Chomolhari (Jomolhari)

ཇོ་མོ་ལྷ་རི།

A sacred mountain on the China–Bhutan border, about 7,300 m high. From the Phari grassland you can look up close at its pyramid-like snowy peak.

Chomolhari rises to about 7,326 m on the China–Bhutan border and is a sacred mountain in the eyes of Tibetan Buddhist believers. On the road running north from Phari town to around Duqing Co, the snowy peak towers above the open Phari grassland, with yaks and snow peaks in the same frame. It is the most striking scenery in Yadong. Early morning and late afternoon offer the best light. Winter and spring are windy and cold. The viewpoint sits at about 4,400 m, so watch for altitude sickness and keep warm.
