Yarlung Tsangpo is highest river in world in Tibet.
The Yarlung Tsangpo runs through the heartland of Tibet from west to east.

Elevation: 5560 meters (18,241 feet) About two hours away from Yamdrok Lake. It isn't a big glacier, but the white glacier is spectacular from the highway, and it is close enough (about 300 yards) to walk to from the highway.
