brief introduction

It's only 71 kilometers from Zhongba. On the far west side of the road, there are golden sand dunes, which are magnificent against the snow peak at the end of the sky, blue sky and white clouds. On the road between the two places, you may also see the Yarlung Zangbo River in the corner of Maquan lake, the first great lake region in Shangyuan. The scenery along the road is picturesque, but the sandy land on both sides of the road is always threatening the passing vehicles. This short section of road is covered with thick yellow sand. Drivers are very careful when driving. If they don't pay attention, they will be trapped in the sand nest. Taking this part of the road, the truck is a headache, but the 4WD off-road vehicle is not so troublesome. After leaving payang, you will enter the vast Ali plateau, and at the junction of the two areas, mayoula area, which is 252 km long from payang to hol, is the area with the worst road condition, the most bumpy and the most streams on the whole south line. No matter the travel team or the long-distance truck, they usually stay in payang for one night to check the vehicles and save their energy. Therefore, payang has become an important food and lodging place on the south line. Payang is a grassland town with Western flavor. The streets are full of clean soil. The town is loosely arranged with neat houses. The clothes of the Tibetan residents who travel between the alleys also have a strong ethnic flavor.

Main facilities

The square in the center of the town is an important meeting and exchange place for the whole town. Many Tibetans often stroll here and can take many unique pictures of people. There is also a large area of pasture outside the town. Cattle and sheep roam between the green grassland and the snow capped mountains, a picturesque pastoral scenery.

Tourism strategy

Best travel time: all year round

Tips:

Because of the strong sunlight and strong ultraviolet radiation, you need to prepare sunglasses, sun caps, sun umbrellas and sunscreen oil. In addition, the local climate is dry. You need to prepare lip balm, moisturizing cream and other anti drying protection.

Due to the high altitude, strong sunshine and large temperature difference between morning and night, tourists in cold regions such as Mt. Everest need to prepare four seasons' clothing. In winter, they should wear down jacket (hat is the best), assault pants, thick coat, jeans, gloves and warm shoes (women should not wear high heels). March to May: jackets, sweaters, etc.; June to October: coats, long shirts, slacks; December to February: coats, down jackets, scarves, gloves, thick jackets
