Since the release of the movie From Your World in 2016, the place of Daocheng Aden has been echoing in my mind, and the line that I will never forget: "There is a place called Daocheng, I want to go there with my beloved, see the blue sky, see the white snow-capped mountains, see the golden meadow, and watch an autumn fairy tale." "The beauty of Daocheng in the movie fascinated me, and also made me sure that I must go to this place, this trip we start from Chongqing, the starting point of the movie, to Chengdu with Chengdu as the transit point of this trip, Daocheng Aden as the final destination

Departing from Chongqing to Chengdu on the 27th: A group of three of us, the high-speed train we bought at two o'clock in the afternoon departed from Chongqing North Railway Station to Chengdu East Railway Station, the first day did not arrange any attractions to visit, when we arrived in Chengdu, we went to the accommodation booked in advance, the accommodation in Chengdu is also a very impressive point in this trip, in Chengdu for three nights we chose to stay in the "Chengdu Backpack Ten Years Youth Hostel" This youth hostel can be said to be the best youth hostel in China with the best quality, environment, hardware and software facilities, and it is not an exaggeration to describe it as a five-star youth hostel. The room for 6 people we booked for three was 60 yuan per person per day. The location of the hostel is also very good, two streets away from Chunxi Road, 20 minutes on foot and 10 minutes by bicycle, and Jinli, Wuhou Temple, Du Fu thatched cottage, wide and narrow alleys and other iconic attractions in Chengdu are not far away, the atmosphere of the whole hostel is also very good, there is a coffee bar and a beer bar on the first floor of the hostel If you are tired, you can go to the first floor to order two glasses of craft beer for ten years of backpacking, watch a ball game, or chat with strangers Listen to a wonderful performance by a folk singer. The second floor is even more like a billiard table and book borrowing, and every night there are friends in the youth hostel to organize everyone to play werewolf killing, and the atmosphere is simply not too good. We put our luggage in the hostel that day and came to the first floor, each ordered a beer, ordered takeout, drank and ate meat and chatted, not to mention how happy it was.
Today on the 28th is a very casual day, there is no special itinerary, the main experience is to feel the day of slow life in Chengdu, no need to get up early We woke up from sleep at 9:30, drank a few more glasses of wine last night, and slept very soundly. It was already 10:30 when I went out, and I ate a bowl of Chengdu's special dandan noodles downstairs, and I ate breakfast as lunch. Continuing to move forward like Du Fu thatched cottage, the most convenient and fastest means of transportation in big cities is still the subway, more than 10 kilometers away, and the subway takes 20 minutes. The ticket for Du Fu's thatched cottage is 50 yuan a piece, to be honest, it is not cheap, I bought three tickets to go in The vegetation landscape inside is greater than the cultural things It seems that I went in to enjoy the green pond and small fish in the thatched cottage, and I can meet many tourists holding SLR cameras in it to take pictures inside, each of which looks particularly professional. There were more people taking pictures, so we also took out our mobile phones to record these charming scenery in front of us. It wasn't until 3 p.m. that I came out of Du Fu's thatched cottage, and looked at the navigation on my mobile phone Jinli was not far from us, so I decided on my next destination. Visiting Jinli is actually similar to visiting Chongqing's Ciqikou, as a native of Chongqing, I know very well about the ancient architectural pedestrian streets such as Ciqikou Jinli The things inside are sold to outsiders, and the quality can not be considered very good, only the entire building and exterior decoration style are more eye-catching to me, and I also took out my mobile phone to take a lot of beautiful photos of Jinli buildings, and I walked around for most of the day. Eating meat and drinking in big gulps, three people ate more than 700 yuan without paying attention, and one person drank a 1000ml bottle of Japanese Kirin draft beer We were all blinded when we saw that super big cup That picture is so funny in retrospect.Back to the hostel and had two drinks on the first floor, a friend said that we were drinking in a different place to drink bar, I want to say that drinking and traveling are not in conflict Sometimes a glass of wine goes down, and then you may find something different when you look around
29th Chengdu Happy Valley check-in day I have also played in Chongqing's Happy Valley, compared to Chengdu, this area is larger, more projects, more fun and distinctive, from the bus stop a few hundred meters away from the backpack ten-year store, take a 50-minute bus 18 stops to directly arrive at the gate of Happy Valley, the Happy Valley ticket is about 220 yuan per person, it is a 2-day pass, the fare is much more expensive than Chongqing, fortunately, you can play for one more day, but it has nothing to do with us, tomorrow morning we will fly to Daocheng. Have fun today, try to check in the projects inside, go to the playground of course you have to play the most exciting projects inside, if you want to say that the project is the soul of the playground, it must be a roller coaster. There are 5 kinds of roller coasters of different sizes in Chengdu Happy Valley, including a roller coaster with a height difference of 50 meters and a vertical drop of 90 degrees in the Western Regions, two roller coasters with 360 rotating bends flying in the stars, and a roller coaster that is so fast that it can't open its mouth, each of which has left us happy memories. In addition to the roller coaster, we also went to the pirate ship, jumping machine, big pendulum, which must not be left behind, but we stopped moving forward under the bungee platform hahaha.
