Gawula Pass, Tibet | The winding road of life, 108 turns to Mount Everest.

Gawula Pass: The most spectacular viewing platform in the world. Located in Dingri County, Shigatse, Tibet, China, the pass is 5,210 meters above sea level. It is under the jurisdiction of the Mount Everest National Nature Reserve. To enter the Everest Base Camp from the traditional route, you need to enter the Mount Everest National Nature Reserve and cross the Gawula Pass. Gawula Pass is located to the north of the Himalayas. Standing at the pass and looking south at the great Himalayas, you can see 5 peaks over 8,000 meters and more than 40 peaks over 7,000 meters on a clear day. This is the only place in the world where you can see 5 peaks over 8,000 meters at the same time. The pass is 5,200 meters above sea level, and you can see 5 peaks over 8,000 meters in the distance. There are only 14 peaks over 8,000 meters in the world, and 5 of them are here‼ ▶ Mount Everest, the highest peak in the world, 8,844.8m ▶ Lhotse, the fourth highest peak in the world, 8,516m ▶ Makalu, the fifth highest peak in the world, 8,485m ▶ Cho Oyu, the sixth highest peak in the world, 8,201m ▶ Shishapangma, the fourteenth highest peak in the world, 8,027m In addition, there are countless peaks over 7,000 meters, so it is not an exaggeration to call it the third pole of the world. P.S. This is also a more suitable place to take sunrise photos of the golden mountain. Early birds, go take more spectacular photos! Time: The golden mountain usually appears about 10 minutes before sunrise. You can check the sunrise time of the day on the weather app, and then arrive and prepare the camera position in advance. You can go to Dingri first, and then get up early in the morning and leave Dingri to arrive. Shooting: The pass is 5,200 meters above sea level, and the weather is cold in the morning. If you stay for a long time, you need to prepare thick clothes. If the weather is good, you can see a row of snow-capped mountains. You can take a photo with Mount Everest with a telephoto lens, which is very photogenic. Temperature: Before sunrise, the Gawula Pass at an altitude of 5,240 meters is very cold, and the wind is blowing. The temperature in the summer morning is also around zero, and the cold in winter is close to minus twenty degrees.
