Tourist comments:

It costs almost 1,000 yuan to get to Shangri-La, but you still have to visit Songtsan Temple. My mother is sixty years old, but she still managed to climb the long stairs and listened to the Tibetan tour guide talking about Buddhist philosophy and sky burial. The tickets are too expensive. In fact, they are gone after just a short walk around.

I almost didn’t see the scenery of the lake because it was a bit dry. I returned to the ancient city in the evening and climbed up the prayer wheel of the Great Buddha Temple. I could also see the unique night view of Shangri-La, and there was no need for admission. .

But the purpose of traveling is to relax and see them all. It would be great if the tickets are at a reasonable price.

Looking at the photos, I think Baishuitai is the most beautiful, but the mountain road is too rugged and it takes four hours to get there. Pudacuo was originally very beautiful, but now the two most beautiful scenic spots are closed. I will go to Balagezong tomorrow instead, hoping for good weather, good mood, and good scenery.
