Some information may have been translated by Google Translate
Yubeng Village, a Tibetan village at the foot of the Goddess Peak of the Meri Snow Mountain, is divided into two villages that are close to each other. Yubeng Village is situated deep in the mountains, away from the markets and towns. There is little transport but the folk customs are simple and honest. Therefore, it is known as the epitome of true Shangri-La. The waterfall on the hill next to Yubeng Village has always been a holy place of pilgrimage for Tibetan Buddhists, and it is also a must to pass through the Meri Snow Mountain.

A Hidden World Beyond the Jade Dragon Snow MountainA Hidden World Beyond the Jade Dragon Snow Mountain After being deeply impressed by the Jade Dragon Snow Mountain in Lijiang, I embarked on a journey to Yubeng, where even more stunning natural beauty lies hidden. Passing through Shaxi, I witnessed the historical traces of the Tea Horse Road. Outside the car window, the snowy expanse of Napahai, a fleeting glimpse of the Songzanlin Monastery, and the Lancang River raging incessantly through the gorge. Crossing the Baima Snow Mountain, a pristine white landscape unfolded before my eyes. 🌄 The Winter Scroll of Yubeng Village East of Meili, at the foot of the sacred mountain, lies Yubeng Village, where in winter, the wooden houses are neatly scattered, smoke from cooking fires intertwines with the sound of cowbells, from the golden sunrise over the mountain to the bluesy twilight, the golden roof of the temple reveals its mystery in tranquility. 🏨 Wildtalk Hotel: A Warm Haven Checking into the Wildtalk Hotel was an anticipation of my trip. Outside was a world of ice and snow, while inside was as warm as spring, with attentive service that made one feel at home. In the morning, there was no need to rush, waking up at 8 o'clock, enjoying breakfast in the lobby while admiring the magnificent view of the sunlit golden mountain. 📝 Yubeng Travel Tips Direct flights to Diqing Shangri-La or Lijiang. The high-speed train from Lijiang to Shangri-La only takes 1.5 hours. It is recommended to stay in Shangri-La for one night to avoid missing the vehicle to Yubeng. Take a business car from Shangri-La to Xidang Village parking lot, the journey takes about 4-5 hours, and the cost is about 600-700 yuan/car. The Yubeng scenic area ticket is 55 yuan/person, you can choose to take an off-road vehicle in the scenic area or hike in (about 8 hours one way). The round-trip tickets from Yubeng Village are 260 yuan and 200 yuan respectively, and the off-road vehicle may stop running in extreme weather. The Yubeng scenic area stops selling tickets after 17:00 daily. The breakfast at Wildtalk Hotel starts at 8:00, which is the best time to watch the sunlit golden mountain.fane_9405
YubengYubeng, hiking. (The so-called 'body in hell, eyes in heaven' Yubeng) Yubeng Village Newbies (who lack exercise in the office every day) are advised to just take the route of the Divine Waterfall + Ice Lake (without climbing the mountain), which is enough. If you do go up the mountain, it's really best not to carry too much—two bottles of water and some snacks (like chocolate) should suffice, as carrying too much is truly unbearable. Pay attention to keeping warm; the hike can be quite challenging for newbies, and it's really cold up there, so wear a good jacket with a liner. The Divine Waterfall takes about 5-6 hours (the path is equipped with steps and stone slabs), while the Ice Lake takes 6-8 hours (the muddy path is even harder to walk on after rain). Yubeng is beautiful, but it's also really dirty, with trash everywhere. Please do not litter and carry your trash with you until you find a bin to dispose of it!! This article is not a guide for newbies, experts please don't criticizeExcursionEnigmas1

Hiking in Yubeng VillageWent to a small village in Yunnan called Yubeng. It was such a magical place to relax and hike within the Tibetan Mountain Range. I will most definitely be visiting again and I enjoyed every moment I spent here. The hikes were beautiful and it was so surreal to be able to hike within these Mountains. I never thought in my lifetime I’d be immersed in snowy mountain as big as these. I highly recommend this trip to anyone who loves hiking and being out in nature. Even if you don’t enjoy hiking it’s nice to just spend time in the cozy village at the local cafes and enjoying the views. Getting there was not the easiest or the quickest but it is worth it. You have to travel to Shangri-la and then take a bus to Deqen. It’s quite a long ride but beautiful views along the ways. Then stay at any of the hotels/hostels near the Meili Snow mountains when you get off the bus. You then stay over night and wake up bright and early for the sunrise. After that there will be cars waiting to bring travelers to Yubeng. You take a car and then arrive just below the Yubeng village. You buy a ticket into the village and then a jeep will come and pick you up to take you into the village. #yunnantravel #travelchina #snowmountainK_travels5
