Tibet tourism strategy

Located in the middle of Qinghai Province, a new industrial city, long-distance buses regularly travel to and from Tibet, Gansu and other places. In winter, when the roads of Xinzang, Yunnan-Tibet and Sichuan-Tibet are closed or collapsed, they even bypass Golmud, which is the throat of land transportation in Tibet. There are not many tourist attractions in Golmud, but Golmud is a transit point for tourists to enter and leave Lhasa via Qinghai-Tibet Highway.

Kunlun mountain pass

Leave Golmud and drive 1 10 km over Kunlun Mountain Pass. In the afternoon, cars departing from Golmud usually stop at Kunlun Mountain Pass at an altitude of 4,200 meters. There is less oxygen here than in the flat land, and most of the headaches and dizziness caused by mountain sickness start here. For people who have just arrived in Tibet, eating this meal is worse than doing anything. Crossing the Chumar River is Wudaoliang. Because it is a mountainous area, the weather here is unpredictable. Even in July and August, it snows occasionally.

Tuotuo river

It is the source of the Yangtze River, which comes from Ladon Mountain, the main peak of Tanggula at an altitude of 662 1 m. Tuotuo River joins Chumar River to form Tongtian River. After flowing into Sichuan and Yunnan, it was renamed Jinsha River and eventually became the Yangtze River.

Tanggula p.

Leave Tuotuo River and walk south for 203 kilometers, then cross the highest point of the whole line-Tanggula Pass, which is also the border of Qinghai-Tibet. This area is frozen soil; The temperature is below freezing point for a long time, the moisture in the soil layer is frozen for many years, and the road surface is easy to be damaged. The weather in Yamaguchi is unstable. Even in summer, roads are often blocked by heavy snow, and hail, frost and snow are common phenomena. The oxygen content in the air here is only 60% of the horizontal line, so ordinary passengers passing through Tanggula Pass will have obvious mountain reaction. Buses usually stop here for a short time, so don't miss taking pictures at Tanggula Pass-next to the stone monument at an altitude of 523 1 m.

Naqu

After the car turned over the Tanggula Pass, the height gradually decreased and the mountain reaction eased. Looking around, that song gradually appeared in front of my eyes. Getting to Naqu means only a few hours' drive from Lhasa. That song means Heihe in Tibetan. It is located in northern Tibet, between Tanggula Mountain and Nyainqentanglha Mountain, with an altitude of 4,600 meters. It belongs to the plateau hilly area, with frost, strong wind and hail all the year round, and the weather is dry and cold. August and September is the golden season in northern Tibet, where the annual horse racing festival is held, and tourists, vendors and people of all colors are in an endless stream. The Qinghai-Tibet Highway, Heichang Highway (Sichuan-Tibet North Road) and Heihe Highway meet here, making Naqu a traffic center in northern Tibet.

Accommodation: Naqu Hotel, double room 90 yuan, public toilet, toilet.

County Guest House, 15 yuan per person, public toilet.

Transportation: There are regular bus stops in Lhasa, Dangxiong, Suoxian and Golmud. Because the transportation network is developed, there are more vehicles entering Tibet than other roads, and it is not affected by the climate change of the four seasons, so it is not difficult to find a ride as long as you wait in the parking lot or roadside of the hostel at night.

Dangxiong

After the Naqu, walk 164 km to reach Dangxiong. Dangxiong is also located in central Tibet, belonging to the Gangdise Mountains-Nyainqentanglha Mountains. Tourist attractions include Namco, 48 kilometers away from Dangxiong, Yangbajing geothermal hot spring belt, 80 kilometers south, and Lhasa, the end of Qinghai-Tibet Highway, 87 kilometers away from Yangbajing.

Sichuan-Tibetan Highway

South Road: National Highway 3 18, with a total length of 2 140 km.

Chengdu 147→ Yaan 2 17→ Kangding 149→ Yajiang 308→ Batang 104→ Mangkang 158→ Zuogong 107→ Bangda 94→

The Sichuan-Tibet Highway starts in Chengdu, Sichuan and ends in Lhasa, the capital of Tibet. Starting from Chengdu, after passing through Ya 'an and Kangding, xinduqiao was divided into two roads, north and south, each advancing directly to Lhasa. South Road and North Road have their own characteristics. The south road will cross the plateau at an altitude of 5000 meters, and the north road will cross the Ganzi Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture in Sichuan. Both roads will cross many mountains and peaks. These scenes are very attractive to tourists.

Chengdu

The Sichuan-Tibet Highway, the capital of Sichuan Province, starts from Chengdu.

Erlangshan

Erlang mountain pass is 3000 meters above sea level, and it is foggy all the year round. The mountain road is circuitous, narrow and steep. At present, Erlangshan Tunnel has been opened to traffic, and it takes only 7 hours from Chengdu to Kangding.

Luding

The Dadu River and the cable bridges across it occupy an important position in history. 50 kilometers to the south of Luding County is Hailuogou Glacier, and you can take a long-distance bus to Xixiang.

Transportation: The distance from Luding to Kangding is 49 kilometers, and Li Xia takes a taxi to and from the two places. For 3-4 people, travel 1 hour, fare 15 yuan. Westbound, you can find a car at a long-distance bus station 2 kilometers south of the county seat; Occasionally, trucks with Tibetan license plates are parked in front of Yagudu Hotel.

After Luding westbound arrived in xinduqiao, the Sichuan-Tibet Highway was divided into north and south roads.

