Ten-mile Corridor

It was rainy all the way, but I was pleasantly surprised to encounter blue skies in Xinduqiao, a photographer's paradise. Western Sichuan boasts majestic snow-capped mountains like Mount Gongga, Mount Siguniang, and Yading, as well as the warm sunshine of Xinduqiao.

The weather must be good to take more beautiful photos, but the weather must be determined by fate.

Xinduqiao is known as a photographer's paradise, and it lives up to its reputation.

The hidden beauty of Xinduqiao: Lotus Lake, Gongga Loop - Yaha Pass, Quanhua Beach, Zimei Pass, Lisuo Lake, Lotus Lake, Wuxu Lake, Black Stone City, Qumu Temple, Yibicuo Wetland...

Xinduqiao is a photographer's paradise. We woke up early in the morning and headed straight to Lhasa. We didn't stop anywhere, but the scenery along the way was amazing.

After crossing Zheduo Mountain, I was amazed. Everywhere I looked, there was scenery.

Xinduqiao's most worthwhile scenic route, whether hiking or driving, is a 10-kilometer journey that requires a keen eye for beauty. This is a "photographer's corridor," not just a hiker's paradise, perfect for finding the perfect angle to capture the most stunning scenery. Of course, another highlight is the "world of light and shadow." In the ever-changing light of each season, Xinduqiao's beauty is endless!

Coming down from Zheduo Mountain, you will arrive at Xinduqiao, a photographer’s paradise.

Because of the rainy weather, we did not take a detour to "Tagong Grassland".

I've long thought of the Long Corridor, but never had the chance to see it. I've visited it in dreams, but the beautiful scenery is hard to capture, only the willows on the bank. Today, at the ancient ferry, I've longed to shake hands with the mountains and rivers.

Don't think of Xinduqiao and the Ten-Mile Corridor as tourist attractions; they're essentially transit points into western Sichuan. The best way to experience Xinduqiao and the Ten-Mile Corridor is by driving, capturing the expansive, flat, tree-lined road, the meadows under a blue sky and white clouds, the wildflowers scattered across them, and the elderly woman praying. The grasslands here lack the ethereal beauty of wind-blown grass revealing cattle and sheep. The grasslands of western Sichuan resemble a layer of green silk spread across the rolling terrain, appearing smooth and supple from afar. Tibetans here rarely raise sheep; the most common pastoral animals are black yaks, with smaller Tibetan horses and fragrant pigs also common.

Xinduqiao offers convenient living. After resting and restocking, you can head south to Jiulong to Zimei Pass and Wuxuhai, north to Danba to visit Tibetan villages and Dangling, or continue west to Daocheng Yading or into Tibet. It's the perfect place to experience life on the road.

So disappointed, this is the photography paradise I came to, don't come at this time, bare trees, dry rivers

I have always heard that Xinduqiao is a world of light and shadow. It is indeed picturesque. Every place is as bright and charming as if cast by magic of sunlight. It is a fascinating "photography paradise".

The scenery is OK, but it still feels a bit worse than the legendary photographer's paradise

We arrived in Xinduqiao after 5pm. Most hotels were closed, and the ones that were open were full. We later learned there was a power outage, so we didn't get to take many good photos along the way. We were even more frustrated staying in Kangding tonight. Either the hotels were full or we were being ripped off. Luckily, we did go to Yala Snow Mountain today, which was pretty good.

The scenery was the worst this year. Waze Township and Yingguan Village, which is right next to 318, are probably all being hyped up. Prices are high. Xinduqiao Town is okay.

The free scenery along the way must be recommended

I personally think the most beautiful part of Xinduqiao is the drive from Kangding to Xinduqiao. We were in such a hurry that we didn't have a chance to stop and take photos, which was a shame. The scenery in Xinduqiao town was much less impressive. There is an observation deck in the town with a view of the snow-capped mountains, which I recommend going to see; the snow-capped mountains are quite spectacular. We had yak beef soup in the evening. The hot pot here is all soup pot, not spicy hot pot.

