Motuo, the B-side of Tibet. See you in 2025.

Motuo, the B-side of Tibet. See you in 2025. When it comes to Tibet, the impression of high altitude, lack of oxygen, and cold and dry weather is deeply rooted in people's minds. However, Motuo in southeastern Tibet is the B-side of Tibet. When you step into Motuo, the first thing that strikes your senses is the warm and moist air. Unlike most parts of Tibet, which are cold and dry, Motuo seems to be blessed with a moisturizing spell by nature, with the air filled with water vapor and the humidity maintained at a comfortable level all year round. As you travel along the winding mountain roads, the lush greenery replaces the desolate wilderness. Tall banana trees stretch out their broad leaves; various vines intertwine with each other, blooming in a riot of colors, creating a vibrant tropical jungle scene. In Motuo, the average annual temperature is much higher than the average in Tibet, and even in the coldest winter months, there is rarely a bone-chilling cold, and the warmth of spring is prolonged here. The most surprising thing is the oxygen content. Thanks to the relatively low altitude and lush vegetation, the air in Motuo is full of life, and breathing is unimpeded, changing people's stereotype of Tibet as "oxygen-deficient". As you stroll around, you can enjoy the pleasure of breathing in the fresh air, and your physical and mental strength is awakened by the abundant oxygen, making your steps lighter.
