This is the vibrant and beautiful Kangding Liuliu City

A must-visit healing scenic spot in Kangding where love songs come to life! 🌄 Snow-capped mountains, lakes, and yak herds—every snapshot is wallpaper-worthy! This is far from ordinary sightseeing; it's a soul-soothing journey~ 🌟 Must-See Highlights: ✅ Mugecuo Lake: A sacred lake at 3,780 meters, reflecting snow-capped mountains. Take a boat ride and wear bright colors for stunning photos! ✅ Honghai Grassland: Flowers bloom from June to September, with yaks grazing leisurely—perfect for picnics and camping ⛺️ (don’t forget sun protection at high altitude). ✅ Seven-Color Lake: The water changes hues with sunlight—visit before 10 AM for the best light. ✅ Azalea Gorge: A fairyland of blooming azaleas from May to June, with wooden walkways enhancing the magic. 🛏️ Accommodation Picks: 1️⃣ Inside the Scenic Area: Shangri-La Hotel (right by Mugecuo Lake), wake up to golden sunrise over the mountains. 2️⃣ Kangding City: Gesar Hotel (Tibetan-style, great value), 40 minutes from the scenic area. 🚗 Travel Tips: • Drive from Chengdu (~4.5 hours via convenient Yakang Expressway). • Or take a direct bus from Xinnanmen Station to Kangding (¥135). • Mandatory shuttle buses inside the scenic area (¥90/person). 🍖 Must-Try Foods: ▫️ Yak Meat Hotpot: Try "Snow Mountain Yak Meat Restaurant" for tender meat and rich broth. ▫️ Butter Tea: A local remedy for altitude sickness, best at Tibetan family-run spots. ▫️ Barley Pancakes: Heavenly with yogurt, especially from street grannies’ fresh batches. ⚠️ Pro Tips: • Check weather updates—the area may close after October due to snow. • Carry oxygen cans (¥20/can at city pharmacies) for high altitude. • Always ask before photographing Tibetan locals to avoid fees.
