Depart from Lijiang to Zhonghu Jump to Shangri-La

It takes about 2 hours to drive from Lijiang to Zhonghutiao. The most beautiful place in Zhonghutiao is the Jiujiu Tiandai. There are some private hotels near the Jiujiu Tiandai. You can pay for parking. No problem. If you only visit this section of the Nine-Nine Ladder, 3 hours is enough. It is no problem to go down to the "Tiger Leaping Stone". Climbing up again is very demanding on physical strength. It is high, difficult and very tiring. I have experienced it. I think this section of the Nine-Nine Ladder is the most spectacular. It takes about 3 hours to drive from Jiujiu Tianlai to Shangri-La. There are 2 roads, one passes through Baishuitai Scenic Area and the other passes through Xiaozhongdian. The road in Xiaozhongdian is easier to walk, while the road in Baishuitai Scenic Area is mostly a winding road (asphalt road). If you take the Xiaozhongdian road, you have to go back to Shanghutiao Gate and then continue walking north, which is a bit of a backtrack.
