Shantsa

Shantsa lies among the lakes and high mountains of southern Changtang. The snow-covered Shentsa Jekang range, a branch of the Gangdise, divides the district, while Gering Lake receives the waters of the Shentsa and Baru rivers. To the north lies the extensive Selin lake basin. Between these waters and peaks spread the high grazing lands of the Tibetan plateau.