I don't know what's so beautiful about Xinduqiao. From Shangri-La in Yunnan to Shangri-La in Sichuan and then to Hailuogou, I passed by Xinduqiao. After reading various reviews, I decided to visit here, but the scenery I saw was not worth the effort and I didn't want to take pictures. However, I was interested in riding horses on the grassland, so I went down to ask one of the inns how to ride. The answer was hilarious. You can ride horses, but there are no horses... I asked several inns and they still didn't have horses. Later, I went to a place one kilometer away from Xinduqiao to ask for food and accommodation. I found a place called Gesang Jinhua, which was okay and reasonably priced. A foodie friend took me to a restaurant run by the Jinqiu Ma Hotel in front, saying that it must be delicious because there were so many people. Wow, I looked at the menu and it was not cheap. The boss also recommended stir-fry and hot pot. Later I felt it was a routine... 168 for a pot of clear beef soup, 25 for a vegetarian dish, and 25 for a seaweed egg drop soup. Well, never mind, I drove all day to eat and ordered a pot of clear beef soup and 4 servings of vegetarian dishes. I waited 30 minutes for the dishes to be served. When I took a look at the beef, wow, it was delicious It's been a long time since I've seen 4 taels of beef and half a pound of radish. I almost vomited after drinking a mouthful of soup. This is simply beef cooked with urine. I like to eat mutton and I'm not afraid of the strong smell. This made me vomit it out. My friend almost vomited. Fortunately, there were no vegetarian dishes. We asked the boss to help process it. The guy said he didn't have time and you guys couldn't get used to it. I was speechless at the time. I went to ask a few people who were eating beef hot pot next to me, and it turned out that several buddies at other tables also complained that it was awful. At first glance, it turned out that they were all leeks brought by a tourist bus. I went to the boss and he also said he didn't have time to process it and you guys couldn't get used to it. Well, this is considered a black shop. I felt so bad. Let's watch the show. Another table of tourist bus leeks came, and I saw a pot of clear soup beef with more than ten servings of vegetarian dishes. I almost vomited out of laughter. From the first person's first bite after it was cooked... I was satisfied to see him vomit it out directly. One brother smiled knowingly when he saw we didn't eat it, shook his head and made a mouth shape, it was awful. Well, my one-day trip to Xinduqiao was a lesson learned. I've learned a lesson. From now on, I'll never go to small places on a road trip. I'll at least stay in a county or above. Finally, let me throw everything into the pot and don't reheat it to harm the next family.

Xinduqiao Ten-Li Corridor is a very beautiful place, located on National Highway 318.

I went to Daocheng last National Day and visited Xinduqiao. It's famous for its light and shadow. To have light and shadow, you must have clouds. So it depends on your luck. I took this photo on my phone while moving, and it's not retouched. The real scene is much better than the photo.

Summer is also beautiful. If you have the chance, come in autumn. I heard that it is the most beautiful season.

It was pretty good. I was lucky enough to have a sunny day. The photos were beautiful...

The road along Xinduqiao is really beautiful, but it was a pity that it was cloudy (but it is still very beautiful and pristine, with many calves and ponies, colorful Tibetan houses and temples, and the Tagong grassland is breathtaking).

The entire road from Xinduqiao is a photography paradise. On a good day, the blue sky and white clouds contrast with the green mountains and clear waters, and cattle, sheep, and horses can be seen everywhere. This harmonious natural landscape is truly breathtaking. You won't be able to take photos like a photographer, but everyone will have their own "blockbuster" moments. It's also quite a long walk from Kangding. The only thing to be aware of is altitude sickness. I had altitude sickness in Xinduqiao and it rained.

Maybe it was the wrong season, the scenery of Xinduqiao was average, but fortunately there were these red and yellow trees along the way.

This is a must-see on the 318 Highway, so I visit it several times a year. Perhaps the scenery here has lost its awe. The photos in this review were taken a long time ago, when there weren't as many hotels as there are now. The scenery along the main road was truly beautiful. What about now? My feeling is that the scenery is still there, you just have to be attentive to discover it. Since it's known as a photographer's paradise, this place is definitely a place for great photos. As for the hotels on both sides of the road near Xinduqiao, they've all been built to maintain the local architectural style and are very standard. I personally don't think it's a problem.

Xinduqiao, also known as Dong'e Luo, is the name of a town, not a scenic spot. It is located in Kangding County. The reason why Xinduqiao has become a photography paradise is that the scenery along the way and the distinctive houses of Tibetans form a beautiful landscape, and the Ten-Li Gallery is worthy of its name.

Now you have to pay to set up a tent on any lawn, and it is gradually becoming commercialized.

It's really nice. If you have time, walk around more and you can definitely take a lot of pictures.

Xinduqiao is a classic check-in photography spot, really, really suitable for taking pictures. You have to choose a good time and weather to come here. We came on October 15th. There were 60% green leaves, 20% yellow leaves, and 10% red leaves. It was a sense of alternation of life, but at the same time it was quiet and comfortable under the sun. However, a kind reminder to everyone to be careful of the passing vehicles

July is like spring, with wild flowers everywhere. It is said that October is the best time to see them.

Rainbows and Storms (Look carefully, there is a double rainbow in the third photo)

This photo was taken on an unnamed mountain near Xinduqiao, while waiting for the fog to clear from the top of Mount Gongga. It had just rained heavily, and I felt the saying, "No rain, no rainbow!"

The natural and cultural landscapes are beautiful. The road is dusty, but the small river along the road is very suitable for hiking.

It is indeed a picturesque sight, and the people are part of the picture.

