Summer Family Trip to Meili Snow Mountain! Stay at Jixia Mountain Meili Hotel and Encounter the Golden Sunlight on the Snowy Peaks

In the height of summer, Meili Snow Mountain offers cool weather and fresh air, a perfect escape from the city’s heat and noise, making it a unique choice for families seeking a summer retreat and blessings. As the car approaches the snow mountain, the first sight of the thirteen peaks of Meili leaves even the children in awe of the majestic grandeur, as if all travel fatigue is healed by this breathtaking view. It is said that seeing the complete thirteen peaks of Meili requires great luck, and during our two-day stay, the snow mountain was clearly visible the entire time, adding a special touch to the family journey. 🌟 Destination: Jixia Mountain Meili Jixia Mountain · Meili SUNYATA Resort Hotel[Location]🌈 Navigation: Wunongding, Shengping Town, Deqin County, Diqing Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture, Yunnan Province 🏠 Family-Friendly Accommodation Experience ❶ Transportation Tips: Meili Snow Mountain is more than three hours by car from Shangri-La city. Families are recommended to drive themselves or hire a car for more flexibility and to adjust the pace according to the children’s condition; the hotel also offers airport transfers, though at a higher cost, so choose based on your budget. ❷ Room Types and Prices: Hotel room prices range from 1600+ to 6800+ RMB. Although the prices are relatively high, the unique snow mountain views and thoughtful family services are worth experiencing. It is recommended to choose rooms facing the snow mountain so children can enjoy the mountain scenery right from their rooms and greet the snow mountain upon waking. ❸ Dining Services: The hotel includes a delicate breakfast with a wide variety, including Chinese porridge, Western bread, fresh fruits, etc., catering to children’s tastes; dinner is à la carte, mainly featuring local specialties with average cost performance, so you may want to try Tibetan cuisine nearby with your children in advance. ❹ Viewing Highlights: The hotel’s 4th-floor public area is the best spot to view the snow mountain, especially the golden sunlight on the peaks at dawn. When the first ray of sunlight shines on the mountain tops, the golden glow gradually spreads, creating a stunning and sacred scene. Witnessing this natural wonder with your children here will leave a deep childhood memory. ❺ Surrounding Facilities: There is a free viewing platform near the hotel with an open view, suitable for walking with children. Along the way, you can enjoy Tibetan scenery, experience local customs, and children can learn about plateau-specific plants, enriching their knowledge. ❤️ Family Travel Tips ❶ Altitude Adaptation: Meili Snow Mountain is located on a plateau, so be mindful of altitude sickness when traveling with children. You can give children Rhodiola before departure, avoid strenuous activities on the first day after arrival to let the body gradually adapt; carry an oxygen bottle just in case. ❷ Weather and Clothing: Check the weather forecast in advance. Summer weather on the plateau is changeable, so prepare windproof, sun-protective, and warm clothing for children, such as light jackets, sun-protective clothes, hats, etc. Although it is summer, temperatures near the snow mountain are low with large temperature differences between day and night, so avoid children catching a cold. ❸ Road Conditions: The road from Shangri-La to Meili Snow Mountain is in good condition, accessible by sedan without obstacles. Families driving themselves need not worry about road conditions; drive carefully, enjoy the beautiful scenery along the way, and stop occasionally to let children rest and appreciate the views. Wishing every family a chance to encounter the stunning scenery of Meili Snow Mountain and create warm, unforgettable travel memories!
