World cypress King Garden

In the valleys from Lang County, Milin to the middle and lower reaches of the Niyang River, there are often scattered cypress trees. The tower shaped crown and tall and straight trunk are very eye-catching. This is the unique ancient tree in Tibet - giant cypress (also known as Yarlung Zangbo River cypress). Jubai Nature Reserve in Bajie township of Linzhi county is a relatively complete pure forest with concentrated trees and good growth. It is estimated that the tree has been around for 2000-2500 years and has been protected by local people as a "sacred tree". Ancient Berlin is a holy land in the eyes of local Tibetans. It is said that the tree of life of Xin raomiwo, the founder of Bon religion, is the ancient cypress. Therefore, the largest and oldest trees in the forest are always wrapped with the wind horse flag. The forest is also full of manidui, and believers often come to worship from afar.
