Shigatse is really a surprising city. Not only is it an important border city, but it is also an important stronghold of Tibetan Buddhism Gelug Sect, with many ancient temples, and the entire city is unexpectedly new. BUT for drivers, there are the strictest traffic rules in Tibet here, sisters who drive by themselves must remember to abide by the speed limit, otherwise a fine of ¥1200 + 6 points is inevitable. In fact, there are several ancient sites and temples in the surrounding counties and cities of Shigatse. However, we stayed in Shigatse city for two nights to prepare for the border defense certificate and supplies on the weekend. The most unexpected places we got are 1 the Tashilhunpo Monastery in the city, and 2 the Manla Reservoir, which is very photogenic and beautiful. Karola Glacier: The most famous glacier near Shigatse. At an altitude of 5,000 meters, it was once the filming location of the movie Red River Valley. The advantage is a glacier that can be reached by car, but the ice surface is actually relatively small, mainly white glaciers and bald mountains, with not many highlights. The peak season ticket is ¥ 50, and the off-season is free. It is said that if you do not stop and just drive by, you can actually not pay the ticket. Manla Reservoir: I didn't expect this unremarkable reservoir to be the most beautiful place we felt from Nyingchi to Shigatse. The real Tiffany blue, and the winter water surface is half frozen and half flowing, which is very beautiful. You can step on the blue ice on the lake, we played by the water for most of the day, and the aerial photography can capture the layered lake surface, which is very beautiful. There is also a prayer flag mountain nearby where you can see the panoramic view, which is also very beautiful, and the filming effect is not lost to Riyue Mountain. Tashilhunpo Monastery: It is very convenient in Shigatse city, and there is a parking lot next to the temple. The temple covers an area of 300,000 square meters. In addition to the three magnificent red temples / stupas, there are many pure white lama accommodation and study areas nearby, which feels like visiting an ancient town, very comfortable. And there are much fewer tourists than the Potala Palace, and the experience is excellent. However, the Tashi Temple still requires a ticket of ¥ 55 in winter (peak season 100). Although the opening hours are written as 9:30-12:30 & 15:30-18:30. But the big temple will close around 17:30 in the afternoon. Remember to pay attention to the time. Mount Everest Base Camp: The Everest Base Camp will be dismantled in winter, and there is no overnight accommodation. You can only take a close look at Everest and the monument. Except for the shock of seeing the snow-capped mountains at the Gawula Pass, the base camp is actually a bit boring. Tips: There are very strict speed limits in Shigatse city and on the way to Everest. Violations will really be fined and deducted points. Remember to drive in combination with navigation prompts and speed limit signs. Pay attention to the speed camera at any time. Shigatse can apply for a border defense certificate without a criminal record certificate, and it can be done in five minutes with an ID card, which is very convenient. The places for the certificate are divided into 1, Shigatse Government Service Center (working day). 2, Snowy Everest Women's Certificate Room (weekend). Friends who are going to Ali or Everest, remember to pay attention to the time of the certificate. If you need to purchase supplies, you can buy more in Shigatse. There are large supermarkets, clothing cities, and pharmacies here, especially thick clothes and outdoor supplies can be found.

