When reyongcuo is north-south, it is like a big lake with sole, surrounded by mountains on three sides. There is only a gap on the east side of daerguo on the south bank. Daerguo mountain has a series of seven peaks. The mountain is dark and covered with white snow. It looks like seven pyramids arranged in order. Together with dangreyongcuo, it is regarded as the holy land of God by yongzhongben believers. Yuben Temple by the lake is a temple built in a cliff cave. It is said that it is one of the oldest temples of yongzhongben religion in Xiangxiong.

"Daerguo" and "dangrao" are both ancient Xiangxiong languages, meaning "Snow Mountain" and "Lake". One is a holy mountain, the other is a holy lake. Before the fifth century AD, on the Qinghai Tibet Plateau, the roof of the world, there once existed an ancient Xiangxiong kingdom with its own language and writing and highly developed civilization. At its most glorious time, the territory of Xiangxiong Kingdom started from Gangrenboqi (upper Xiangxiong) in today's Ali area in the west, crossed NIMA and Shenzha areas in northern Tibet (middle Xiangxiong), and reached Dingqing area in today's Changdu (lower Xiangxiong) in the East. It was the earliest civilization center of Qinghai Tibet Plateau. Among them, the center of zhongxiangxiong is located near Daguo snow mountain and dangreyongcuo. Today, people can still see the ruins of the palace of the ancient Xiangxiong kingdom here.

The ancient Xiangxiong had a very high civilization. It not only formed its own unique Xiangxiong writing, but also was the birthplace of the ancient traditional religion "Yongzhong Benjiao" in Tibet. As the holy mountain and lake of the religion, Daguo snow mountain and dangreyongcuo are the cradle of ancient Xiangxiong civilization.

geographical environment

Dangreyongcuo is the largest holy lake worshipped by Yongzhong in Tibet, and it is also the fourth largest lake in Tibet. The depth of the lake is 230 meters, while that of Namco is 120 meters. The water depth of dangreyongcuo is about twice that of Namco, which is the deepest lake known in Tibet. The deepest lake in China is Tianchi Lake in Changbai Mountain, which is 373 meters deep. However, it is the boundary lake between China and Korea. Therefore, dangreyongcuo can be called the deepest lake in China. The structure lake of the raeyongcuo system developed in the nearly NS trending fault Lake Basin extends in the NE direction, with a length of 70 km and a width of 15-20 km. The West Bank and east bank are mountains with a height of 5500-6000 m in the near NS trending direction, and modern glaciers are developed.

During the historical period, dangreyongcuo was connected with dangqiongcuo in the north and Xu rucuo in the south, with a length of 190 km. Later, due to the dry climate, the lake water retreated and dangqiongcuo, Xu rucuo and dangreyongcuo separated. When the lacustrine plain is widely distributed on the southeastern and Northern banks of Lake reyongcuo, the lacustrine terraces are developed, reaching more than 20 levels. The terrace surface is gentle, from tens of meters to hundreds of meters wide, up to several kilometers wide. Dangreyongcuo is located in the Qiangtang plateau of northern Tibet. The lake water is mainly supplied by ice and snow melt water. The pH value of the lake is 9.12, and the salinity is 9.862 g / L, which belongs to the sulfate type salt lake.

Dangreyongcuo is located in the middle of northern Tibetan Plateau in Tibet Autonomous Region, west of selinco. It is a fault Lake in northern Tibetan Plateau in China, and also a sacred lake in the mind of yongzhongbenbo believers. When reyongcuo formed a lake 3 million years ago, it is located at the bottom of a deep lake basin, extending from northeast to southwest, with a length of about 80 kilometers from north to south. In the south, daguozangbu, which originated in the Gangdise mountains, converged. The surface of the lake is more than 100 meters lower than that in its heyday, and the lake water is shrinking and salting. Lakeside plain is the main pastoral area in northern Tibet.

Dangreyongcuo is located near the ruins of the ancient Xiangxiong Kingdom, about 150 kilometers away from NIMA county. It is one of the three famous holy lakes in Tibet (the other two are mapang yongcuo and Yangzhuo yongcuo), and also the most important holy lake of Yongzhong. It is a plateau lake type scenic spot integrating nature reserve and natural landscape.

