Skulpturen am Wagingersee.🗽

Schöne Grüße aus Berchtesgadener Land! 😀👋🍀🍀🌞
Heute war schönes Wetter mit viel Sonne. 🌞
Wir haben uns paar Zugänge zum See über Badestrände angeschaut. Die Badezeit irgendwo draußen ist für mich persönlich abgeschlossen. Ein paar mutige Leute waren jedoch heute im See schwimmen 🏊‍♂️.

I reached the REAL #SOURCE of the #GANGA River - JiemaYangzong Glacier on my way to touch Mt. #Kailash.
Everyone knows that #Lake #Manasarovar is the source of the #Brahmaputra #River, but few knows that the river’s true origin lies beneath the majestic peaks of Mount Kailash at the Jiemayangzong Glacier. On my journey from #Lhasa to #MountKailash, I drove 50 kilometers off the G219 main raod, traversing deserts and uninhabited areas to visit the Jiemayangzong Glacier—the true source of the Brahmaputra, which nurtures Asia’s greatest river. It is hard to imagine that the roaring waters, which surge through the lush forests of eastern Tibet and flow through the plains of India before eventually emptying into the Indian Ocean, originate from these snow-capped peaks and layers of glacial ice. This is where the lifeblood of Asian #humanity begins.

If Lake Manasarovar’s waters are revered and worth the long journey to Tibet, then its source, the Jiemayangzong Glacier, is even more magnificent and full of vitality. It deserves to be visited on your way to Mount Kailash and Lake Manasarovar. I fondly refer to it as the real source of life for humanity in Asia.

In addition to seeking out the source of the Brahmaputra River, I also visited the border between Tibet and Mustang region of Nepal at an elevation of 4,700 meters. Here, expansive pastures abound with thriving cattle and sheep, where lovely border Tibetan people and bustling Nepalese merchants coexist. Nestled deep in the Himalayas is a vibrant agricultural market. From this beautiful, vast, and fertile border pasture, the breathtaking views of the 8,091-meter #Annapurna snow peak and the undulating mountains are simply magnificent. This is a scenery that ordinary tourists seldom see, and I hope that when you travel to Mount Kailash in #Tibet, you will visit this place, which can become another unforgettable highlight of your journey to the western Tibetan Plateau.

Finally, I arrived in the town of Tarchen at the foot of Mount Kailash, where I will start my second #journey to touch the mt. Kailash since 2020.

#Strange#Stonehenge’ discovered in #US #lake that’s 5,000 years older than the #British landmark

Holley and his team uncovered sunken boats, cars and even a Civil war-era pier while surveying Lake Michigan's Grand Traverse Bay
There's much we may never know about our earliest ancestors, like why we started to walk upright and how we managed to create structures that seem to defy the engineering capabilities of the time.

Stonehenge remains one of these great mysteries, with experts around the world divided over why exactly the prehistoric monument was built.

Now, to add to this age-old confusion, it has emerged that a similarly enigmatic stone structure has been found beneath the waters of #Lake #Michigan in the US.

Not only that, but this #underwater creation is around 5,000 years older than its British counterpart.

The site was discovered in #2007 by a team of archaeologists led by Mark Holley, a professor of underwater #archaeology at Northwestern Michigan College.

Holley and his colleagues were conducting a survey of the lake bed when they chanced upon a series of large #stones, arranged in a #circular pattern, just off the coast of Traverse City, Michigan.