Tashilhunpo Monastery | Comprehending Humanistic Beliefs. Comprehending Humanistic Beliefs. Tashilhunpo Monastery is located at the foot of Nyiseri Mountain, south of Shigatse, which in Tibetan means 'Auspicious Sumeru Mountain'. It is the largest monastery in Shigatse and has been the residence of the Panchen Lamas from the 4th Panchen Lama onwards, hence it is known as the heart of Rear Tibet. Along with the three great monasteries of Lhasa, it is one of the four great monasteries of the Gelug school of Tibetan Buddhism. Before arriving in Shigatse, I had already visited the three great monasteries of Lhasa, so initially, Tashilhunpo Monastery did not make a deep impression on me. Compared to the previous three, it didn't strike me as much - until I entered the Coqen Hall. I spent the entire afternoon in the Coqen Hall. The Great Assembly Hall, also known as Coqen Hall, is one of the earliest buildings associated with the monastery. This hall is very special compared to the three great monasteries of Lhasa, mainly consisting of a courtyard surrounded by cloisters, with many Buddha statues and murals painted around the cloisters. In front of the Great Assembly Hall is a lecture field of over 600 square meters, where the Panchen Lama teaches and debates scriptures with the monks. Unfortunately, during my visit, the debate was not held. Pay attention to a very special place on the side of the square. Locals line up to press their ears against the wall. It is said that those with profound blessings can hear different sounds here. At 12:30 and 4:30 in the afternoon, there are chanting sessions in the Great Assembly Hall. As the time approaches, monks will blow horns on the roof, then they will head to the hall, take off their shoes at a certain corner, and find their seats in the hall. Dim lights, red pillars, monks draped in yellow robes, scriptures hanging from the beams... We queue outside the hall, listening to the sacred sounds of scriptures emanating from within, and a sense of sanctity naturally arises. Visitors can also queue with the locals and slowly enter the hall. Walking through the narrow corridors, the locals almost all bow their heads as they pass, as if the monks beside them are untouchable deities. After touring the Great Assembly Hall, I sat alone on the stone steps of the square, listening to the scriptures from the hall, looking at the courtyard, and my heart seemed to become very peaceful all of a sudden... Finally, when I was leaving, I met a young monk who was going to the Great Assembly Hall to deliver food and butter tea to the chanting monks. He smiled and handed me an apple, which made me feel very warm. Notice Opening hours: 09:00-19:30 Ticket price: Off-season 55 3 When visiting, enter from the left and exit from the right, in a clockwise direction Pay attention to the opening hours of each hall, some are closed from 11:30 to 15:30. Around three in the afternoon, locals start entering the monastery, and at that time the Panchen Lama's Stupa Hall will be open Right at the entrance of the monastery is the Tashilhunpo Monastery Restaurant, where you can dine after leaving the monastery

After visiting Lhasa and then Shigatse, you will find this small city particularly peaceful. Even the Tashilhunpo Monastery, which is quite important in Tibet, is not as crowded as the Jokhang Temple every day. Many people have not heard of this temple, but it is actually quite significant, and it is known as one of the 'Four Great Monasteries' of the Gelug sect, along with the Ganden Monastery, Sera Monastery, and Drepung Monastery in Lhasa, and is the place where the Panchen Lamas have resided. The temple was built in 1447 and has a history of nearly 600 years. Like the Jokhang Temple, there is a circumambulation route around the Tashilhunpo Monastery, and the Buddha display platform of the temple is located at the highest point of the circumambulation route, which is the best place to overlook Shigatse city. 'Circumambulation' is a religious activity in Tibetan Buddhism, where believers walk along a specific route while praying and prostrating. People believe that circumambulation is equivalent to chanting sutras, and it is the best way to eliminate disasters, avoid disasters, and accumulate merit. The Tashilhunpo Monastery covers a large area, and the golden prayer wheels are densely surrounded around the temple, forming a strong contrast with the white outer walls. These outer walls are made of local white lime mixed with a large amount of milk, sugar, etc., adding such sweet food can make the paint more sticky, make the wall more solid, and not easy to fall off. There are not many people on the circumambulation route, which makes it more solemn and solemn. You can gently turn the prayer wheel, you can walk quietly, you can pray silently. This small city sleeps at the foot of the mountain, with golden temple roofs, white stupas, and low houses, without decoration, naturally beautiful and touching. On the circumambulation route, you can always encounter many Tibetan elements, blue is the sky, red, yellow and white are the outer walls of the temple buildings, gold is the top of the tower, orange, green are the prayer flags... The sun makes the colors become passionate, and the journey of circumambulation appears mysterious and devout. The Samzhubzê Dzong stands on the top of the Sunlight Mountain, closely connected with the mountain, as if it grew out of the rock. Looking from a distance, the palace is magnificent and spectacular, really reminiscent of the Potala Palace. For foreign tourists, the circumambulation route is a landscape, while for believers, the circumambulation route is faith and devotion, it is a piece of piety, the circumambulation route has the vastness of long rivers and mountains, and the expectation of peace for a lifetime.