I captured the photo of a lifetime in YubengMy first-ever hiking trip was dedicated to Yubeng. I have longed to visit Yubeng for a very long time, and since 2019, I have finally realized my dream of hiking there. It took a whole day to travel from Lijiang to Yubeng Village, and by the time I checked into the Upper Yubeng hostel, it was already six in the evening. The plan was to take two routes: the first day was Upper Yubeng to the Ice Lake; the second day was Upper Yubeng to Lower Yubeng to the Sacred Waterfall. 1️⃣ The hike to the Ice Lake was exhilarating with many steep slopes. We set off at 8:30 in the morning and successfully reached the summit before one in the afternoon. On the way down, we 'slid' all the way; 2️⃣ The second day's hike to the Sacred Waterfall was much easier compared to the Ice Lake route. Unfortunately, it has been snowing in Yubeng for the past few days, and we couldn't reach the top of the waterfall due to an avalanche. Therefore, we only made it to the base camp before turning back. However, the snowy scenery of the Sacred Waterfall route was much more spectacular than that of the Ice Lake, and it was also particularly suitable for snowball fights. Hanging prayer flags and performing the Sarlonba were all done on the Sacred Waterfall route. Each has its own charm, but the path from Lower Yubeng to Upper Yubeng was really difficult to walk, with steep slopes all the way . The original plan for the third day was to go down the mountain by off-road vehicle, but continuous snowfall in Yubeng had blocked the mountain roads. So we hiked from Upper Yubeng to Lower Yubeng, took a ride to the starting point of Ninong, and hiked eight kilometers down the mountain. It was indeed a pleasant surprise. The Ninong Grand Canyon is also very beautiful. The downhill was too shaky, and the last kilometer was completed entirely by willpower.CODY MENDEZ
Autumn in Yubeng is rarely rainy, making it perfect for trekkingThe climate in Yubeng Village is pleasant, and the scenery is beautiful. It is a place that combines the Golden Sunshine on the Meili Snow Mountain, colorful forests, icy lakes, waterfalls, and a mysterious village all in one. Here, you can hear the white noise of nature and the sound of your own heart❤️. Every day in autumn is beautiful, and this autumn is worth trekking for. 🌟Semi-self-driving tour 5-day itinerary: day1: Dali - Shangri-La (Songzanlin Monastery, Ancient Town) day2: Shangri-La - Meili Snow Mountain (Wunongding) day3: Meili Snow Mountain - Yubeng day4: Yubeng day5: Yubeng - Return trip 💴Ticket prices: Feilai Temple Viewing Platform: 40 yuan (valid for three days). Yubeng Scenic Area: 55 yuan. ⛺Tourist check-in: 1⃣️Meili Snow Mountain: At sunrise, the peaks are illuminated, dreamy and enchanting. Find a favorite hotel🏨, and admire the spectacular view of the thirteen peaks of Meili from the hotel. For viewing the snow mountain, I recommend Wunongding more. 2⃣️Yubeng Village: A village known as the residence of immortals, without the noise of the city, only blue skies, snow mountains, primeval forests, and fearless little squirrels🐿️. 3⃣️Songzanlin Monastery: Known as the 'Little Potala Palace', it is the largest Tibetan Buddhist monastery in Yunnan and is worth visiting for its spectacular sights. 🌟Travel tips: 1⃣️Be sure to try trekking in Yubeng, remember when climbing a mountain to lift your hips before your feet, I relied solely on a walking stick and a baseball cap, braving the wind and rain with willpower, believe in yourself. 2⃣️Meili Snow Mountain is at a high altitude, you can choose to rest in a hotel for one night to enjoy the beauty of the snow mountain. Avoid strenuous exercise, and it is not recommended to take a bath on the first night. 3⃣️Friends who are afraid of altitude sickness should drink Rhodiola one week in advance and prepare oxygen in advance. 4⃣️Bring some high-calorie food: chocolate, beef jerky, etc., stop and replenish at any time when you are tired from trekking. 5⃣️Places to watch the Golden Sunshine on the Meili Snow Mountain include: rooftops of various homestays and hotels, Wunongding viewing platform, Feilai Temple scenic area, all are possible. 6⃣️When self-driving to Yubeng, you need to transfer to a local off-road vehicle to go to Upper and Lower Yubeng, private cars are not allowed into the village.FashionForwardFinds
