Yaowang Mountain faces the Potala Palace across the road in Lhasa. The two hills were originally connected by low ridges but were later separated by road construction. The mountain is roughly "S" shaped, divided into east and west peaks, and is a hill in the Lhasa urban area known for its natural terrain and historical and cultural relics. It is not particularly tall and consists mainly of rocky terrain, mountain roads, trails, and historical sites. You can see natural environments with plateau characteristics on and around the mountain, which is closely connected to the Lhasa urban area. From the higher parts of the mountain, you can overlook the surrounding city view.

North Tibet Grassland has an average altitude of over 4,000m. The grassland stretches northward, reaching deep into the hinterland of northern Tibet. There are no gates or fences here. The Qinghai-Tibet Highway runs straight through the pasture, and you can step right into a scene featuring grassland, cattle, sheep, and snow-capped mountains all in one frame. In summer, the grass turns green, and herds of yaks and sheep are scattered across the gently rolling pastures, dotted with the black tents of herders. Sometimes you can even catch a glimpse of Tibetan gazelles darting across the grass tips. In the fall and winter, the grass turns yellow, presenting a different, vast, and boundless landscape.

To reach Namtso, take National Highway 109, you need to pass through the observation deck of Nyainqentanglha Mountain (4640 meters above sea level), which is a good place to watch the main peak of Nyainqentanglha Mountain (7111 meters above sea level). In fact, the "observation deck" is a temporary stop on the side of the road, a row of ordinary houses with canteens, toilets, and a small parking lot. Along the road, prayer flags fluttered in the wind; in the distance, the mountains were majestic and snow-capped. The blue sky, white clouds, snow-capped mountains, black and white yaks, and prayer flags dancing in the wind, all of which constitute a colorful picture.

Zongjiao Lukang Park is located behind the Potala Palace Mountain, also known as "Longwangtan Park". "The Temple of Lu". Lu Shen is the collective name of Tibetan Buddhism and Bon religion for the gods living in the ground and water. "Lu Shen" is often translated as "Dragon God" in Chinese, and is then misrepresented as the Dragon King called by the locals. Therefore, the lake in Zongjiao Lukang Park is called "Dragon King Pool" in Chinese. In 2006, the park was re-planned and renovated, and the park was divided into five scenic spots, including folk activities area, natural water area, Longtan scenic area, hydrophilic activity area and cultural activity area. There are gravel roads, stone tables and chairs, lawns and fountains in the park, and trees are planted extensively to make it an urban park. At present, Zongjiao Lukang Park has become a place for local citizens to do morning exercises and leisure every day, and it is also a place for turning prayers close to the Potala Palace.

Drak Yerpa is a Nyingma (Red Sect) monastery and one of the four major retreat sites. Founded in the 7th century, it has a 1,500-year history. It was one of the meditation temples built by the Tibetan King Songtsen Gampo for his beloved Princess Mangza Trichun. After several expansions, it formed the Drak Yerpa that is tightly embedded in the cliff crevices. A major feature is that the temples are built into caves, integrating caves and temples. Unlike the surrounding peaks, which have only a thin layer of turf on their surfaces, Drak Yerpa is full of natural spiritual energy. On the mountain, there are towering, lush green pines and cypresses, while below, there are trickling springs and babbling brooks. In spring and summer, wildflowers bloom and birds sing in chorus. The temples are nestled within the cliffs, creating a unique landscape. There are over a dozen existing caves, among which Songtsen Gampo's meditation cave was built earlier and is located on a cliff halfway up the mountain. The original cave contained niches, ancient murals, and a statue of Songtsen Gampo, though the statue has since been destroyed. Temples were built around the cave, and after multiple repairs and expansions, it became a famous large monastery. In the mid-8th century, King Trisong Detsen promoted Buddhism and invited people from India to spread the Dharma. Not far from the meditation cave, there was originally a bell room containing a bronze bell with two circular inscriptions. Judging from the style of the characters, it was an artifact from the Tibetan Empire period. The bell's current whereabouts are unknown. In the 11th century, the ancient Indian master Atisha wrote books and gave teachings here. His former residence and meditation cave are located here.

The photography team is a master of capturing light and shadow, using the blue sky and white clouds, golden roofs and white walls as the background, and cleverly using angles to freeze the beautiful moment when Tibetan clothing blends with Lhasa. When you wear Tibetan clothes and travel through every corner of the holy city, those ancient stories and pious souls seem to embrace you, as if you are on a pilgrimage.

