It was difficult to imagine what a landscape the river above the plateau was. In the early morning, go to the Manla Reservoir direction to the car to take the provincial road, the Nianchu River has been accompanied by the roadside, it began to be vague, the sky is also cloudy, until the bright sun rises, then you can see the truth of this river, very clear.

Out of the fear of the high altitude of Shigatse, it is easy to lack oxygen, just arrived here really dare not act, it is better to take a car and see the river flowing through this year. The Nianchu River, an important tributary of the Yarlung Zangbo River, originated in the northern foothills of the Himalayas in the Tibet Autonomous Region. The river passes through the river and forms fertile fields, known as Tibetan granaries. Unfortunately, due to the weather, there is no charm of the Nianchu River, and it feels flat.

The Nianchu River in Tibet is a large tributary of the Yarlung Zangbo River, which flows southeast and northwest, and is about 217 kilometers long.

On the way from the river to Shigatse, I often see a blue river on the side of the road, that is the Nianchu River. The water is very green and there is no vegetation on both sides of the river. The river is sometimes wide, the river level is like a mirror, slowly flowing, and sometimes through the canyon, the river is steeply narrowed, and the river is rushing. The Nianchu River is accompanied by the road, moistening the land along the coast.

It can be said that the mother river in Shigatse, Tibet, originated from the Himalayas snow-capped mountains, with abundant water, moistening the vast land in the basin, making Shigatse, which has an average altitude of more than 3,000 meters, become the main source of Qinghai.