Yubeng Village Guide | Experience the primitive Tibetan ancient village1⃣️Transportation🚗 Depart from Lijiang by bus to Deqin Feilai Temple. Stay at Feilai Temple for one night to wait for the sunrise on Meili Snow Mountain. The next day, share a ride to Xidang Village, then take the off-road vehicle in the village to enter the village. When booking a hotel or homestay, check whether it is in Upper Yubeng or Lower Yubeng. Just buy a ticket directly to Upper Yubeng or Lower Yubeng. The entrance fee to the village is 260/person for Lower Yubeng and 200/person for leaving Lower Yubeng. Going to Upper Yubeng will be a little cheaper. 2⃣️Preparation of items📦 Try not to bring suitcases unless you stay at Wild Language. Wild Language has an off-road vehicle to pick us up at our drop-off point. The village does not allow other hotels and homestays to have off-road vehicles, so after taking the village's off-road vehicle to the hotel, you still need to walk, especially uphill. Just prepare a backpack with necessities and clothes. My suitcase was severely worn out after a trip to Yubeng Village. 3⃣️Whether to hike into the village Many people choose to hike into the village, which takes an average of more than six hours. But in my opinion, the scenery along the hiking route into the village is not very good, the scenery is quite monotonous, and there is a lot of dust brought up by off-road vehicles on the dirt road. You can save your energy for the classic hiking routes after entering the village. It's a pity to waste time on roads with little scenery. 4⃣️Food and accommodation🥣 There are many hotels and homestays to choose from in the village, but don't expect too much from the environment in the village. It's a primitive village with many horses and cows, and a lot of animal excrement on the roads. Because transportation is inconvenient, supplies in the village are scarce and prices are relatively high. 5⃣️Photo spot selection📷 It mainly depends on how many days you stay and whether you hike. I went to the Big Lawn (a popular check-in spot) to take photos from noon to afternoon on the first day. There are snack bars, coffee shops, small bars, and Shaxian snacks, etc. The atmosphere in the small bar at night is still good. The second day I chose the Divine Waterfall route for hiking. Wearing a storm coat for hiking and taking photos is very photogenic. High-altitude hiking is very tiring, especially the Divine Waterfall route is uphill all the way. If you stay for a long time, you can choose the Ice Lake, Divine Lake, Cordyceps line, etc., but be sure to measure your strength and go with a companion. The Divine Waterfall route is suitable for those staying in Lower Yubeng, and other routes are closer to Upper Yubeng. 6⃣️Hiking selection❗️ For beginners, it is recommended to take the Divine Waterfall route. The uphill climb in the later stage is not easy, but overall it is quite friendly. The Divine Waterfall is actually a sacred place for Tibetans. There are prayer flags all over the mountains. But now the weather has frozen the Divine Waterfall. The Divine Waterfall route is a mature route that combines religious color and scenery, and the whole route is a cement road. Other routes are relatively difficult, especially the Cordyceps line. When choosing these routes, be sure to do your homework or form a group. I personally think that the difficulty of hiking in Daocheng is greater than the Divine Waterfall route. If you can accept the difficulty of hiking in Daocheng, you can choose a more difficult route in Yubeng Village.ASHLYN TYLER

The most beautiful season has arrived, and the brave are the first to enjoy Yubeng!"Paradise is to the left, Yubeng to the right" This ancient Tibetan village deep in the Meili Snow Mountain is a secret deep in Yunnan~ 📍Located within the territory of Deqin County, Diqing Prefecture, Yunnan Province, at the foot of Meili Snow Mountain, it exists at an altitude of about 3000m or more, and here it is divided into Upper Yubeng and Lower Yubeng Why choose autumn for Yubeng? From the end of October, Yubeng officially enters the dry season Clear skies are the norm, with only a few days of cloudy rain ✅No trouble from the rains, no muddy mountain roads ✅You can witness the autumn colors blooming all over the mountains ✅And there's a very high chance of seeing the golden sunrise on the mountain and the starry sky 🏠Accommodation: ✨Both Yubengs are made of wood and are Tibetan-style houses, with generally basic accommodation conditions. ✨I personally suggest staying one night at Feilai Temple before entering Yubeng, no need to get up early, and you can see Meili Snow Mountain from the hotel, with a very good angle. 