Scenery introduction

When reyongcuo lake looks like a diamond pestle, the upper circle is thin and the lower part is long, surrounded by mountains on all sides, the snow on the top of daerguo mountain in the south does not melt all the year round. Because the terrain here is relatively closed, forming a relatively warm and humid microclimate, highland barley can be planted, which is extremely rare in northern Tibet.

Pilgrims and tourists usually turn around the lake from village one and village two of devonbu Township in the middle of xiaqiucuo on the East Bank of the lake. Indian Buddhists circle the lake clockwise and yongzhongben anticlockwise. For thousands of years, Xiangke and tuodui have stepped on a gentle and steep path around the lake.

Probably because of the easy to defend and difficult to attack terrain and good climate, it was once the site of Xiangxiong's palace, one of the most concentrated areas of Xiangxiong relics in northern Tibet. It is a key to understand the mystery of Xiangxiong culture and an important place to study the local religion. "Daerguo" and "dangrao" are both ancient Xiangxiong languages, which means "Snow Mountain" and "Lake". They are sacred mountain and holy lake, holding the surrounding tribes, cattle and sheep. There is a Yuben temple built in a cliff cave by the lake. It is said that it is one of the oldest temples in our religion. So far, believers are allowed to come here for pilgrimage.

When reyongcuo is shaped like sole, surrounded by mountains on three sides, there is only a gap on the east side of daerguo on the south bank. Daerguo mountain has a series of seven peaks. The mountain is dark and covered with white snow. It looks like seven pyramids arranged in order. Dargo mountain and dangreyongcuo are regarded as holy places by the believers. Yuben Temple by the lake is a temple built in a cliff cave, which is the oldest temple of the religion.

In fact, dangqiongcuo and dangreyongcuo are in the same lake basin, which was the same lake before it dried up. This is exactly the origin of the name Dang Qiong Cuo. In Tibetan, Dang Qiong CuO means small Dang Rao yongcuo. It is said that the lake can change three colors in a day. On the East Bank of the lake are the continuous and screen like Chu red mountain walls, which clearly record the history of the decline of dangreyongcuo lake. The steps washed by the lake water circle after circle from the top of the lake to the lakeside.

Dangreyongcuo is a sacred lake in the eyes of Benbo believers. From NIMA county to the southwest, about 8 kilometers later, turn to the left fork, and then to the south about 80 kilometers, over a 5000 meter pass, you can enter the dangreyongcuo Lake Basin. Wenbu Township, a small village with more than 100 families, is located on the shore of Lake dangreyongcuo. Most of the people in the village are semi farming and semi grazing. They have opened some fields on the lakeside to grow highland barley, potatoes, rape and cabbage. It's amazing that these crops can be planted at an altitude of more than 4500 meters. This is due to the local lake climate.

Exotic legend

When reyongcuo is surrounded by mountains, there is only a gap on the east side of daerguo on the south bank. It is said that dangreyongcuo was originally a devil lake. Later, the first generation Prince of Xiangxiong, who was the founder of yongzhongben religion, dun basin conquered the devil in the lake and became a god lake. There are seven peaks in a row of dalguo mountain. The peak is covered with snow all the year round, like seven giants in white hats standing side by side, guarding dangreyongcuo faithfully. The scenery here is almost holy. It is regarded as the holy mountain and holy lake of the religion together with dangreyongcuo. Its status is equal to that of Gangrenboqi and mapanyongcuo, which are regarded as the world center by Buddhism. It is said that the bottom of the lake is interlinked.

Every year, many believers come here to visit the mountains and lakes. Yuben temple, a temple built in a cliff cave, is also preserved by the lake. It is said that Yuben temple is the oldest temple of this religion. It worships the goddess of wolf face, and the incense is still strong. There are four pools on four sides of the lake. It is said that bathing here can wash away sin and disease. But the water is freezing. Walking about 15 kilometers, the road was blocked by a huge mountain wall. The mountain wall runs from east to west, and the east end of the mountain falls into the lake. A path extends along a slope to the top of the mountain wall, which should be the location of Xiangxiong Kingdom - qiongzong. When the lake reyongcuo is held by a tribe on the edge of Hoh Xil no man's land, this tribe is Wenbu, known as the last tribe of this religion. Most of the people in the village are semi farming and semi grazing. They feed cattle, sheep, horses and other livestock while planting highland barley, potatoes, rape and cabbage.
