To provide travelers better opportunity to enjoy the stunningly beautiful scenery on that way, nine viewing platforms have been set up. These include: Yuzhu Peak Station, Chumaer River, Tuotuo River, Buqiangge, Tanggula Mountain, Lake Namtso, Nagqu, Damshung Yambajan. The platforms are around 500-meter long and 1.25 meters high. On the platform, visitors can enjoy the surrounding views and take photos. Authorities have scheduled the trains so that passengers will be able to make use of the viewing platforms during daylight.

Yuzhu Peak Station is the first station along the train journey to Tibet.

The station is 4159 meters above sea level.

At this station, travelers can capture a great view of Yuzhu Peak and the Kunlun Mountains to the east and enjoy KeKexili's unique scenery to the west. Yuzhu Peak is one of the highest peaks in the Kunlun Mountains, the largest mountain range in China. The snow-capped peak towers against the blue sky and is amazingly beautiful.
