20 15 national highway 3 17 Sichuan-Tibet road map

3 17, like 3 18, belongs to the Sichuan-Tibet line. National Highway 3 17 is also called the Sichuan-Tibet North Line by donkey friends. 3 18 is called the south of Sichuan-Tibet line.

Compared with 3 18, the road condition of 3 17 is obviously much worse. 3 17 was called the road to hell in the old society, and it would pass through a long no-man's land. Now this road has been renovated. Although the road conditions are much better, compared with 3 18 national highway, 3 17 is still not so easy to walk. So, for the sake of safety, Bian Xiao doesn't recommend that you experience it yourself here, just learn it through words and pictures.

National Highway 3 17 (G3 17) starts in Chengdu, Sichuan and ends in Naqu, Tibet, with a total length of 2,034 kilometers.

Route 3 17 of National Highway is: Chengdu-Pixian-Dujiangyan-Wenchuan-Lixian-Marcand-Luhuo-Ganzi-Dege-Jiangda, Tibet-Changdu-Leiwuqi-Dingqing-Baqing-Suoxian-Naqu.

Because its strategic position is less than 3 18, it has been ignored by the state. There are too many roads on 3 17, which are all one-way streets because of the embarrassment when they were just built, so it is difficult to meet cars. ...

Because it basically advanced at 3 18, especially after entering Tibet, the areas it passed were mostly barren, so it was left out by long-distance transport teams. Without transportation, there will be no timely road maintenance, and driving will become more and more difficult. ...

Because it is too short, only 2034 kilometers, compared with other north-south national highways, it may not be enough to attract the attention of tourism propaganda media who do special topics, so it is left out in the cold and relevant information is scattered and missing.

Because of its difficult journey, its tourism development is backward after entering northern Tibet, and its altitude is relatively high (compared with 3 18), so it is neglected by travelers. How many people turned around halfway, entered Tibet along other routes and left again? ...

In fact, 3 17 is also a landscape avenue with bright humanities and unique light and shadow. The landscape value of 3 17 is unparalleled if the landscape scope is extended to the periphery along the route by 200KM according to the expert theory:

3 17 passes through the residential areas of more than 50 ethnic groups such as Han, Qiang, Hui, Man, Mongolia, Menba, Barrow and Tibetan (Jia Rong, Muya, Khampa and Weizang), which is a road of ethnic integration.

3 17 is a cluster of temples, such as Seda Larong Wuming Buddhist College, Yaqing Training Ground, Dege Silent Academy, Bagang Temple, the main temple of Kagyupai Kangqu, Chajema Temple on the ancient Tang-Fan Road, White Temple of Ma Ning School, Ganzi Temple of Gelug School, Zheluo Temple, the oldest temple of Bonism, etc. This is a road of religious and cultural convergence.

3 17 passes through Dujiangyan, the greatest water conservancy project in history, Karuo site in the late Neolithic period, the territory of Tibetan hero King Gelsall, and the site of the liberation of Tibet in Qamdo, which is a road with heavy historical accumulation.

3 17 crosses countless mountains and rivers, from the rich Chengdu plain in central Sichuan to the desolate Qiangtang Plateau in northern Tibet. It is a road with original and magnificent scenery and strange light and shadow.

Every season, every route, you can see different Tibetan areas.

3 17 The rainy season ended and the plateau was in full swing. From the Sichuan Basin to the grasslands and mountains in the northwest of Sichuan, and then across the Jinsha River into the magical Tibet, the natural and cultural landscape of every day is unpredictable and worth looking forward to. ?
