Discover the Mysteries of Lhegu Glacier
Lhegu Glacier, the source of the Parlung Zangbo River, is a breathtaking accumulation of ice, snow, rock, and sediment. Nestled near Lhegu Village in Baxoi County, Qamdo City, this moving ice body plays a vital role in the environment of the southwest Chinese mainland's Xizang Autonomous Region.
The region's abundant rainfall has contributed to the formation of maritime glaciers like Lhegu. Comprising six glaciers, Lhegu Glacier is not only a magnificent sight on its own but also responsible for creating other natural wonders, including Ra'og Lake—the largest lake in eastern Xizang.
Explore the beauty but reclusive glaciers in the gallery and witness the stunning landscapes shaped by these icy giants.
