Escaping the summer heat with kids, Nyingchi is truly the perfect choice! Cool 22℃ weather, and scenery even more stunning than New Zealand, after a week of fun, you simply don’t want to leave✨ Especially Songtsam hotels, having been to Tibet 5 times, I always choose them—“a must-stay in this lifetime” is no exaggeration!
The window views at Songtsam are absolutely breathtaking, each one offers a unique wild luxury scene⭐ In the morning, open the window to see the sunlit golden mountains right before your eyes⛰️; at night, lying in bed, the starry Milky Way feels within reach🌌; sometimes you can even see sunset rainbows, and the kids keep saying, “This must be where immortals live!”
🚗 Perfect 5-day itinerary for traveling with kids:
🔹D1: Nyingchi airport pickup → Fozhang Sand Dunes (kids love playing in the sand, plus you can see snow mountains and desert together) → Century-old Tibetan house (experience Tibetan culture, kids are super curious) → Yarlung Tsangpo Grand Canyon (feel the grandeur with kids) → Suosong Village
🔹D2: Suosong Village → Namcha Barwa Base Camp (close-up view of Namcha Barwa Peak, super stunning) → Sejila Pass (ring the ox-head bell, a meaningful ritual for kids) → Lulang
🔹D3: Lulang primitive pasture life experience (feeding lambs, petting calves, very healing for kids) → Alpine pasture coffee (parents relax, kids run free in the pasture) → Basongcuo Lake
🔹D4: Basongcuo Lake → Xinco hike (easy difficulty, beautiful scenery along the way) → Basongcuo boat tour (kids love boat rides) → Baiba
🔹D5: Baiba tent camp (experience tent life, kids find it super novel) → Nyingchi airport drop-off
