It's June now, time to go to Sichuan to go to heaven, friends

Sichuan's own Switzerland, Aden is a true summer secret that you will remember for a lifetime after visiting it once. Whoever goes there knows it!!
In late June, the alpine meadows are newly grown and furry while still in bloom
The perfect season in the heart, with snow-capped mountains and glaciers, the temperature is just right, and the oxygen content is rising
The route I chose at that time was the King Kong Challenge Line to the innermost Milk Sea and Five Color Sea (P10, 11), which is about seven or eight kilometers round trip, with a big climb on the mountain road.
The scenery along this route is very, very beautiful, refreshing, but the top is not so amazing. Friends who can't climb can not insist on reaching the top of the mountain, safety first!
If you have enough time, you can spend two days in the scenic area, one day for the short route and one day for the long route. It is very convenient to stay in Shangri-La Town, and there are even Fuqiao massages (there are many people queuing up, so make an appointment early)

The long route is basically above 4,000 meters above sea level. Different people have different physical conditions. I didn't breathe a breath of oxygen after walking back and forth, but I also saw someone who was carried down the mountain due to altitude sickness.
So it is recommended that each person prepare 2-3 bottles of portable oxygen. It is light to carry but can save lives at critical moments!!
Oxygen is sold in the scenic area, which is slightly expensive. If you drive yourself, you can buy it online before departure. It is very cheap. There are also pharmacies in the town. It is best to buy some glucose oral solution and chocolate.
