Lhasa Railway Station-Shigatse-Gawula Pass-Mount Everest Base Camp-Basong Village
Today you need to take the earliest train from Lhasa to Shigatse in Tsang (Train C891, 8:20-10:42). After arriving in Shigatse, you will drive to the Shigatse Permit Service Center to apply for the border pass. After receiving the border pass, you will drive via Lhatse and Tingri to visit Mount Everest, with breathtaking scenery all along the way.
On the way to Mount Everest, you will also pass the 【Gyawula Pass】 at 5,210 meters, where you can see the spectacular sight of four snow mountains over 8,000 meters arranged in a row. From left to right, these four snow mountains are: Makalu (8,463 meters); Lhotse (8,516 meters); Mount Everest (8,848 meters); Cho Oyu (8,201 meters).
Afterward, you will continue to Everest Base Camp. 【Everest Base Camp】 is one of the best places to view and photograph Mount Everest. At dusk, as night gradually shrouds the mountains, only the summit of Mount Everest shines in the sunset like the goddess's golden crown in the sky, allowing you to enjoy the honor of standing atop the world and being supreme on earth. If the weather is clear, at night you can also enjoy the starry sky and Milky Way over Mount Everest.
