Seamless Shangri-La Tour - Comprehensive Nanny-level Guide

🚄 Transportation The high-speed train departs from Lijiang at 8 am, and with only a 49 yuan ticket, you can seamlessly reach Shangri-La. After leaving the station, take the No. 1 bus (2 yuan fare) directly to the north gate of Dukezong Ancient City, seamlessly connecting your journey. 🏠 Accommodation Choose to stay near the south or north gate of Dukezong Ancient City, not only is it convenient for transportation, but it is also close to Songzanlin Temple and Napahai, making your trip easier. Remember, don't choose a hotel in the center of the ancient city, dragging luggage on the slate road is not an easy task. 👗 Tibetan Costume Rental Experience There are many shops in the ancient city that rent Tibetan clothes. Choose the style you like, it is recommended to book in advance the night before, so there are more choices, and go directly to the store the next day to create your Tibetan style! The off-season price is 68 yuan per day, remember to bring your own false eyelashes, they will not be provided for free here. 🏰 Dukezong Ancient City Want to take a photo in front of the world's largest prayer wheel? Then go to Turtle Mountain Park during the day, the photo effect at night is not so ideal. At 7:30 in the evening, the Guozhuang dance begins on time at the Sifang Square (remember to search for 'Sifang Square', not 'Sifang Street'), don't miss this cultural feast. 🕊️ Songzanlin Temple Online tickets are only available in packages (90 yuan), but you can actually bring your ID card to the offline window, only buy tickets (55 yuan) and the uphill bus (10 yuan), which can save 25 yuan. After the tour, take the No. 3 bus directly from the temple gate back to the ancient city. Don't believe those people who take you to Napahai for 10 yuan at the gate, they might take you to a private horse farm and let you ride a horse to consume. 🌊 Napahai Napahai and Yila Prairie are the same place, but the name changes with the seasons. The lake tour is highly recommended for self-driving. Napahai is a free attraction, no tickets are needed, navigate to 'Ring Lake Road', play clockwise, and the scenery is beautiful all the way. But be aware that the water road can only be experienced during the summer flood season. The average price for renting an electric car around the lake is 80 yuan, remember to ask clearly about the battery life and whether it can go around Napahai. The wind in Napahai in December is very strong, remember to wear a hat and keep warm. Want to hold a lamb for a photo? That costs about 20 yuan. Want to ride a horse? Remember to bargain! Route A is 160 yuan, Route B is 128 yuan, and the horse riding project in the scenic area is no longer open after 18:00. 🌿 Pudacuo You must go to Pudacuo early, otherwise there really isn't enough time. From entering the scenic area to leaving the scenic area, it is recommended to reserve 4 hours. The scenic area bus takes about 20 minutes to Shudu Lake, and the return trip needs to gather 25 people before it can leave. Now there are not many people in the off-season, but the scenic area closes at 4 pm. Shudu Lake has a 3.3km walk, Bita Lake has a 2km walk, and wearing sports shoes is the wisest choice. 🏔️ Meili Snow Mountain November to March of the following year is the best season to watch Meili Snow Mountain. Choose a hotel near Feilai Temple for accommodation. From Shangri-La Station, there are direct buses to Deqin-Feilai Temple on the roadside, the fare is 80 yuan, very convenient. After watching the sunrise over the golden mountain of Meili, those who like hiking can take a bus to Yubeng next to Feilai Temple, and those who are obsessed with glaciers can go to Mingyong Glacier. 🏞️ Balagezong I personally do not recommend going to Balagezong, the tickets are expensive, the transportation is inconvenient, and the cost performance is not high. 🍴 Shangri-La Restaurant Recommendation Ama's butter tea, Shunshun Snacks, Caisheng Restaurant, Jingjing's Mani Stone, these restaurants are all the taste of Shangri-La, not to be missed. Take this guide and make your Shangri-La trip as comfortable as at home, enjoying every beautiful moment!🎉🎉🎉
