Daocheng Yading is back to its original beauty. Sisters who haven't been there yet, I recommend you go.

📷｜Daocheng Yading in early autumn🏔️ Altitude: 4,000+ meters, temperature: below zero! The weather was as good as our luck! Daocheng Yading was sunny and snowy! It was so beautiful I cried. 😭 We entered the park at 9 am and returned at 5 pm. It was a perfect day. ✅ We set off from Chengdu and passed Honghaizi, Gedilamu, Yuzixi, Xinduqiao, Litang, Rabbit Mountain, and Shangri-La. It took us 2 days to reach our destination. Our guide said that you need luck to see the beautiful scenery on this route. Apparently, we were lucky! 📍Half of the long route: 1️⃣ Tourist Center to Zhaguanbeng (🚌 about 1 hour by bus) 2️⃣ Zhaguanbeng to Chonggu Temple (🚶🏻‍♀️ about 25 minutes on foot) 3️⃣ Chonggu Temple to Shengshui Lake to Luorong Pasture (we recommend taking the electric car 🚎 about 25 minutes per stop, round-trip 💰CNY 80 per person) 4️⃣ Luorong Pasture to Gongga Lake (🚶🏻‍♀️ about 45 minutes on foot) 📍Short route: 5️⃣ Gongga Lake to Luorong Pasture (🚶🏻‍♀️ about 45 minutes on foot) 6️⃣ Luorong Pasture to Chonggu Temple (electric car 🚎 about 45 minutes) 7️⃣ Chonggu Temple to Pearl Lake (🚶🏻‍♀️ about 1 hour on foot) 8️⃣ Pearl Lake to Zhaguanbeng (🚶🏻‍♀️ about 40 minutes on foot) ⚠️⚠️ We recommend entering the scenic area before 9 am for this route. ⚠️⚠️ ⚠️⚠️ The last bus is at 18:00 in the off-season and 19:00 in the peak season. ⚠️⚠️ 🎒 Preparation: 👕 Clothing: We brought trekking poles and a windbreaker. Comfortable long pants and sneakers are enough. It's best to carry a backpack so you can carry more and free your hands and shoulders. ‼️ Be sure to wear a sun hat, preferably a windproof one, or your scalp will get sunburned! And sunglasses! The sun is very bright up there! ⚠️ Summary: 1️⃣ Many sisters are afraid of altitude sickness, but there's no need to worry! Don't run or jump around. Stop and rest if you feel unwell and take some oxygen. You'll adapt quickly! 2️⃣ Another thing to note is that there are automatic snack machines in the scenic area, so you don't need to bring too much. Just bring some snacks, a bottle of water, trekking poles, and a small bag! 3️⃣ We recommend wearing outdoor clothing and sneakers in the scenic area. Wear a sun hat (or use an umbrella) to avoid sunburn. 6️⃣ I recommend wearing a windbreaker and pants. They're convenient (and look good in photos), warm (with a liner!!!), and waterproof (you won't need a raincoat if it drizzles). 7️⃣ There are 2 stops for the sightseeing bus when you leave the scenic area. One is at Yading Village (get off here if you booked a homestay in the scenic area) and the other is at the entrance. Pay attention and don't get off at the wrong stop! ✅ The attractions we visited during the 5-day trip: Kangding, Zheduo Mountain, Xinduqiao, Daocheng Yading, Siguniang Mountain, Litang, Moshigongyuan, Honghaizi, Yuzixi... Every place was stunning!
