A city no one dares to go to

📍Attraction address: Dagu Glacier Scenic Area 🚗 Transportation to attractions: Dagu Glacier 1) A one-day tour guide to Dagu Glacier from Chengdu | The oxygen-deficient romance at the top of the clouds at 4,860 meters Traffic conditions and travel time 2) Self-driving: Chengdu → Wenchuan → Maoxian → Heishui → Dagu Glacier (260km, about 4.5-5.5 hours) Recommended route: Take G4217 Rongchang Expressway and turn to G213 National Highway. The entire road is paved and cars can pass. !Winter precautions: Anti-skid chains are required from December to March! There are three icy bends within 8km from Dagu Glacier to Heishui County (the Yinshan surface is prone to ice), so it is recommended to slow down to 20-30 yards, and four-wheel drive vehicles are more stable. Group tour: Meet in downtown Chengdu (7:00-7:30 departure), about 4 hours to reach the scenic spot, suitable for beginners or those who want to save trouble~ Altitude and high response Main peak altitude: 4860 meters (direct access by cable car, no need to hike) Symptoms of altitude sickness: headache, tinnitus, shortness of breath (it is recommended to move slowly and avoid running and jumping) Essentials: oxygen cylinder (20 yuan/bottle in the scenic area), ibuprofen, glucose oral solution. Sunglasses and down jackets are required as the wind is strong on the top of the mountain! 👍️Must-visit attractions: Cashmere Had, the most beautiful Tibetan village in China 🎟️Tickets: Tickets: 120 yuan (70 yuan for sightseeing bus + 180 yuan for cable car) Route: 1. Golden Monkey Sea: Tibetan macaques are spotted! Be careful of snacks being snatched away 2. Zenacuo: The blue-green lake is like emerald, suitable for taking reflection photos 3. Dagu Lake: You can stand on the ice in winter, turning it into a snowy fairytale in seconds 4. Ropeway to the summit: Climb 1,600 meters in 15 minutes, pass through the snow-capped mountains and sea of ​​clouds. Must-see at the top of the mountain: 4860 Boundary Monument: Altitude landmark, it is recommended to travel light The loneliest cafe: 360° snow-capped mountain view, hot drinks from 30 yuan Lake of Tears: covered with thick snow, portraits and panoramas are all good Nearby food, no hunger on the return trip Wenchuan: You can stop and eat Tibetan food on the way back Recommended: Yak beef soup pot, butter tea, highland barley cake Heishui County: The nearest supply point to the scenic area Features: Pickled cabbage noodles, blood sausage, hand-pulled meat 💗Other tips: Tips 1. Best time: December to February with beautiful snow scenery, June to August with a constant temperature of 20°C for summer vacation 2. Group tour selection: 100-300 yuan pure tour (including transportation + tickets), to avoid pitfalls 3. What to wear: waterproof and non-slip shoes + multiple layers of warmth (top of the mountain -10°C) Summary: Although the one-day tour is rushed, the cable car directly to the top of the mountain is super friendly! Those who are afraid of cold should go in summer, and those who like to play snow should go in winter. Remember to bring oxygen bottles and cameras. The romance in the clouds is worth going.
