The Covenant of Blue Ice | The First Mysterious Sheep Herding Festival of Pumoyong Tso

| The First Mysterious Sheep Herding Festival of Pumoyong Tso. Focus on the millennium folk customs, looking for the most beautiful blue ice! I believe that anyone who has seen the documentary 'The Third Pole' will not be unfamiliar with the Sheep Herding Festival of Pumoyong Tso. ㊙️On the east bank of Pumoyong Tso, there is a 'highest administrative village in the world'--Tuiwa Village (altitude 5070) Because of the high altitude, the local villagers are mainly pastoral. Due to the cold winter and high altitude, the original grassland can no longer provide enough food for the sheep, but there is a rich grassland on the island in the heart of Pumoyong Tso, so every February, when Pumoyong Tso is frozen, the villagers will drive the sheep to the island. Wait until the next year before Pumoyong Tso is thawed, and then drive the sheep back to the village. This pastoral method has been continued for a thousand years. Sheep Herding Festival: February 1, 2024 Address: Next to Tuiwa Village, Pumoyong Tso ⚠️Precautions: 1️⃣You need to apply for a border defense certificate to go to Pumoyong Tso 2️⃣The ice surface is very slippery, remember to bring ice claws 3️⃣The ice surface reflects strong ultraviolet rays, remember to do sun protection 4️⃣The temperature of the ice surface gradually decreases, you can stick some warm baby on the sole of your shoes and body
