Introduction

Pekucuo, located in Nyalam County, Shigatse Prefecture, is the largest lake in the region, covering an area of over 300 square kilometers.

Along the lakeshore, various wild animals such as wild horses, Tibetan wild donkeys, Tibetan antelopes, cranes, yellow ducks, and gray ducks can also be found.
