Daocheng Aden is a yearning for me. Every year, someone in the circle of friends posts photos of playing in Daocheng, which makes me itch. At the beginning of November, I took annual leave, a total of 10 days, and I happened to be able to walk around Daocheng.

The four of us went to Daocheng together. I originally thought about joining a group, but later I thought about it, it was too unfree and went against our yearning for travel. So, we chose to rent a car from a certain hi. All four of them are licensed, and everyone takes turns driving and does not feel too tired. The car rental point is in Daocheng Aden convenience point, if you don't know how to pick up the car, you can contact customer service directly, they will pick it up for free, in short, the service attitude is quite good.

Day1 Bipenggou tour

Walking into Bipenggou is to walk into the fairy tale world of snow-capped mountains, lakes, and colorful forests. The combination of the snow-capped mountains in the distance, the beauty and spectacle, and the nearby waterfalls add a bit of flexibility. To sum up, here is the forest is dyed, every step is beautiful, rich in color, the most eye-catching, and deeply won my heart.

Keep walking forward, and then you will see the holy snow-capped mountain. It's really really spectacular. From a distance, the tall peaks are covered with perennial snow. There are still misty clouds on the top of the mountain, as if it is a fairyland on earth. I have to say that there are too many good scenery in Yunnan-Guichuan.

In short, the snow-capped mountains and lakes are beautiful, and they are filled with the colors of autumn. It was God who overturned the color palette and scattered it everywhere in Bipenggou. It is indeed and just right to dress up every plant, tree, mountain and water here. I remembered that my friend used to camp in Bipenggou. I am a very vegetable camping party, and I am very envious when I think of everyone camping here.

The return trip passes through Gamborg. Tibetan village, you are a villager. Here you can see the prayer wheel. I used to see the prayer wheel when I went to Tibet. It is especially common to feel that the prayer wheel is turned in the northwest direction. Of course we have to go up and touch it.

also like the process of visiting the Tibetan village, the environment here is still very good, very suitable for a place to wander in a daze, that is, our itinerary is a bit rushed, only half an hour to visit, the white pagoda is not able to climb, and we have not been able to return to the fullest. In hindsight, it was actually completely unnecessary. Even if you stay in the White Tower for a while, it won't win you think about the next trip. And so we ended the full day of the trip.

Day3 Siguniang Mountain in the other direction

Yesterday's Bipenggou was on the back of Siguniang Mountain, and yesterday the sky was clear, with blue skies, white clouds, and snow-capped mountains, and there was a clear feeling. Today began to cool down, and it snowed on the top of Siguniang Mountain, and there was a collision between autumn and winter, and it was another scene, beautiful and beautiful.

Looking at the refreshing green of Siguniang Mountain, coupled with a touch of goose yellow embellishment, the clouds and mist on the top of the mountain, the gift of nature, suddenly want to be an art student, and paint and record the beautiful scenery here. It's snowing in the redwood forest on the top of the mountain, so excited! Suddenly remembering the first time it snowed 10 years ago, Jiuzhaigou played, this situation is so similar, pine, fir, snowflakes are the same as back then.

Leaving Siguniang Mountain, it was snowing all the way, it should have snowed a few days ago, the snow on the road was quite thick, we found a hotel near it, and decided to go to the hotel to rest first. For travel, encountering snowy weather on the road is definitely a rare experience. Especially in the mountains, it's simply beautiful.

Staying in the Daofu high-end hotel ~ Yijia Bamei Resort Hotel, the check-in experience is still good. The room is big and clean inside. Lying on the bed, I opened the curtains and watched the snow outside get more and more. This moment is simply beautiful.

Day5 set off for Daocheng

early on the

fifth day, passing through the Tagong grassland, rain and snow, Yala Snow Mountain was also invisible, The grassland is also white. Travel is like this, and various situations are also the charm of travel in itself.

To the eighteenth bend of the heavenly road, from Aba into Ganzi Prefecture, the weather here suddenly cleared up. Lunch plus meals, taste alpine fish, yak beef, matsutake mushrooms, 150 yuan/person (at your own expense)

Visit Letong Ancient Town, Changchun Keer Temple, sightseeing bus 35 yuan. Founded in 1580 by the third Dalai Lama, Sonam Gyatso, the Changchun Koer Monastery is the oldest and largest Tibetan Buddhist Huangjiao temple in Kham District.

Look at the buildings here, they are different from other buildings I have seen. Look at the sky here, it's so clear. In fact, on this day, our itinerary was almost on the road. After passing through Rabbit Mountain, I saw a lot of prayer flags in Rabbit Mountain. When I arrived at this place, I felt that I must not do bad things. There is someone supervising all this. I found a nearby hotel to rest in the evening.

Day6 Daocheng Aden

This day is the highlight of this trip. Thousands of miles, 2,000 kilometers, just to see the Daocheng Aden. Cattle and sheep are also seen here. And the sheep here look very different. Looking at it from a distance, I even thought it was a vigorous road.

The

autumn colors of Daocheng Aden are more majestic and colorful. Along the way, I personally felt that my eyes were in heaven and my body was in hell. Zha Guan Peng ~ Chonggu Temple, walk 500 meters, then take a sightseeing bus for about half an hour to Luorong Cattle Farm, and start a 5.8km hike.

The high altitude and the long road, 10km round trip, every 30∽40 steps, began to be out of breath, once thought that he could not reach the sea of milk, and thought about giving up, but finally persevered. After a lot of hardships along the way, the milk sea can finally be released, all kinds of poses!

I arrived at Daocheng Aden Scenic Area at more than 10 o'clock, arrived at Milk Sea at 2:50 p.m., and began to clear the scenic spot at 3 o'clock, and there were still 300 meters away from the Five-Colored Sea. Returning the same way, it was a difficult journey, and I couldn't take care of the beautiful scenery on the road! The last shift of the battery car is 6 o'clock, and the last shift of the sightseeing bus is 7 o'clock!

Walk in color. The colorful forest is like shuttling through the artist's color gallery, step by step, stringing together the amazzle of the whole autumn. I have climbed many mountains and seen many forests, but the most beautiful is Daocheng Aden. There is no one.

In fact, after we finished our trip to Aden, our legs and feet recovered. I don't want to leave the scenic spot on the sixth day. However, in line with the Chinese principle that everything has come, we have decided that we must take a walk. So, limping, everyone continued to walk. Let's focus on the seven-colored sea. The scenery is excellent, but the food package is really bad.

There is not even a normal point of powder and noodles in the scenic area. There are milk tea shops, coffee shops, and the restaurant is spicy hot, corn, steamed buns, breakfast snacks, and there is no beef noodles that you want to eat. Only this hot and sour powder.

Finally, a summary. Daocheng is a place that is well worth traveling to. If possible, it is recommended that you arrange an itinerary of more than seven or eight days. In this way, the road will not be rushed. I really don't recommend you to go on a group tour. I saw a tour group on the road, everyone came and went in a hurry, which would greatly reduce the fun.
