Day1-9: Xijiang Qianhu Miao Village, Bi Se Village, Xishuangbanna, Botanical Garden

Due to work reasons, I couldn't travel with my family from the first to ninth days, and met with my family in Kunming on the ninth day. Therefore, only photos taken by my family were posted from 1 to 9 days without detailed explanation.

The following are the various specialties to eat

Day10: Lijiang Dayan Ancient City 1 (altitude 2416 meters)

Day11: Lijiang Dayan Ancient City 2

One day when I didn't take pictures very carefully, I filled up the places I hadn't visited the day before. I went to Zhongyi Market next to the ancient city (in the south of the ancient city, where locals also shop) to buy local specialties and supplies on the road. After carrying a lot of things, I naturally didn't bother to take pictures.

Foreigners like it very much, so many shops on the street have signs in Chinese and English.

There are also white sand murals that have been painted for more than 300 years during the Ming and Qing Dynasties. I didn't see them at night. If I can go during the day, I must have a good look at them.

Day12: Lugu Lake (2690 meters above sea level)

Depart early in the morning to Lugu Lake! Take the eighteen bends of Lining, and then all the way to the winding mountain highway, up and down the mountain. I don't know how many mountains I have to climb to reach Lugu Lake. I can imagine that when there were no modern roads, Lugu Lake was mysterious and isolated from the world. How amazing!

The biggest advantage of this scenic spot is that when you drive into the scenic spot, you can stop and stay as you go, take photos and stay. In short, it is very comfortable. If you have a reasonable schedule, you must stay here for one night. It is said that the night is very beautiful and the stars are shining.

When you come out of the observation deck, you can start the mode of driving around the lake, and you can also rent a battery car to circle around the lake. The view B & B by the lake looks good!

If you think Lugu Lake is mysterious, visit the Musa Folk Museum and Yang Erche Namu's B & B and Museum. Unfortunately, it was a little late, so I didn't visit it.

Half of Lugu Lake is located in Yunnan and half in Sichuan. However, if you want to go north into Tibetan areas, you can only return to Lijiang and then north. This way, the road is easy to walk. Although Lugu Lake also has a road sign to Daocheng, locals rarely walk. Because the road conditions are not good, tourists 'cars are generally unable to drive through. Moreover, it seems to be close, but it actually takes time. This gives us the idea of taking a shortcut. In fact, even navigation cannot guide this shortcut. It's better to return to Lijiang obediently and take the route from Tiger Leaping Gorge to Shangri-La to Daocheng.

In the evening, I returned to Lijiang and lived in Shuhe Ancient Town.

Day13: Tiger Leaping Gorge, Songzan Forest Temple, Shangri-La

In the early morning, I first played with the innkeeper's cat. I left Shuhe Ancient Town and headed for Tiger Leaping Gorge. Here, people and cats have stories. I chatted with the innkeeper to learn about the people and stories of Lijiang. It was also part of the trip.

The Tiger Leaping Gorge (Lijiang Section) is more suitable for parent-child travel. A smooth plank road has been built here, and the drop from the parking lot to the riverside is not high. 12 hours are enough to play. The Tiger Leaping Gorge in the Shangri-La section is suitable for outdoor hiking, which is relatively challenging both on the road and physical strength. Young people can consider trying it. If traveling with the elderly and children, it is recommended to play the Tiger Leaping Gorge in the Lijiang section.

After visiting the Tiger Leaping Gorge, head straight to Shangri-La.

It was still early. Before arriving at the ancient city of Dukezong, I went to Songzanlin Temple. It is the largest Tibetan Buddhist temple in Yunnan Province and one of the famous large temples in Kang District. It is also the center of Yellow Religion in Sichuan and Yunnan. It has a decisive position in the entire Tibetan area and is known as the "Little Potala Palace." Songzanlin Temple is built against a mountain and looks like an ancient castle. It integrates Tibetan plastic art and is also known as the "Tibetan Art Museum".

This place is very worth visiting, so leave it to everyone to explore in detail! No matter how much you see, it is better to experience it yourself.

In the evening, we settled in the ancient city of Dukezong.

The ancient city of Dukezong was built in accordance with the ideal country of Shambhala in the Buddhist scriptures. The ancient city is built along the mountains, with uneven roads. It is paved with some old stones that are old and paved on the natural terrain. There are still deep horseshoe marks left on the stone road. It is a token of time left by the horse gangs of those years.

D14: Pudacuo National Forest Park, Daocheng

Half an hour's drive from Dukezong Ancient City. Since the scenic area is partially open, the tour time is about half a day, which is very close.

Not all Pudacuo National Park is open. After entering the gate, you have to take the bus from the scenic area. It takes about an hour to get off at Shudu Lake. Other areas are not open and can only be viewed by car. In order to reduce tourists 'damage to the environment and restore the original environment in the past, they are open in different regions.

Pudacuo then went straight to Daocheng Aden. It takes about 6 hours. The locals are actually familiar with the road, so it will take 4 hours. But for safety reasons, follow the navigation. It is already night when you arrive in Daocheng. Don't forget to stop the car and look up at the sky on the way. The stars are quite shocking.

Day15: Daocheng Aden

Tickets for scenic spots are naturally not cheap. In terms of cost performance, they are really very low. No matter how beautiful the scenery is, it requires sufficient physical strength and perseverance to see it. Therefore, if you want to go, you must not read too much strategies. Bring money, food and water, and wear warm clothes. It's good to start. If you read too many strategies, you may not have the courage to start.

You still need to take a bus from the scenic area to enter the scenic area. It feels like you are wandering in the mountains for about two hours. There is a radio explanation on the bus to take you to appreciate the three great sacred mountains of Daocheng Aden. The location where the bus gets off is the short-term tour route. On the front line of Chonggu Temple and Pearl Sea, you will continue to change to a battery car and get off at Luorong Niuchang for the long tour.

At 4:30, I am ready to go down the mountain. When you come to Daocheng Aden, you must be clear about your physical strength. If you want to play thoroughly, you must stay in the scenic area for one night. Make arrangements for short-term tours and long-term tours for one day. Old people and children who are not physically strong can really play songs. Just Chonggu Temple and Pearl Sea. If you have pursuits, you must come for a long-term trip. Friends who come to this scenic spot with average physical conditions must do what they can.

However, high reflection really has nothing to do with physical fitness. Big men and weak girls may have high reflection. On the contrary, children have strong adaptability, and there are also great gods carrying three to five bags of photographic equipment (many middle-aged and elderly people), I really admire it!

I think the most beautiful season in Daocheng and Aden is after May. I went to this scene in April, but it was still a little desolate. It went in May and June in spring, and in autumn and 90th in September. There are also many sunny days, and the scenery is naturally beautiful. Summer is the rainy season, and the mountain roads are muddy and difficult to walk. In winter, the snow closes the mountain.

Day17: National Highway 318, Litang, Kangding

Day18: Hailuogou, Mianyang

Day19: Mianyang, Xi'an

Chenglou Museum, Hui Street,

Day20: Xi'an, go home

Forest of Steles, Big Wild Goose Pagoda, Terracotta Warriors Museum, steamed pork with rice flour, Shaozi noodles, Laotongguan Roujiamo, small crispy pork

Summary:

1. The most beautiful seasons in Sichuan, Tibet, Yunnan and Tibet must be summer and autumn!!! The advantage of spring is that fewer people are at ease, but you can't see the most beautiful seasons.

2. The 20-day trip is still too stressful, and most places cannot be thoroughly explored. Therefore, planning before travel is actually not very important (basic strategies still need to be available, but time calculation must be generous). The important thing is that there is enough time to flexibly adjust during the trip.