plane at 10:55 on the 30th from Chengdu Shuangliu Airport to Daocheng Aden Airport We dragged our suitcases early to the airport Not to mention how excited we were along the way, we were in a state of excitement and couldn't come out until we boarded the plane, because I knew that in 50 minutes we would be able to set foot on the last clean land of this blue planet. 4411 meters Remember this number The highest civil airport in the world is Daocheng Aden Airport As soon as the plane landed, we saw that some friends on the same flight had a high reaction phenomenon, and the limbs were weak and shouted dizziness, fortunately, the three of us had no problem, if we also started to feel dizzy, I really don't know what the trip to Daocheng Aden will be like, but don't be transported back as soon as you get off the plane haha. I got in touch with the driver who picked me up after leaving the terminal, and the pick-up fee was originally 400 yuan, but it was 300 yuan. No matter what you do here, you can bargain, and if you can't say it, there will be unexpected results. Two hours drive from the airport to the scenic spot We had lunch in Shangri-La Town, which is about 10 kilometers away from the scenic spot, and bought a lot of dry food to continue to depart like the scenic spot The ticket to Daocheng Aden is 150 yuan and the sightseeing car is 120 yuan are all must-buy costs Our accommodation is booked in Aden Village in the scenic spot, there is still almost 20 kilometers from the gate of the scenic spot to Aden Village can only take the sightseeing bus of the scenic spot to enter The altitude of Aden Village has also reached 3900 meters Due to the high altitude, each homestay is equipped with oxygen. If you have a high level of reaction, you can take oxygen in the room, and the cost of oxygen is paid separately. The price is not low, everyone tries to choose a place to stay before traveling, you can choose to stay in Shangri-La Town at an altitude of about 2,800 meters. At present, it is in the off-season, and the room price is about 150 yuan, and in October, most of them are more than 1,000 yuan, remember to book accommodation in advance. There are fewer entertainment projects near Aden Village, which is not convenient, but in Shangri-La Town, it is much more prosperous.
July 1 Today, the three of us chose to challenge the long-term line of Aden Scenic Area first: Aden Village - Zha Guan Collapse - Battery Car (80 yuan round trip) - Luorong Cattle Farm - Wuse Lake - Milk Sea (about 8 hours)
At8 o'clock, I borrowed trekking poles at the hotel, prepared Snickers compressed biscuits, these dry food, each person brought a bottle of water and set off, yesterday I arrived in Aden Village after dinner, it rained outside, the fog cleared early this morning, the sun is shining, it is not too suitable for mountaineering, from Aden Village by scenic bus to the hiking entrance The entrance is also the boundary between the long and short lines On the one hand, you can choose to take a battery car to Luorong Cattle Farm, you can also hike 6.7 kilometers to Luorong Cattle Farm, and then start 10 kilometers of high-altitude hiking back and forth, Luorong Cattle Farm is the place where Yang Yang proposed to Bai Baihe from your world, but we came in July, this side is a green area, if you wait until mid-September to November, it is a golden land, and it is also the most beautiful time of the year in Aden, from Luorong Cattle Farm at an altitude of 4180 meters The whole journey from Luorong Cattle Farm to Wushi Lake at an altitude of 4,700 meters at the highest point is about 5.3km You can choose to ride a horse at Luorong Cattle Farm 300 yuan per person Weight must be less than 200 pounds Horseback riding can only ride 3.5 km one way The back 1km is a steep step You can only cross it on foot by yourself, and it takes about 8 hours for a long round trip. After understanding this, we also started a hiking and mountaineering trip from the Luorong Cattle Farm We are all hiking at high altitude for the first time No one knows who will last to the end Who will be the first of us to fall We choose to move forward by taking pictures while moving forward, the scenery on both sides is so beautiful, the snow-capped mountains in the distance go straight into the clouds Looming, the snow water left from the snow-capped mountains slowly flows down in the stream in front of us and merges into the Luorong Cattle Farm Everything is so harmonious and quiet We set off at 8 o'clock in the morning At 11:30, I finally arrived at the five-colored sea at an altitude of 4,700 meters, and