As the remotest county in the southeast Tibet, Motuo is located on the southern slope of the Himalayas, covering an area of 30,550sqkm; the mysterious place is mainly inhabited by the Menba and Luoba ethnic groups with a population of only about 10,000. It is Tibet’s purest and holiest region, and it is hard for you to imagine that one can enjoy the tropical fruits such as bananas and pineapples in the snow-capped mountains, which is really the case in Motuo. Trekkers can enjoy the Motuo State Natural Reserve, gorgeous waterfalls, rivers, and rich flora, which worth your trekking.
