Brief introduction of Chengdu to go on road trip, Tibet

There are two free months in the summer vacation, which is the best time to go to go on road trip. If you choose to travel to Tibet, how should you travel from Chengdu? The following is a tour guide from Chengdu to go on road trip, Tibet. Let's have a look!

Depart from Chengdu, enter Tibet along National Highway 3 18, and then leave Golmud, Qinghai. The whole journey is about 35 14 km (including the round-trip distance of scenic spots along the way), and it takes 1 1 day. Among them, Chengdu to Lhasa takes 7 days and the whole journey is 2084 kilometers; Yang Zhuo Yongcuo Tour 1 day, round trip 25 1 km; Visit the Potala Palace, Barkhor Street and Jokhang Temple in Lhasa 1 day; Lhasa to Golmud takes 2 days, the whole journey 1 179 km.

The 35 14 km highway from Chengdu to Golmud is basically a national highway with many slopes and complicated road conditions, which is a test for drivers' driving skills and physical endurance. However, this section of the road is the most beautiful self-driving road in China, with changeable landscape and infinite scenery, which is really worth visiting!

The mileage, altitude, accommodation, scenic spots and some precautions along the way are arranged as follows, hoping to provide some reference and help to everyone.

After crossing the Zheduo Pass, most people will have symptoms of hyperreflexia, mainly manifested as headache and asthma, especially when driving from Zheduo Pass to xinduqiao, they will feel sleepy and sleepy, so be sure to pay attention to driving safety!

Personally, the best way to relieve hyperreflexia is to rest and take oral glucose oral liquid.

There are many hotels in xinduqiao town, so visitors can choose to stay according to their own needs.

Although July is the tourist season in the south of the Sichuan-Tibet line, it is relatively easy to find a hotel in xinduqiao.

After the previous day's exercise, the body has basically adapted to the plateau environment through self-regulation. The next day, I shuttled on the Sichuan-Tibet line at an altitude of more than 4000 meters, and there was no obvious hyperreflexia at ordinary times.

There are still many hotels in Batang, and there is no pressure on accommodation.

Although many hotels in Batang also have restaurants, it is recommended to find a special restaurant in the county and have a good meal.

Restaurants in Batang County are very popular, and many restaurants of online celebrities need to queue up for meals. During the tourist season, it is difficult to park while eating.

Yang Zhuo Yongcuo is near expressway, so you can visit it for free.

To get a panoramic view of Yang Zhuo Yongcuo, the best place is not the top of the mountain, but the observation deck that costs 10 yuan.

There are yaks and Tibetan mastiffs on the bank of Yanghu Lake, and the photo fee is 10 yuan. If you don't want to take photos with animals, don't point your mobile phone or camera at them, or the animal owner will hold you back until you pay 10 yuan (yes, this is my experience).
