Nyingchi-Kadinggou Waterfall-Gongbo Ethnic Village-Lhasa
Today you will depart from Nyingchi by car, heading north along the Lhasa-Nyingchi Expressway, Tibet's "most beautiful sky road." Along the way, you will visit Kating Gully. 【Kating Gully】is a superb scenic spot in Nyingchi's forest canyons. On both sides of the canyon, towering cliffs and steep precipices rise and fall in layered ridges, with fantastic peaks, bizarre rocks, and ancient towering trees. Wildflowers fill the valley with fragrance, and the natural oxygen bar offers fresh air. A waterfall with a drop of over 200 meters plunges from the sky, an awe-inspiring sight. On the cliffs, natural formations resemble a great Buddha, a goddess, Guanyin, a Dharma protector, Tathagata Buddha, lamas chanting scriptures, a divine turtle calling to the sky, a divine eagle offering treasure, butter lamps, and the Tibetan "Six-Character Mantra" Buddhist characters, among other wonders. The most magical of all is a great Buddha naturally formed in the waterfall's water that appears and disappears—hence the name Kating Gully Heavenly Buddha Waterfall.
After visiting Kating Gully, you will visit 【Gongbo Characteristic Village】. Tibetan-style houses are scattered in picturesque disorder, and the small Tibetan courtyards are filled with the fragrance of flowers. The village, together with the green mountains and clear waters, blue sky and white clouds, forms a delightful watercolor painting. Here you can listen to Tibetan family stories, enjoy Tibetan dance, view houses with distinctive Tibetan features, and experience the local customs. Afterwards, you will return to the "City of Sunlight," Lhasa.
