Majestic Nyenchen Tanglha Mountain silhouetted against a vibrant sunset sky, casting long shadows over Tibetan plateau
Golden sunset illuminating the majestic Nyenchen Tanglha Mountain, a 7,000+ meter peak, captured while traveling along National Road 349 from Yamdrok Lake towards Shigatse in Tibet.

After leaving Yamdrok Lake, I followed National Road 349 towards Shigatse. I was having such a blast that I only emerged from the mountain valley of Nyenchen Tanglha at sunset. Nyenchen Tanglha was the first snow mountain over 7000 meters I encountered on my trip to Tibet. Its entrance is on the east side at Kangbu Gongba, but I didn't recognize it when passing by, so I missed it.
