"Compared to other cities in Tibet, Nyingchi has a relatively low altitude, a comfortable climate, and more flights to and from the mainland.

Recently, at the Nyingchi Yarlung Zangbo Grand Canyon scenic spot, Jiangsu tourist Zhang Feng said.
September to November is regarded as the best viewing season for the snow-covered plateau and is also the traditional peak season for tourism.
Deji Wangmu, a villager in Tunbai Village, Pai Town, Milin County, Nyingchi, runs the 73-room Gongzun Demu Farm (referred to as the "farm"), and the room occupancy rate is over 90% during this period.

The development of eco-tourism can also eat well-off rice."

In order not to affect the overall ecological environment, these projects involving breeding have not been implemented.
