The lamp was broken then, the pieces of the lamp dropped onto the ground, turning into hot springs and burned the man to his end. People said that the hot springs were the fairy's tears. The town lies at high and cold plateau. However, people approaching will see some hot springs blowing out smokes going up to sky. While the surrounding area was barren and extremely cold, Yangpachen is green with grass and highland barley growing exuberantly.
Smokes emitting from the springs cover the small town.
Now it has a thermoelectricity plant, green houses and hot spring bathrooms, attracting more and more tourists. Copyright 1999 Tibet Trip. All rights reserved.
