If you were given a chance to travel, would you choose Tibet or Yunnan? Why?

Your question is really unique. I've thought it over for a long time, but it's really hard to choose. Tell me some of my thoughts.

First, Tibet

Tibet, which is located in the snowy plateau, is a place that many people have been longing for for for a long time. The plateau scenery, the original natural beauty, without too many traces of artificial carving, has been like this for thousands of years. There is also the mysterious Tibetan Buddhism and the unparalleled piety of the people, which deeply attract people to go.

Different from other places, most of the beautiful scenery in Tibet is on the way to travel, such as National Highway 318, the newly-built longest National Highway 219, Buddhist temples all over Tibetan areas, and the challenging experience of "repeating one's mistakes", including snow-capped mountains, glaciers, sacred mountains and sacred lakes along the way ... Only Tibet can give you these travel resources.

You can enjoy the snowy plateau along the national highway, or you can challenge yourself to turn mountains into water and turn pagodas. You can go to Shannan to explore the origin of the Tibetan people, feel that if Ganbu was used as a base in those days and finally unified Tibet, you can also go to Sanye Temple to find the roots of Tibetan Buddhism and learn about the legendary missionary life of Master Lotus Peanut from murals.

Many unique and unique resources have established Tibet's unique tourism status and can also give you a unique travel experience.

2. Yunnan

Besides its rich natural tourism resources, the integration of multi-ethnic and unique cultures is the highlight of Yunnan tourism. There are 15 ethnic groups in Yunnan, including Han, Hani, Yi, Zhuang, Miao, Lahu, Naxi, Yao, Jingpo, etc., and the ethnic minorities are staggered, showing that they live in mixed communities and live in small communities, and all ethnic groups merge with each other, creating a rich and splendid culture.

You can play along the classic routes: Kunming, Dali, Lijiang, Shangri-La, and see the mountains and water all the way. Dianchi Lake, butterfly spring, Cangshan Mountain, Erhai Lake, Yulong Snow Mountain ... You can also find a quiet corner in Shuhe and Lugu Lake, do nothing, and stay in a daze.

The tropical style of Banna in Xichuan, the exotic atmosphere of Ruili, the wonder of nature lamented by Tengchong Rehai, and the Yi people in Chuxiong experienced the life of ethnic minorities. You can go to Pu 'er to have a leisurely tea, or you can go to Dulong to find the mysterious tattooed girl ... Many ethnic groups have created various unique customs and cultures, and the list goes on. As long as you have enough time, the trip to Yunnan will not make you repeat or monotonous.

Third, choose

After careful consideration, it is still difficult to choose. Finally, I feel that you can weigh it from several specific situations.

first of all, your age. If you are still young and have plenty of time to be chic, there is actually no need to worry too much about where to go. For you, it is just a question of where to go first and then where to go. Because you can achieve the goal of going to two places that are not easy to choose at any time.

If you are not young, it is suggested that you choose Tibet first. Since everyone thinks that Tibet is a must-see place for life, we should finish our trip to Tibet first while our arms and legs are still flexible. We rule out the factor of high rebellion. Traveling in Tibet requires physical strength, and transferring water to stupa requires physical fitness. Mount Everest base camp, Ramlaco, not to mention Gangrinboqi, has turned to mountains. Even if you don't have any high rebellion, it is too different from the plain area, and you need your physical fitness and good physical strength to support it. Yunnan, as the second step of Yunnan-Guizhou Plateau, has much lower requirements for physical fitness.

secondly, your time. If you have enough time, I suggest going to Tibet. In this way, you can have enough adaptation process and avoid some unnecessary troubles. Moreover, it is not easy to go to Tibet, and it is also limited by the season and climate. You can try to visit as many places as possible when you go there. Yunnan, on the other hand, can make a trip even in three or two days, and there is no restriction of climate and season, so it can be visited many times and at any time.

In short, how to choose between these two hard-to-choose places, I personally think, should consider your own age, physical fitness, time and other specific conditions, and adopt a choice that suits you.

Why don't you choose to drive to Tibet from Yunnan? Why not go to both places? Such a simple question needs to be considered. There are many routes to Tibet, including two from Chengdu, two from Yunnan, one from Xining, one from Xinjiang, one from Nepal and one from Xi 'an.

There are two routes to Tibet from Yunnan. The first one is the 214 Yunnan-Tibet Line, and the second one is the Bingchacha. Theoretically, these two routes start from Dali, but in fact, it doesn't matter if you start from Kunming. Then, when you enter Yunnan, you can turn around in Kunming, Xishuangbanna, and after you come back, you can visit Dianchi Lake and Jiuxiang Cave in Kunming, including Shilin.

A veteran hiker can take a walk and wipe the route. Because this route is still a cross-country route at present, it needs a little courage, and the requirements for vehicles are also relatively high. Generally, hikers suggest taking the side of National Highway 214. From the side of National Highway 214, they will pass Meili Snow Mountain, Shangri-La and Mangkang Salt Well, and finally arrive at Mangkang for accommodation. From Mangkang, they will enter National Highway 318 and enter Tibet.

Yunnan is a place of ethnic minorities, which is worth visiting. Xishuangbanna, Lijiang Shangri-La in Dali, Jade Dragon Snow Mountain and Ruili in Tengchong are basically ethnic minorities, which are particularly interesting and rich in cultural connotations. It is a rare tourist attraction and worth visiting. Tibet, as a place of great faith, is the dream of many people, so going to Tibet is everyone's life.

ok, that's all! If you have any other questions about self-driving in Tibet, you can always pay attention to WeChat official account and go on road trip in Tibetan areas. If you reply to the key words, you will have a series of common sense about self-driving in Tibet. Finally, I wish you a good time.

1. Going to Tibet is not so terrible, but you really have to make up your mind

Although there are various fancy ways to go to Tibet, such as airplanes, trains, cars, self-driving, cycling and hiking, and the tourist reception facilities in Tibet are not blank, you really have to make up your mind to travel to Tibet. Because you need to consider why and how to go. .

Because, when you go to Tibet, you don't mean flying to Lhasa. You can take a photo in the Potala Palace Square and send it to your circle of friends, and you will say that you have gone to Tibet. Going to Tibet is more like a choice of lifestyle and attitude towards life, so many people will be so entangled. Maybe going to Tibet is too much content, and going to Tibet is too heavy. So it's time to have this idea. Let's go!

which would you choose to travel, Tibet or Yunnan?

Second, when you come to Yunnan, you can really say that you will come

Compared with going to Tibet, coming to Yunnan is really less complicated. There are no obstacles to choice, and there is no worry about altitude sickness. The beautiful food in Yunnan attracts people's attention like a mystery. A few years ago, there were all kinds of worries about transportation and tourism facilities. These years, such worries are superfluous. On the contrary, there are all kinds of blackness and all kinds of negative news, but mature tourists will still have a steelyard in their hearts!

There are really many choices in Yunnan, which can meet your various needs. Whether it's the slow life, poetry and distance by the Erhai Lake, or the Dai customs of Ban Nadong, or the border towns of Hekou, Daluo and Ruili. Even if you can't go to Tibet, Meili Snow Mountain, Rain Collapse, Shangri-La ... these are the sun and moon in your heart!

Yunnan is just at a suitable point in terms of expectation and accessibility, so Yunnan will become a destination in many people's minds.

the patient with difficulty in choosing means that he wants to go to both, but he really doesn't want to choose.
