Midui Glacier (including electric vehicle ride)—Ranwu Lake
Midui Glacier is located in Yupug Township, Bomi County, and is one of the most important maritime glaciers in Tibet. The main peak of the glacier stands at an elevation of 6,800 meters, with a snow line at just 4,600 meters. The glacier is covered in snow year-round, creating a breathtaking and magical landscape. Due to the relatively warm temperature of the glacier's surface, it supports a variety of life forms, including ice worms, ice fleas, and other microorganisms. Influenced by the climate of the eastern section of the Himalayas, although Midui Glacier is situated at a latitude of 29°N, the temperature at the glacier's terminus is lower than that of glaciers on Bogda Peak, located at approximately 44 ° N. This is a unique phenomenon among modern glaciers in China.
Ranwu Lake, known as Ranwu Tso in Tibetan, is located in the southwestern corner of Baxoi County in Chamdo. The lake was formed by a landslide or mudslide blocking the river, creating a barrier lake. Due to its proximity to the Sichuan-Tibet Highway, Ranwu Lake is well-known to many travelers journeying along the Sichuan-Tibet route.
