Tirthapura Hot Springs

Ali, China

Located in the Tibetan Autonomous Region of China, the Tirthapura Hot Springs site is considered the third most holy place in the Himalayan Ranges after Mount Kailash and Lake Manasarovar. Located to the northwest of Mount Kailash, Tirthapura is a very holy place for the Buddhists in the Tibetan Autonomous region of China. Devotees who visit Mount Kailash and the Guru Rinpoche Monastery end their pilgrimage at the hot springs. The landscape is a treat for photographers with the massive snow-capped Mount Kailash, the brightly painted Monastery on the other. You will find thousands of colorful prayer flags fluttering in the breeze as you go down the slopes.
