318 Sichuan-Tibet Highway Basum Lake

🍁In Tibet, there is a kind of green called Basum Lake, deep, ethereal, and dreamy. It is the largest lake in Nyingchi, and the color of the lake changes with the seasons. It is emerald green and transparent, and is known as the "emerald" on the plateau. 🍁Basum Lake's heart island is a small island in the middle of the lake. The lake is crystal clear, and the surrounding snow-capped mountains are reflected in it. Fish swim back and forth in the lake. There is a small temple on the island with an area of less than 200 square meters, called "Cuozong Gongba Temple". It is a Nyingma temple with a history of more than 1,500 years. 🍁When you come to Basum Lake, you can go to the nearby Jieba Village and Cuogao Village. There is an observation deck here - Qiedala Observation Deck, where you can overlook the entire heart island and lake. 🍁It is recommended to stay in Jieba Village when you come to Basum Lake, and go hiking in Xincuo the next day. The scenery here is really beautiful!
