来古冰川 — Attraction in Chamdo City

Don’t be misled by previous reviews! This scenic area has never offered tickets for ¥60—not even during the off-season! It’s currently off-season, and there isn’t even a shuttle bus running, yet they shamelessly charge ¥150 for entry!

The bundled ticket on Dianping app is a complete joke! The shuttle service is suspended, yet they’re still selling package deals—totally misleading customers!

Just like Ganden Sumtseling Monastery, this place is a mess also! The ticket office at the entrance says one thing, but once you’re up the mountain, it’s a completely different story!

Especially at Parking Lot No. 1, where a local villager blocks the road—no ID, no ticket machine, no receipt—just verbally demanding money from tourists!

The ticket office said you could walk 1.5 km to the No. 1 viewing platform or pay ¥100 to ride a horse. I was ready to ride, but when I got there, they told me there were no horses‼️ If there are no horses, shouldn’t you inform visitors beforehand so they can choose not to come to this chaotic dump? First you trick tourists into buying tickets, then drive over 10 km to the parking lot, only to be told the promised service doesn’t exist. How is this not a scam‼️

And the worst part is the service guy at Parking Lot No. 1! Is he an official staff member or not? If yes, wear a proper ID and issue receipts. If not, get him out of here! He acts like a local thug—no professionalism, no manners, and talks like every visitor owes him money❗️He picks fights with anyone who asks questions and always has that ‘pay up or get lost’ attitude!

I saw him arguing with another tourist right when I arrived—again about hidden fees and lack of prior notice. The tourist was recording the dispute for evidence, which is totally legitimate. But the guy claimed it violated his portrait rights! You’re the one charging money without informing people—that’s a violation of consumer rights! Even law enforcement can be filmed in public, let alone someone collecting fees! Filming in public spaces does not violate portrait rights!

And when tourists ask for a receipt, he pretends to be illiterate and says he can’t write! It’s both infuriating and pathetic! Shouldn’t unqualified staff like this be sent for basic training before working? Is this really a certified 5A scenic area, or just a scam run by local bullies‼️

The management is cowardly and shirks responsibility. Pay an extra ¥100 per person to drive up yourself, but if anything goes wrong, the scenic area takes no responsibility! (Other visitors said the road is extremely steep and dangerous—not recommended for self-driving.) Pay ¥200 to ride a local Tibetan’s vehicle, but the tour time is strictly limited—you might not even have time to take pretty photos, let alone fly a drone or shoot a video!

A place that offers zero service dares to charge ¥150 for entry—that’s already outrageous! And inside, you still have to deal with thugs like this guy! He even claims to be a man of faith who wouldn’t lie! If you can’t even show basic courtesy or service attitude and use religion as a shield when things go wrong, Buddha would slap you for...

A must go! Breathtaking beautiful glacier. Totally walkab so no need to...

我们是夏天去的，来古冰川在夏天会融化，所以当地的藏族小哥直接带我们掠过了这里，到达了更深处的雅隆冰川，那里有着更壮观的场景。不过听说这里在冬天会有美丽的蓝冰，所以我希望找一个冬天还能回...
