Naijingangsa, one of the four major snow mountains in Tibet. Like a beautiful lady dressing quietly, Karola gazes afar among the mountains. It is said that Karola Glacier is the closest glacier to the highway in Tibet, only about 300 meters away. Karola Glacier is located at the border of Langkazi County and Shigatse County, 71 kilometers away from Shigatse County. After leaving Yamdrok Lake, you will come to the terminal moraine of Karola Glacier after crossing the 4,330-meter Semila Pass. The elevation of the front of the glacier tongue is 5,560 meters, and the viewing area of Karola Glacier is about 5,400 meters above sea level, in the area around 5,600 meters north of the mountain pass. Naijingangsa is the main peak of Lhagangri Mountain, north of the Himalayas. According to legend, it is the residence of the four major mountain gods of Tibetan Buddhism, the Western Mountain God Noji Kangwa Sangbu. Naijingangsa is surrounded by more than 10 peaks above 6,000 meters and is one of the four major snow mountains in Tibet.
