time:2006-3-29 Hot:14

Located to the east of Nyingchi County, the Seche La Mountain is a part of the Nyainqentanglha Mountain Range, the watershed of the Nyang River and the Polung Zangbo River. The Sichuan-Tibetan Highway passes by. Standing at the mountain pass at 4,728 meters above sea level, one can admire the sunrise, sea of cloud, endless forest and the grand Namjagbarwa Peak. The Benri La Mountain near the Dagze Village on the western slope of the mountain is a sacred site of the Tibetan Bon Sect and one of the four great holy mountains in Tibet. All year, devotees make pilgrimages to this spot from all areas. Every tenth day of the eighth month of the Tibetan calendar, a grand mountain worshipping activity is held, which is called "Nangbolhasoi," meaning "seeking for treasures from immortals."

There are two routes of touring in Nyingchi. One is Lhasa _ the Basum Lake _ Bayi Town _ Lhasa, which passes four scenic spots of the Basum Lake, Bayi Town, the Seche La Mountain and the Burqug Lamaling. This route is good for both touring and conducting scientific investigations. The other route is Lhasa _ Nyingchi _ Mainling _Shannan. Along this eastern circular route one can admire natural landscapes, visit cultural and historical sites, and enjoy the folklore.
