A sentimental mistake

Introducing Affectionate Mistakes

Duoqingcuo is located in Yadong Pari Town. The main peak of Zhuomulari Snow Mountain on the lakeside is 7,600 meters high. It is the seventh peak of the Himalayas and is known as the Goddess Peak.

The lakeside pasture is lush, wildflowers bloom on the meadows along the shore, flocks of water birds frolic in the water, and cattle and horses graze leisurely on the shore, creating a tranquil and peaceful plateau scenery.

The beautiful Duoqing Co Lake reflects numerous snow-capped mountains in its vast lake. When clouds and mist rise, Zhuom Lhari and Duoqing Co Lake gaze upon each other from afar. At sunrise and sunset, the snow-capped mountains and the lake sparkle with brilliance. In ancient Tibetan mythology, Zhuom Lhari and Duoqing Co Lake are hailed as sacred mountains and holy lakes. Locals offering white Hada and barley wine when passing by these sacred mountains pray for the gods' protection.
