Reting Tsangpo
The Reting Tsangpo (Chinese: 热振河; pinyin: rè zhèn hé) is a river in the Tibet Autonomous Region of China. It is the main headwater of the Lhasa River. The river flows past Reting Monastery, founded in 1056. The terrain is geologically complex, with deeply eroded and faulted rocks that reflect the results of the collision of the Indian Plate with the Eurasian Plate.
