The highlight of Gyantse is Pelkor Chöde Monastery, which is the only monastery where the three major sects of Tibetan Buddhism gather. Karola Glacier is the glacier closest to the road. You can see the ancient glaciers up close, stretching from the top of the mountain to the roadside, and visit the Naiqin Kangsang Snow Mountain together, which is definitely a worthwhile trip. Gyantse Dzong is another beautiful scenery of Gyantse tourism. You can climb to the top of Gyantse Dzong to enjoy a panoramic view of Gyantse's old town.
