The same camera as Li Xian, check-in for life photos at Tiger Leaping Gorge

Tiger Leaping Gorge is divided into Upper, Middle and Lower Tiger Leaping Gorge. The camera I took to check in is the Dazed Stone Life Photo Check-in Point at Middle Tiger Leaping Gorge. On our way to Lijiang and Shangri-La by car, we hiked a short section of Zhonghutiao: Photos of Teacher Zhang's Inn Life. • Navigate from Lijiang to [Teacher Zhang's Inn in Tiger Leaping Gorge, Shangri-La]. • We also went to Xiahutiao, which is the Tiger Leaping Gorge scenic area. April is the dry season, so there is nothing to see in the scenic area and we have to queue. After visiting the scenic area for an hour, we went to [Teacher Zhang's Inn]. If you want to go directly to Teacher Zhang's Inn, you will meet staff on the way who will ask you where you are going. You must say you are going to Baishuitai and you can go directly! ! If you are going to Tiger Leaping Gorge, you will be asked to turn left and go uphill to queue. • Start hiking from Teacher Zhang’s Inn. The Zhonghutiao section is maintained by several villages, so a maintenance fee of 15 yuan per person will be charged at the entrance. • The way there is downhill, the slope is a bit steep, and there is a lot of gravel, so it is recommended to wear non-slip shoes. The road is very beautiful, and you can take more photos of the Grand Canyon from various angles. • It takes about 30 minutes to go down the mountain and arrive at the [Daze Stone] life photo check-in point. You must first buy a ticket for taking photos, then queue up and wait for your number to be called. It costs 98 yuan per person to take 4 photos, and the average photo time is 2 minutes per person. Then you need to scan the QR code with your mobile phone to download the photos, and you need to pay 2 yuan. The staff will help you pose. There are some big rocks nearby where you can take nice photos, or you can find other camera positions by yourself. • On the way back, you will reach the branch point of the ladder. You can choose to continue climbing up the slope to Teacher Zhang’s Inn, or you can take the 168-level Brave Ladder [charged 10 yuan per person]. • The cloud ladder is very exciting. Climbing up the almost vertical cloud ladder is very exciting. Friends who are not afraid of heights can try it! The ladder is divided into three sections. Don't look down when climbing, hold on to the railings and climb! • We chose to return to Teacher Zhang’s Inn by the same route, which took about 50 minutes. My friend and I were the type who lacked exercise, and our calves hurt for three days after the climb. The entire mountain road is covered with mud and rocks. If the wind is strong, you will find your head and face covered with dust when you return, so it is recommended to wear a hat, mask and sunglasses🕶️.
