The Nangpo Gully Scenic Zone
The Nangpo Gully, located about 50 kilometers northwest from Gongbo'gyamda County, is one of the northern tributaries of the Nyang River. Its upper stream is formed by the confluence of Yangwo, Gyixing and Boru gullies. At Boru Gully's source is the Karst Cave. At about 4,200 meters above sea level are three sites of hot springs, which are, from above to below, the Nun's Hot Springs, the Lama's Hot Springs and the Boru Hot Springs. They are natural baths with comfortable water temperatures. Near the hot springs are many old pine trees and cypresses, which combine with the cave and stream into a poetic and picturesque scene. The Yangwo Gully northwest of Nangpo Village is known for its jagged rocks. At the foot of the mountain is the Bagar Monastery, which was built during the period of the fifth Dalai Lama. It belongs to the Yellow Sect of the Tibetan Buddhism. In the natural cave above the monastery are murals of holy animals and Buddhist images. There are also caves within the cave and an overhead walkway. Below the monastery is the Karst Intermittent Spring, which spurts water 6 times a day all year. In autumn, when the leaves have fallen, the bushes by the gully below the monastery show jade-red bear branches, forming a "Red Cloud Gully" of 5 kilometers. The cobbles in the bed of the stream look like scattered pearls, so this place is also called "Pearl Shoal." The scenes here are unique and beautiful.