🏃Main hiking routes 1. The Sacred Waterfall route (13.6km) Starting from Lower Yubeng, the whole path is cement and stone steps, friendly to beginners, the waterfall is spectacular during the rainy season, and the colorful prayer flags are a highlight 2. The Ice Lake route (14km) Starting from Upper Yubeng, you will pass through sea buckthorn and fir forests, pastures, streams, and rock piles, with beautiful scenery in summer and average in winter 3. The Caterpillar Fungus route (18km) Starting from Upper Yubeng, the most beautiful route, surrounded by snow-capped mountains on a mountain ridge Directly facing the shock of the Goddess Peak 4. The Sacred Lake route (10km) Starting from Lower Yubeng, the whole way is uphill and heart-pounding, with an altitude of up to 4600 5. The Ninnong route (14km) A must-pass route out of Yubeng, passing through forests, valleys, and cliffs 🚩Must-visit attractions 1⃣Yubeng Village A village called the residence of immortals, without the noise of the city, only blue skies, snow mountains, primeval forests, and fearless little squirrels. 2⃣Ice Lake "The heart of Kawagarbo," formed by the melting waters of the snow mountain, the lake water is deep green like jade. 3⃣Feilai Temple Directly facing the thirteen peaks of Meili Snow Mountain, it is an excellent spot to watch the golden sunrise on the mountain. Catching the first ray of golden light on the snow mountain before sunrise can bring good luck for the whole year. 4⃣Songzanlin Monastery "The Little Potala Palace," the NO.1 Tibetan Buddhist temple in Yunnan by scale. Walking around the lake at the temple's entrance, Lamuyangcuo, can unlock the hidden position of the temple's reflection in the lake! 5⃣Napa Lake "The tear of Shangri-La," with the unique scenery of "winter sea and summer meadow," in winter the rising waters form "Napa Lake," and in summer the receding rainwater turns into "Yila Grassland." 💥Tips: 1. The ultraviolet rays are strong in the plateau area, so be sure to do enough sun protection! 2. To prevent altitude sickness: start taking Rhodiola rosea capsules a week in advance/highland Yubeng village peace, do not bathe when you first arrive at the highland, and do not engage in strenuous exercise. 3. Prepare enough vitamin tablets, energy bars, and beef jerky to replenish energy in time during hiking. 4. Friends who are hiking for the first time should try to set out early, as the mountain roads are complex to avoid walking at night. 5. You can prepare some cash as some places along the way may have poor signal. 6. The best time to see the golden sunrise on the mountain is from late October to March of the following year, remember to check the weather forecast before you go. 7. Clothing recommendation: waterproof jacket, fleece, quick-dry shirt, quick-thousand pants, and storm pants.ALLIE PEREZ1
Live in the presentThere are many secrets in Yunnan, and Yubeng is one of them. Paradise is on the left, Yubeng on the right. This is about the ancient Tibetan village deep in the Meili Snow Mountain. 'The road to Yubeng often collapses, so it is isolated from the world most of the time. The more rugged the mountain road, the more magnificent the scenery waiting for you. But Yubeng's 'meeting' is never easy, hiking is the only truth it recognizes. From forests to lakes, to the sacred waterfall of the snow-capped mountains, the harsh sunlight of the plateau invades without mercy, and the altitude keeps rising to steal your oxygen. 'But believe me, even so, you won't want to give up. Because the holy water of Kabo is ahead, and the silhouette of the Goddess Peak will embrace you affectionately. On this road to Yubeng, I am very curious, for example, those sutras, if they flutter in the wind thousands of times, whether those prayers have also been recited thousands of times. Hiking Yubeng is not to conquer nature, but to conquer oneself. As long as it is growth, there must be a witness from bravery to tenacity. As long as it is a traveler, there must be the devotion to patiently wait for the clouds to open.MAGDALENA BRYANT2

a beautiful Tibetan village in the northwest of Yunnan. up close view of the snow capped mountains.