Litang

This pond is 4700 meters above sea level and is called the tallest town in the world. Litang, located on the grassland, has a simple side, with flocks of cattle and sheep, flowers and plants all over the mountain, and there are also farmers' markets and department stores in the town. The horse racing festival held every summer is quite lively in the town. There is a guest house with simple facilities, but Shan Ye's reaction makes people sleepless all night.

Batang

Located on the bank of Jinsha River, the Tibetan population in the town accounts for the majority; Tibetan opera and folk dance here are very famous. An earthquake occurred in Batang Town 1986, causing a few casualties, but the house was seriously damaged. Most houses in the town must be rebuilt. The new building maintains the rich Tibetan characteristics of Batang, and the clean streets here are refreshing.

Accommodation: Batang Changdu Bus Station. 35 kilometers west of Batang is Jinsha River. After crossing the bridge, the car went into Tibet. A checkpoint was set up at the western end of the bridge.

Mangkang

Mangkang is the first town after Sichuan-Tibet South Road entered Tibet, and it is also the intersection with Yunnan-Tibet Highway. The main shops in Mangkang Town are all on a main street, and this town has little material supply except as a traffic point. You can stay at Mangkang County Guest House.

Kangding

Remember Kangding's love song sung in primary school? As mentioned in the song, Happy Valley Mountain is just south of Kangding County, and it can be reached on foot. Most of the trees on both sides of the mountain path are surrounded by Tibetan scriptures. As long as you walk 2.5 kilometers to the mountainside, you can have a bird's eye view of the whole county. The white tower on the mountainside is 3000 meters above sea level.

Transportation: You can take Mudeng from Kangding to Luding, and the fare per person is 15 yuan.

Jolla, mt

Queer Mountain Pass is the highest point of the whole Sichuan-Tibet Highway. The top of the mountain is covered with snow all year round, and the cliff below the mountain is often covered with heavy snow, which is a black spot for rollover. But the magnificence of glaciers is very attractive. Coupled with the beautiful lakes, the scenery is really beautiful, and the scenery is comparable to Switzerland.

Dege

Dege is the last town in Sichuan section of Sichuan-Tibet Highway, and Dege Printing Academy is the largest existing printing academy in Tibet. There are still ancient Buddhist scriptures here, and there are many Buddha statues, which are of great value to visit.

Jinsha river

It is not only the upper reaches of the Yangtze River that flows from north to south, but also the natural dividing line between Sichuan and Tibet. After crossing the Jinsha River Bridge, you will enter Tibet, and it will be easy to find a bus to Lhasa when you arrive in Changdu.

Yunnan-Tibet Road

From Kunming to Lhasa, the national highway 2 14 is 2300 kilometers long. Kunming 39→ Shimonoseki/KOOC-0/4 → Dali/KOOC-0/66 → Lijiang/KOOC-0/45 → Zhongdian/KOOC-0/52 → Deqin/KOOC-0/03 → Yanjing/KOOC-0/→ Mang.

A branch line of Yunnan-Tibet Highway runs from Kunming via Xiaguan, Dali, Zhongdian, Deqin and Yanjing to Mangkang of Sichuan-Tibet Highway, and then turns west to Changdu or via Bayi to Lhasa. Distance from Kunming to Mangkang 1, 1 12km, distance from Mangkang to Lhasa via Bayi 1, 26544. The starting point of Yunnan-Tibet Highway is Kunming, Yunnan. There are many places worth visiting on the way to Kunming. From Kunming to Mangkang, the traffic needs multi-station transfer, passing through many ethnic minority areas such as Bai, Naxi and Tibetan, with rich ethnic customs. Yunnan-Tibet Highway across Hengduan Mountains is divided by Jinsha River, Lancang River and Nujiang River, while Yuneng Snow Mountain, Haba Snow Mountain, Baimang Snow Mountain, Wangzi Snow Mountain and Meili Snow Mountain are divided, and they also need to pass through natural barriers such as the First Bay of the Yangtze River and Tiger Leaping Gorge, resulting in a great difference in the ups and downs of Yunnan-Tibet Highway: within 10 km, the highway drops sharply and then rises again, and the climate changes with height, which is called three-dimensional climate. Passengers can spend four seasons in a half-day trip. Yunnan-Tibet Highway is affected by weather changes, and landslides and even mudslides often occur in Zhongdian-Mangkang section in rainy season.

Kunming

Kunming is called the Spring City. Because the four seasons are like spring, all the year round is the tourist season. Tourist attractions include: Xishan, Forest Park, Huating Temple, Longmen, Jin Dian, Black Dragon Pool, Stone Forest, etc.

Yulong and Haba Snow Mountain

From Xiaguan in Dali to the north, it branches at Baiyangchang, leads to Lijiang Naxi Autonomous County to the east, and then enters Yulong Snow Mountain and Haba Snow Mountain Canyon to the north. Cars hover in the canyon, and there are layers of dense forests at the foot of the mountain. The top of the mountain is covered with snow all year round, and the scenery is magnificent. When the highway crosses the Jinsha River Bridge, not far from the east is the Tiger Leaping Gorge with a canyon depth of 3,000 meters, which is magnificent; From the first bay of the Yangtze River in the west, the river quietly flows into Tiger Leaping Gorge. After crossing the Jinsha River, the road gradually climbed and the temperature turned cold. After going forward, I began to step into the place where Tibetans lived, and arrived at Zhongdian Basin through Xiaozhongdian.

Zhongdian

Jinsha River, Lancang River and Nujiang River flow through Diqing Autonomous Prefecture in Hengduan Mountain area from north to south. Deep valleys, continuous snow peaks, vast grasslands, virgin forests, mountains and lakes dotted around, beautiful natural scenery and unique ethnic customs.