From Tagong Grassland to Xinduqiao, we passed a scenic road lined with poplar trees. When we went, the leaves hadn't yet fully turned yellow, and it was raining and snowing, so the lighting wasn't ideal. But the road was still beautiful.

The road is very good and the scenery on both sides is also very beautiful. I like the feeling of autumn.

The Ten-Mile Corridor is located between Xinduqiao and Tagong. Lonely Planet describes it as a free scenic avenue with the most beautiful scenery in the golden autumn season, making it the perfect place for a self-drive tour.

It's OK, the scenery is just okay, it's much better in autumn

A photographer's paradise, the colors may lack a certain richness in summer, but it is already great. Looking forward to visiting again in autumn

The most beautiful places are to be seen and experienced with your eyes and heart.

The 10-plus kilometers of Xinduqiao Road are known as a photographer's paradise. This is Xinduqiao's most quintessential spot. The blue sky, white clouds, green grass, black and brown yaks, and gray asphalt create a fairytale-like experience. Even with poor photography skills, any casual snap can create a masterpiece. Autumn offers a completely different kind of beauty, with the trees and grass lining the road tinted red or yellow, accentuated by the blue sky and white clouds. Even if you visit during off-season, you can still experience the beauty of the Ten-Mile Corridor.

The "Ten-Li Corridor" probably refers to the section from Tagong to Xinduqiao, which is lined with picturesque scenery and is known as the Photographers' Corridor.

The sky is blue and the clouds are white. I feel so close to the sky. Groups of yaks and grasslands are everywhere. I feel more relaxed than ever before.

The beautiful scenery needs to be seen in person, it is a complete Tibetan style, believe me, you will like it.

On the way from Bamei, Sichuan to Danba, the autumn scenery is very beautiful.

The beauty of Xinduqiao lies not in the town, but on the roads, especially the light and shadow in the morning and evening, which is very beautiful towards Kowloon.

Although we didn’t see Xinduqiao turn golden when we arrived, we could still feel its beauty.

Take some time, patience and thought, and you will surely find surprising images here.

This stretch of road was truly a photography paradise. The scenery along the way was breathtaking: poplar trees intertwined with barley fields and grasslands, with streams flowing through them. Suddenly, I thought of the lush reeds, the white dew yet unfrosted, and the saying, "My beloved is by the water." Sunlight filtered through the clouds, dappling the landscape and adding a touch of vitality.

The Ten-Li Long Corridor begins at Xinduqiao. Strangely, there aren't as many cars on the road as you might expect. For rest and lodging, I recommend staying in Xinduqiao Town. While small, it has everything you need. There's a good Dengfenglai Inn, where the owner, Tiechui, is very welcoming and cooks the meals themselves. The prices are quite reasonable.

The beauty of the road does not necessarily stop at scenic spots.

Xinduqiao is about 3,300 meters above sea level and has no outstanding landmarks, but there is a 10-kilometer stretch along the route known as the "Photographer's Corridor."

It is said to be a paradise for photography lovers.

Maybe the weather is not good,

Or maybe my technique is not good enough,

There are no good photos.

The whole road is lined with lush green trees that I can't name = = So beautiful, so beautiful, so beautiful!!

There are Buddha statues on the hillside.

The autumn scenery is beautiful. I went there in early spring and it was not very beautiful. In spring, the poplar leaves here are yellow when they first sprout, a bit like autumn, but not as dense.

The Ten-Li Gallery in Xinduqiao is known as a "photographer's paradise". Because I had to take the Sichuan-Tibet Highway, I only had a quick look at this "paradise" and took some simple photos.

It's beautiful, but the scenery of Xinduqiao is not in the town, but in the scenery along the way! ! !

Outside Xinduqiao, when the bride encountered the dog cubs, they were all shot and cannoned.

I'm a bit disappointed that the leaves haven't fully yellowed yet, the most famous autumn scenery here. I believe anything I haven't experienced is truly beautiful. This half-yellow scenery is something you can't see in Shanghai, and I'm grateful for it. The water nearby, the horses a little further away, the houses in the distance, and the mountains beyond, form a beautiful picture. The poplar trees behind, half yellow and half green, are also a beautiful sight.

Along National Highway 318, Tibetan dwellings, grasslands, mountains, rivers, cattle and sheep form a landscape painting, but too many electric poles hinder the view.

Xinduqiao does not require a ticket, but it does require good luck. If the light is excellent, you will be able to capture stunning scenery. The beauty of Xinduqiao is achieved through light.

I kept taking pictures along the way. The car stopped and started frequently. We arrived at Xinduqiao near dusk. The scenery along the way was very beautiful.

The Ten-Li Long Corridor in Xinduqiao lived up to its reputation, but there were a lot of clouds in the sky and the weather was very complicated. When I got here, I realized that my complacent photography skills were so poor. I still need to practice more.