In fact, I don’t like hiking much. I didn’t experience it very well in Daocheng before, but I have arrived at Feilai Temple. Yubeng is right next to it. After reading the introduction, the Shenpu Line seems to be able to walk around. This time, because of the long adaptation time, there is almost no high reaction to Yubeng. But the last 900 meters is still very panting, ten steps and twenty steps, but in fact, the front horse farm and the cedar forest are very comfortable, not to arrive, just walk in front 3.4km can also come, of course, the village off-road vehicle is really expensive, like a roller coaster, the handle must be pulled down feeling
Yubeng is also too beautiful, although the traffic is not convenient, but it is worth seeing the beautiful scenery. Now the conditions to go to Yubeng are getting better and better, and the infrastructure is gradually improving.
Good luck, in Yubeng Village for a few days is good weather, very beautiful and worth going again.
The beauty of Yubeng really needs to be experienced on the ground. I just went to the waterfall and looked forward to the second brush of the ice lake. Friends who have been there said that the scenery of the ice lake is really beautiful.
If you want to go to Yubeng hiking, you need to know that this is not a wild ride, nor an autumn tour, this is a hard journey to cleanse the soul, but also a journey to the Holy Spirit, he can be anything, after all, that is heaven! 🔴 Tips are higher altitude, according to your physical conditions, choose whether to take Rhodiola in advance, try not to exercise strenuously during the hiking process, walk slowly, while feeling the beauty of the body, while also adapting to high anti-reverse! Butter tea is also a certain help to high anti-reverse. 🔶 Notes 1. Please respect the local folk customs and folk customs, referring to a mountain peak in Shenshan must have five fingers and hands and hearts upward, and then point to the target; 2. To the waterfall, the baptism must have two palms together to circle the waterfall three times to find peace with yourself and your family, and then play a bottle of water at the water mouth on the right side of the waterfall; 3. On the way to the Yubeng natural holy land, you should see the white tower, the Wild Goose Pagoda, Manidui and so on should walk clockwise; 4. It is not suitable to act alone in the Yubeng scenic spot, please guide the road safer, or follow the leader; 5, riding should consciously abide by the lottery rules, on the way can not change the horse riding, riding fee to the end and then pay; 6. When the rain is clear in the Yubeng Scenic Area, the best location for taking pictures is at Nanzongxukou, Yubeng Shangcun Piaopiao Inn and the Hiker's House. The spring and summer snow mountain Rizhao Jinshan is at 6:30 in the morning and autumn and winter at 7:30 in the morning. ✅ How to play the best Yubeng? From Lijiang to Yubeng, you need to enter many times to transfer the car, more tossing, and the road is not very good, not suitable for self-driving, friends who want to come to Yubeng to experience travel, it is recommended to contact professional local small package groups, round-trip people pick up and drop off, relatively easy, The price/performance ratio and safety will be much higher. Small package groups like the following route (within 10 people), generally around 2300 in Yubeng, the price/performance ratio and safety are good ✅ Reference itinerary D1 → Lijiang D2 (driving 360KM) Lijiang → Yangtze River First Bay → Yi Village "Haba Snow Mountain" → Shangri-La → Jinshajiang Moon Bay → Benzilan ~ Baima Snow Mountain ~ Exit (4292 meters above sea level) → Meili Snow Mountain (Feilai Temple) D3 (Hiking 18KM) Feilai Temple Observation Deck ("Rizhao Jinshan" Beautiful View) → Snow Mountain Grand Canyon → Lancang River Bridge → Xidang Village → Shangyu Beng D4 (Hiking 14KM) Shangyubeng → Shenpu → Shangyubeng round trip D5 (walking 16KM) Shangyubeng → Xiaonong Base Camp → Binghu → Shangyubeng round trip D6 (walking 16KM) Yubeng Village → Xidang Village (nylon out) → Feilai Temple → Baima Snow Mountain Lukou (4292 meters above sea level) → Benzilan → Shangri-La D7 (drive 180km) Shangri-La → Dukezong Ancient City → Tiger Leaping Gorge → Lijiang → Go home
