From virgin forests to seas of flowers and mountains stretching across the landscape, Nyingchi is a fascinating destination to explore. But the natural beauty of Nyinchi is most famous for is its peach blossoms in spring. While the mountains afar are still covered with snow, peach flowers are already in full blossom.

The first Nyingchi Peach Flower Festival was held in 2002, and it is now a famous annual festival.
