Zogong County, Qamdo Prefecture, Tibet Province.
Dongda Mountain is located in Zuogong County, Tibet. The pass is 5,008 meters above sea level (the actual altitude is 5,130 meters). It is also known as the "forbidden zone of life" and has snow all year round. It is a holy place for mountaineering enthusiasts. On one side of the mountain is the surging Lancang River, and on the other side of the mountain is Zuogong. In Dongda Mountain, the temperature in the Bangda grassland can reach below zero degrees Celsius. However, the temperature on the banks of the Lancang River and Nujiang River is around 20℃. The altitude difference experienced in a day can be nearly 2,500 meters. Between the two counties are Jueba Mountain, Lawu Mountain and Dongda Mountain with an altitude of nearly 6,000 meters. The road conditions are not very good, and there is often a feeling of "people and horses falling down".
