Lenggacuo Lake in Mt.Gonggar
Lenggacuo Lake also reputed as the "Eye of Mt.Gongga," is a high-altitude lake situated 
at approximately 4,500 meters on the western slopes of Mount Gongga. Located behind Yulongxi village, Lenggacuo Lake is accessible via a 3-hour’s hike (horseback riding is also possible). The lake's fame stems from its perfect reflection of Mount Gongga's 7,556-meter peak, making it the best point for photographing the view of snow-capped mountain's mirrored image. Its mirror-like surface creates unique natural phenomena like the "Golden Mountain in the Sun" and "Snow Mountain Star Trails," which display symmetrical beauty at dawn and dusk. As a sacred lake in Tibetan culture, you will trek through an array full of prayer flags, offering both ecological observation and cultural immersion.
Lenggacuo Lake, spanning approximately 0.03 square kilometers, is a glacial lake formed by ice erosion that becomes a frozen lake during winter, remaining frozen for up to five months. With water transparency exceeding 6 meters, the lake creates a panoramic mirror image of snow-capped peaks under calm conditions, particularly serene in autumn. The daily "Golden Mountain" phenomenon lasts about 20 minutes, showcasing a striking contrast between golden snow peaks and cobalt-blue waters. It is also good condition of stargazing with 68% visibility of the galaxy each year-round, while lunar phases reveal the Ecliptic Light and aurora phenomena.
Lenggacuo enjoys the wonder of golden sun shine on snow peak and the sea of clouds over Mount Gongga, both of which are breathtakingly beautiful.