I was instantly attracted by the blue lake in front of me, and I couldn't take my eyes off it, it was so beautiful. From the five-color sea, continue along the path for a few hundred meters to the milk sea, the milk sea is different from the azure blue of the five-color sea, the milk sea has a faint milky white color, wrapping it in a thick layer of armor as shown in the picture, so that it will not be harmed in any way, these two sacred lakes in the hearts of the locals are so sacred and inviolable, behind them, Xian Nai Ri, Yang Mai Yong, and Charlotte Dorji three Tibetan sacred mountains have been guarding them, when you overcome the high reaction and challenge the limits of the body, and finally climb to the highest point to see these two lakes You will find that everything is worth it, these two lakes are like the divine power to heal any fatigue, tiredness, all difficulties and pains, at that moment, like the clouds in the sky can disappear in an instant. The three of us don't know how many years of character we have saved, so that Aden, who was still crying the first day, showed us its brightest smile the next day, and on the way down the mountain, we have also been encouraging those who are challenging themselves and moving forward bravely, a simple cheer, or Tashi Dele's encouragement to them may be several times more than the oxygen cylinder in their hands, and finally we completed this long-term challenge in Aden in three 6 hours, and another friend and I didn't take a breath of oxygen throughout the whole process. For many people, "Daocheng Aden is a paradise for the eyes and a hell for the body. "But for us, from the moment we get off the plane, our eyes or bodies are already in the last clean land on this blue planet.
July 2 Daocheng Aden Short Line: Aden Village - Zhaguan Collapse - Chonggu Temple - Pearl Sea (about 3 hours).
After all, we will return to Shangri-La Town in the afternoon, and there is a Chonggu Temple that was once brilliant but now it is down, and there is also a sea of pearls as famous as the milk sea and the five-color lake, he is like a piece of dark jade that fell into the world, with the change of the color of the surrounding vegetation throughout the year, showing the colorful scenery, so that everyone who has seen him is fascinated. In contrast, if there is a slight high reaction, it is recommended that you choose to take the short-term route first and adapt to the change in altitude. Choose carefully according to your physical condition Remember not to be strong in plateau areas. In the afternoon of the same day, we also returned to Shangri-La Town, found the most popular restaurant in the town, and enjoyed his family's barbecue and soup pot as a specialty, the taste was really good, after dinner, we sat down in the bistro opposite and drank two glasses of Belgian beer, listened to folk songs, as if it took me back to the days of listening to songs in the Qing bar of the ancient city of Dali, it was so comfortable.
On July 3rd, we originally planned to take the plane from Aden to Chongqing, but recently the flights to Chongqing have been canceled, so we chose the only means of transportation left, take a bus back to Chengdu in Shangri-La Town, and then take the high-speed rail back to Chongqing from Chengdu, the bus from Aden to Chengdu only departs on time at 6 a.m., the journey is about 16 hours, there is a distance of more than 800 kilometers, and the fare is 300 yuan But I have never taken a bus for such a long time before and want to try it, the whole experience I want to say that it completely subverted my imagination, we set off at 6 a.m. and arrived at Chengdu Xinnanmen Bus Station at 8 p.m. The bus sat down all day without feeling too uncomfortable, the cushions on the seats are very comfortable, very soft and will not hurt the waist, and the scenery outside the window is also picturesque, and you can see yaks grazing everywhere outside the window, in groups, the Tibetans over there are real tyrants, almost every family has hundreds of yaks and a few mountains of land I want to go over there to be a cowherd hahaha. I returned to Chengdu and stayed in a hostel by the way, and I had a barbecue in Chengdu downstairs, to be honest, the barbecue in Chongqing is the most in line with my taste, and the taste of my hometown is stronger.
July 4 5 p.m. EMU Before returning to Chongqing, I went to Chunxi Road and Taikoo Li to shop and buy some small gifts for my family and friends to take back. When I got home, I immediately ordered a barbecue in Chongqing, and it was indeed the familiar taste.
