Even so, people think it is worth coming here. Kangrinboqe is the best known sacred mountain in tibet, situated at an altitude of 6,656 meters above sea level, the main peak of the Gangdise Mountains, and located in Burang County. The peak is in the shape of a circular cone, capped with white snow all year round. Buddhists worship it as a sacred mountain, and each year numerous pilgrims come here from afar. They walk around the peak, the circumference being 55 kilometers.
Pilgrims also come from neighboring countries such as India and Nepal.
Countless brooks flow down the Kangrinboqe Mountain, like hair, stretching to Baga Grassland and converging in the depth of the grassland to form the Mapam Yumco Lake. The lake covers an area of 412 square kilometers, and the deepest spot is 77 meters. The lake is surrounded by quiet and beautiful snow-capped mountains. According to a legend, Sakyamuni, the founder of Buddhism, was born in the Year of the Horse. In each Year of the Horse, gods gather around the sacred mountain and lake.