The Ganden Monastery consists of more than 50 buildings, mainly including the Tsongkhapa Hall, the Tsongkhapa Dorm, the Yangbajian Sutra House, the Tsongkhapa Lingta Temple, Jiangzi Dratsang, Xiazi Dratsang and 23 Kang villages, 20 It consists of a rice village. Among the 23 Kang villages, each Kang has a scripture hall. Most of them are two-story buildings. They are built along the mountain, layer upon layer. From a distance, they occupy the entire half of the mountain. The scale is grand and spectacular. The main hall of Cuoqin (meaning Dajing Hall, namely Daxiong Hall) was built in 1409. There are 108 large columns, which can accommodate 3300 monks chanting sutras at the same time. The main offering in the hall is the future Buddha Jampa Buddha, and later offerings to Tsongkhapa and other gilded bronze Buddhas. There are five golden lions in the hall, named "Gandan Picking Red", which is the seat after Tsongkhapa founded the Yellow Sect. There is a very strange pillar in the main hall. It is a palm-thick distance from the ground. People who come to the Ganden Monastery to worship Buddha must touch the bottom of the pillar to pray for good luck. On the left side of the Cuoqin Hall is the Yangbajian Academy, which is four stories high. It is said that it cost 900 taels of silver to cast, and the pagoda is decorated with a large number of precious jewels, which is magnificent. The Ling Pagoda is covered with a yurt-like sandalwood tent with a curtain inside, and the top of the pagoda is covered with an umbrella, which is very beautiful. There are two major Zhacangs in Ganden Monastery, Xiazi Zhacang and Jiangzi Zhacang. Jiangzi Zhacang (meaning "North Summit Monastery") is the dormitory of Gandan Tribac's master and his daily retreat. Xiazi Dratsang (meaning "Dongding Monastery") was built by Tsongkhapa personally passed on to Sherpa Rinchen Gyaltsen. The murals and sculptures in the halls of Ganden Monastery are very exquisite, and there are many cultural relics and treasures in the temple. Among them, in 1757, Emperor Qianlong of the Qing Dynasty bestowed the temple with armors inlaid with gold and silver jewels, the armor in four languages of Han, Manchu, Mongolian and Tibetan, and the complete set of "Ganjur" in the Tibetan "Tripitaka" written by pure gold Khan. Buddhist scriptures, as well as many beautifully made silk "Thangkas", Tsongkhapa's seat and the meditation bed at his death. There are 24 thangkas gifted by Emperor Yongle of Ming Dynasty, and cushions of Gushi Khan, all of which are rare treasures. All this is enough to show the long history of Ganden Monastery and the lofty religious status. Twenty-four of the thangkas are displayed to the monks and believers every year for three weeks, and the annual "Gandan Embroidery Tang Festival" is also formed.

The northern Tibetan grassland is the largest natural grassland in Tibet, located between the Kunlun Mountains, the Tanggula Mountains and the Gangdise Mountains, with an average altitude of more than 4,500 meters. Yaks and herders' tents are scattered all over the place, forming a unique landscape. The biggest feature is its vastness and magnificence. It is not only a paradise for yaks and sheep, but also a fertile land of culture, where well-preserved nomadic culture can be seen.

The most distinctive feature of Zhayeba Temple is that it is built in a cave, and the cave and temple are integrated. It is said that this was one of the temples built by the Tubo King Songtsen Gampo for his beloved concubine Princess Mangsa Chizun. After an unknown period of time, it was expanded several times to form the Zhayeba Temple that is now tightly embedded in the cracks of the cliff. The most common thing in this temple is the caves for practice, which are said to be as many as 108. The monks in the temple said that these caves can treat joint diseases, but I don't know if it is true.

Ganden Monastery (also known as Ganden Monastery) was personally planned and built by Tsongkhapa, the founder of the Gelug Sect of Tibetan Buddhism, in 1409 (both Drepung Monastery and Sera Monastery were built by Tsongkhapa's disciples). It is also known as the mother temple or ancestral temple of the Yellow Sect. In the 1960s, a catastrophe razed Ganden Monastery to the ground. Local villagers successfully hid the statue of Tsongkhapa, which was the only cultural relic in Ganden Monastery that escaped the looting. The buildings seen now were newly built after 1980.

This is a great place to take photos of the Potala Palace and also the location for taking the background photo of the 50-yuan RMB ticket. The observation deck is high above the ground, with a wide field of vision. You can appreciate the magnificence of the Potala Palace up close, and overlook the beautiful scenery of Lhasa from afar. In the early morning and evening, many photography enthusiasts wait here to capture the beautiful moments of the Potala Palace in the changing light and shadow.
