Lhasa-Kading Valley-Yarlung Tsangpo Grand Canyon-Suosong Village
Today, the driver will pick you up at the hotel and head to Kathok Gorge. [Kathok Gorge] is a superb scenic spot in Nyingchi's forest canyon. On both sides of the gorge, high mountains and steep cliffs rise in layered ridges, with fantastic peaks, strange rocks, and ancient towering trees. Wildflowers fill the valley with fragrance, and the air is fresh. Inside Kathok Gorge, a waterfall with a drop of more than 200 meters plunges from the sky, extremely spectacular. On the cliffs there are naturally formed wonders such as a great Buddha, a goddess, Guanyin, Dharma protectors, Tathagata Buddha, a lama chanting scriptures, a divine turtle calling to the sky, a divine eagle presenting treasure, butter lamps, and the Tibetan "Six-Character Mantra" Buddhist characters. The most magical of all is a great Buddha naturally formed in the waterfall water that appears and disappears, which is how Kathok Gorge's Heavenly Buddha Waterfall got its name.
After visiting Kathok Gorge, you will head to the Yarlung Tsangpo Grand Canyon. [Yarlung Tsangpo Grand Canyon] is the deepest canyon on Earth and is known as "humanity's last secret realm." You can follow the scenic area shuttle bus to visit the Daduka Ancient Castle ruins, marvel at the magical power of love at "Qingbi Shijian," or close your eyes, join your palms, make a wish, or place a small mani stone to pray for your wishes. Or you can listen to the roaring symphony of the Yarlung Tsangpo Canyon at the water-close platform, and view the magnificent scenery between the villages on both sides of the canyon from the viewing platform. Afterwards, arrive at Suosong Village for overnight stay.
