Touring Daocheng Yading scenic area is divided into long and short routes. 🔗
🟡Long route: Ticket office → Take a 70-minute sightseeing bus → Zhaguanbeng → Chonggu Temple → Luorong Pasture → Ride a horse at Shengshengya (not many horse-riding tickets available before 9 am, might not get one) → Milk Sea (surrounded by snow mountains) → Five-Color Sea
🔵Short route: Visitor Center → Take a bus → Zhaguanbeng → Chonggu Temple → Pearl Sea
Precautions:
🔵Make sure to arrive at the scenic area by 9:00, or it's easy to miss the return bus!
🟡At the entrance of the scenic area, take a bus, and after about an hour of walking, you can reach Chonggu Temple; it takes about 20 minutes to take a sightseeing bus to Luorong Pasture, and the round trip costs 80 yuan!
🔵Generally speaking, it takes 1.5 days to visit both routes, but physically fit tourists can finish in one day, depending on individual physical condition.
🟡The altitude in Western Sichuan is high and the terrain is complex. It's normal to experience altitude sickness, such as dizziness and headache, when first arriving on the plateau. Don't be overly anxious; it usually gets better the next day. Drinking butter tea and glucose can help alleviate the symptoms.
🔵Don't engage in strenuous exercise in high-altitude areas, and avoid bathing or washing your hair in the first two days to prevent altitude sickness.
🟡If you catch a cold, reschedule decisively, as it's not advisable to enter high altitudes with a cold.
🔵The temperature difference between day and night is significant, even in June and July, so it's necessary to carry a thicker coat.
Daocheng Yading, a place worth visiting time and again, are you ready to embrace the beauty there?
Not bad, exercise, this season's scenery is more general, 20 kilometers back and forth, the road is OK. The innermost is snowing, you can see animals, there is a supply station, the difficulty is not very big, and there is no oxygen shortage.
Maybe this season, the scenery is more general, the scenic staff service is good, the consumption is not high, and the prices are more reasonable. This season, the scenery is generally dry grass, climbing the mountain is very good, walking to the mountain is still snowing. Love to walk very well
The scenery is good, but it depends on luck, the weather is not good and you can't see anything so far. Tickets are not cheap, because I bought a sightseeing car + ticket, and I have to buy tickets again to Luorong Niuchang. Two large and one small tickets + fare calculated to be close to 1000... The altitude is really high, no matter whether there is a high reaction before, bring an oxygen cylinder, be prepared.
