The beautiful and holy Cuo Pu Lake is a sight you cannot miss in your lifetime!
Traveling along National Highway 318, passing through the city in the sky, Litang, crossing the Haizi Mountain to Batang County, you can see the "First Holy Lake in Kamba" - Cuo Pu Lake under the Zajin Jabo God Mountain.
If you have ever been attracted by the famous epic, King Gesar, then the beautiful and holy Cuo Pu Lake is a sight you cannot miss in your lifetime.
Above 4100 meters above sea level, the scenery of Cuo Pu Lake is also intoxicating, with snow peaks, deep forests, wide grasslands, mani stones engraved with ancient praises, and the tranquil and tranquil god lake nestled in the embrace of pine and fir trees, with swans and black-necked cranes flying across the sky and breaking the water surface from time to time.
Cuo Pu Lake is a typical glacial lake. The overall shape is nearly round, like a gem embedded in the plateau, shining with colorful luster with the changes of mountains, sun, moon and stars. On sunny days, it forms a silver, blue, deep green, and dark green color from near to far. When the sunset, it gradually dyes from east to west with golden, green, and indigo colors. If you catch the full moon
The white night color is rippling on the background of Jingtai blue, and the breeze is blowing, sparkling, presenting a magnificent view of millions of silver fish jumping!

🏠About accommodation
【Red Tibetan House Garden Homestay】
A traditional Tibetan rammed earth house with a wall thickness of 1.5 meters😺, warm in winter and cool in summer. The interior is luxuriously decorated in Tibetan style with solid wood, with a faint scent of pine, and each room type is different. The owner says that some rooms have hand-painted murals✍️, with traditional Tibetan style, and a strong sense of age. The same architectural principle as the Potala Palace, suitable for plateau areas. The homestay also has a 30-acre century-old apple orchard🍎. Before we left, the owner picked apples for us, which were big and sweet! There is a water tank scene in the homestay, made of pure brass, which is said to have been inherited by the owner's family for four generations👍~
The owner of the homestay is very enthusiastic, telling us about the precautions for playing, as well as the travel strategy, introducing us to the local customs, and the service is very considerate♥️! The owner also has a super beautiful garden, with high-altitude vegetables🥬 and grapes🍇 planted by the owner himself, the scenery is very beautiful~ The Sichuan cuisine recommended by the owner of the homestay tastes great, there are many dishes, all authentic Sichuan cuisine, my friends and I can't stop eating. The owner also kindly took out many sets of Tibetan clothes from his own Tibetan clothing store for tourists to try on for free. There are people of all ages, for those who like to record life, it is simply heaven😊! The homestay has a lot of vegetation and plenty of oxygen. I had altitude sickness before, and it was well relieved in the homestay👀. If it weren't for the itinerary that had been decided, I really wanted to stay for another day. A treasure homestay that must not be missed!!!

Kangba's first sacred lake—Cuo Pu Lake
Located in the Cuo Pu Gou in Batang, Sichuan, Cuo Pu Lake almost concentrates the beautiful scenery of the western Sichuan Tibetan area, including snow mountains, grasslands, forests, lakes, and temples. The steep cliffs and snowy Zajin Jabo God Mountain tightly surround the sacred Cuo Pu Lake, which is also one of the most difficult peaks to conquer in the world's rock climbing world. The steep mountain and the dangerous cliff are evident. The scenery of Cuo Pu Lake is different in the four seasons of the year, and there will be unexpected surprises when you come.

The sister lakes nestled among the green waves of the forest
In the primitive forest on the north side of the secluded paradise Lake Chupu, there is a pair of crystal-clear sister lakes like emeralds, nestled among the green waves of the forest, that is, Zhi Ma Yong Cuo and Kang Zhu La Cuo. Zhi Ma Yong Cuo, with its blue water, is clear and very elegant; Kang Zhu La Cuo, located to the west of Zhi Ma Yong Cuo, has light blue water and a pretty shape. The scenery is similar year after year, but the colors change every year, and all the beautiful scenery belongs to nature.
