Ranwu Lake

About This Attraction

Ranwu Lake is located in Basu on National Highway 318. It is the main source of the Palong Zangbo River, a tributary of the Brahmaputra, with a length of about 25 kilometers. The whole lake is in the shape of a long and narrow river valley, with a width of 12 kilometers. To the north of Wuhu Lake is the famous Laigu Glacier, which extends to the lake. Whenever the snow and ice melt, the snow water is poured into the lake, so that there is always a rich source of water here. Ranwu Lake is surrounded by a large meadow of green grass, covered with bright wolf poisonous flowers, blue lake water and snow-capped peaks, forming a beautiful scenery. Depending on the season, the lake water also presents several colors such as blue or green, with many rocks and small islands interspersed among them.
