These 8 magnificent, beautiful and leisure self-driving routes
There is always one that makes your heart beat
1. Tibet Ngari Ring Road – Road to Paradise
If there is a heaven on earth, it must be Ali!
This is not only a paradise for animals, but also a holy place that self-drivers dream of.

Here, there are many mountains and snow-capped mountains, and the Himalayas and Gangdise Mountains gather here. It is called the ancestor of thousands of mountains.
There are many rivers and lakes here.
It is the birthplace of the Yarlung Zangbo River, the Indus River and the Ganges River, also known as “the source of all rivers”.
The vastness of the world gives herdsmen the most primitive and pure nomadic lifestyle, the broadest mind, and the people here have the simplest and deepest beliefs.
As you drive through here, the car kicks up dust across the vast expanse of Ali.
You will find that you are freer than eagles and antelopes!
