this was the best place in Nyingchi, so we temporarily arranged this itinerary. We arrived at Linzhi's first stop. There is still one week before the Peach Blossom Festival, and there are not many tourists
Wild peach trees are paired with rapeseed flowers, very beautiful
Before leaving, my mother asked me why I went to Tibet because I can see peach blossoms everywhere, because although peach blossoms can be seen everywhere, only in Tibet can I see peach blossoms with snow-capped mountains as the background. Suosong Village is undoubtedly the best place to see snow-capped mountains and peach blossoms. nice place.
Suosong Village is located in the Grand Canyon Scenic Area. To enter, you need to buy tickets at the visitor center. If you stay in it, you can enter by car, otherwise you need to buy a sightseeing ticket.
The scenery of the Niyang River on the way into the Grand Canyon
It is highly recommended that you stay in Suosong Village or the nearby Tunbai Village for one night. The tour group’s one-day tour is very busy. They only stop at the viewing platform to take pictures, and cannot go deep into those beautiful and fun places. We stayed here for two days. God, thinking that there is a greater chance of seeing Namjagbarwa Peak. Facts have proved that we are lucky, although it has been rainy these two days, fortunately, Namjagbarwa Peak is exposed from time to time.
In the fields of Suosong Village, the peach blossoms are burning and the barley is long
Overlooking the Grand Canyon on the viewing platform, the peach blossoms are not fully open yet, and the stars are dotted. It should be more beautiful here during the blooming period.
The Guru Temple in Tunbai Village is the place where the Lotus Master retreated. The stairs are not long, and it is still difficult to climb up on the plateau. Looking at Namjagbarwa Peak from another angle
At the highest point of Suosong Village, you can take pictures of snow-capped mountains, canyons and peach blossoms without aerial photography
Going forward from Suosong Village, Dalin Village is also worth visiting
A random road, a peach blossom is a good shot
The third stop of flower appreciation - Bomi Peach Blossom Valley
Bomi Taohuagou starts from Runa Village and stretches for dozens of kilometers to Qingduo Town and Yuxu Township. The peach trees here are all hundreds of years old, scattered in the forest, and the road passes through them. It is snow mountain.
After two days of rain in the Grand Canyon, the sunny day finally ushered in Taohuagou in Bomi, and I was in a good mood
The peach trees and large areas of highland barley in Qingduo Town set off each other, and the villages are scattered among them
Every shot is a landscape, no one can get enough
Gang Township opposite Taohuagou was discovered by accident, and there are almost no people
It started to rain again on the day I left Taohuagou, leaving the last memory of Taohuagou on the viewing platform
Going to you through mountains and rivers, tired and happy
The altitude of the Ranwu Lake area is about 4,200 meters. Although we have stayed in Nyingchi for a few days and climbed the Sejila Mountain all the way, we still have a high altitude and have a splitting headache. It may be because the temperature has dropped sharply in the past two days. I am a little annoyed. Come here, but when I saw Ranwu Lake, all this was relieved. March is indeed the most beautiful time for Ranwu Lake
The weather is very good today, the lake is calm and transparent
Laigu Glacier is the best and widest glacier known in Tibet. Because the ice surface has started to melt in March, you can only watch it from a distance, and you cannot walk into the glacier.
With a glance of ten thousand years, Yamdrok Yongcuo
Today is the most tiring day of driving, because in addition to the various mountain roads to go to Yanghu Lake, the gravel road around Yanghu Lake is even more suspicious of life, and the bones feel like they are falling apart.
The blue of Yanghu Lake is not a translucent blue, but a very rich blue
The wind in Yanghu Lake is so strong that people will be blown into the lake
After leaving the viewing platform, Huanhu Road until Rituo Temple is the essence of Yanghu Lake. Walking around the lake at will is a scenery that cannot be seen from the viewing platform.
The Rito Temple is fenced off and there is no chance to enter
Herd of sheep outside the daycare temple
On the way close to the Rituo Temple, we will meet the wild animal Tibetan Gazelle, and watch us pass by curiously.
This caring butt is really enchanting walking around
Tibet also has idyllic scenery, come to a hot stone pot chicken in the small town of Lulang
Lulang Town is a tourist town built on National Highway 318. The town itself does not have much fun, but the surrounding forests and villages are also beautiful.
Because Lulang Town is newly built, compared with other places on National Highway 318, the food and accommodation conditions are better. It is very suitable for a day's rest during the journey. If you are in a hurry, you can ignore it.
Finally, end this trip with a set of Potala Palace
It is said that Tibet is a place full of faith. It is obviously a tiring trip, but I do not regret taking a trip. Maybe I don't have the courage to go to Tibet again. After all, I still have lingering fears when I recall Gao Fan's sufferings, but I still have to say that Tibet is worth it.
