Shisa Pangma, at a height of 8,012m, ranking the 14th highest mountain in the world, is located at 85.70 east longitude and 28.30 north latitude stands in the middle section of the Himalayas mountains. entirely in Chinese territory. In Tibetan language, "Shisa Pangma" means "severe climate". With its bizzarre sight and shape, the serac area, at an altitude of around 5,000-5,800 meters above sea level, happens to be the most fascinating of all, looking just like a lively "yard of ice crystal groves". To the east of Mt. Shisapangma is Mt. Molamechen (7,703m) to the west are Mt. Xiteng (7,792m) and Mt. Nandengri (7,205m)

We will spend some night in Lhasa visiting all valuable places and sanctuaries. Than we drive 670 kilometers from Lhasa through Gyangze and Shigatse on the Sino-Nepal Highway to Xegar. Then, 138 kilometers westward through Tingri County and Menhadun, and another 50 kilometers along a simply-built road.
