To Dali, under the high-speed and traffic jam for 1 hours, but starting from Dali to Lijiang, the road is far better than expected, only from the Erhai began to climb the mountain 50 kilometers of poor road conditions. The last section of Heqing County opened a Lijiang Road, the road is excellent.

He said, Jade Dragon Snow Mountain snowline have been rising, there is no snow, snow peaks at eighth, nine peak, visitors ride the cable car tour can only see one or two. He followed Chen Minglin to the village on the edge of the meadow in a circle, eat a meal of Naxi cuisine at his home at noon. Go to visit the Museum of Shuhe ancient street, town.

Lijiang to Shangri-La, ten thirty in the morning, at six thirty in the afternoon to shangri-la. Drive basic on the road today, midway through the first bend on the Yangtze River, Tiger Leaping Gorge, Shangri-La Grand Canyon and the plateau meadow. A driving trip 200 km. Get off to go to the Tiger Leaping Gorge, jump on tiger, tiger, the tiger jumped in the under foot the entire process, needs about three days. We attended the local people tours, tour guide is a small group of Tibetan children, very experienced, brought us not very dangerous hiking routes, too majestic view of the Tiger Leaping Gorge. Tiger Leaping Gorge is normally 58 yuan tickets, the holidays can be discounted.
