Pumoyu-wrong (Pumayu-wrong), located in the Tibet Autonomous Region, at the junction of Luoza County and Langkazi County in Shannan City, is a freshwater lake between the Himalayas, the highest elevation freshwater lake. Unlike the majesty of Namcuo, the beauty of Yanghu Lake, Puma Nicuo is beautiful, beautiful, primitive, and pure. The blue sky, the flowing white clouds, the snowy mountains in the distance, sitting by the lake will not want to leave.
If you come to Tibet in winter, Pumoyancuo is definitely the first choice for lakes. The blue ice here is unique, and it has a fight with the beauty of Laigu glacier. Bringing drone aerial photography, Zhang Zhang is a blockbuster.
Have you seen the "sea" on the plateau? Pumo Yancuo, 5010 meters above sea level, the original appearance of the earth. Pumo Yan is located in the Tibet Autonomous Region, at the junction of Luoza County and Langkazi County in the southern region of the mountain, and is a lagoon between the Himalayas.
In summer, Pumo - wrong is surrounded by greenery, huge lake surrounded by snowy mountains, picturesque scenery.
