3 days and 2 nights in Ruoergai|Contracting the same grassland as Hayao Miyazaki's comics🌿🐎

#Mainland Travel The blue sky and white clouds are within reach, the yaks are like black pearls scattered on a green carpet, and the sea of ​​flowers leads directly into the set of "Howl's Moving Castle"! 🚗【Route Recommendation】 D1: Chengdu - Emotang Flower Sea (2 hours of crazy photography! Lavender purple hits the top of the snow mountain) D2: Hongyuan Moon Bay (unlock the Yellow River S-bend) - Ruoergai Flower Lake (watch black-necked cranes dancing at the end of the plank road) D3: The first bend of the Yellow River (Buddha’s light shines all over the 18 bends at sunrise!) - Langmusi Town (a mysterious town at the junction of Sichuan and Gansu) 🍖【Grassland version of Manchu-Han banquet】 ✅ Tibetan hot pot: yak meat + wild mushrooms + Tibetan fragrant pig, the soul of the plateau bubbling in the copper pot! I highly recommend the "Zha Xizang Meal" which comes with barley cakes, which is delicious when dipped in soup! ✅ Freshly slaughtered hand-pulled mutton: slaughtered upon order in the herdsmen’s tent, sprinkle with salt and it’s so delicious that you’ll lick your fingers! Look for the tent with a golden roof, it is more authentic~ ✅ Butter tea + tsampa: salty and fragrant milk tea with fried barley noodles. The locals taught me to "poke a hole first and then pour the tea". I drank three bowls in a row! ⚠️Beware: The so-called "highland snow fish" are mostly farmed rainbow trout, damn! 📸【Highlight camera position】 1️⃣ The top of the Yellow River Escalator (1 hour before sunset! Golden river bend + prayer flags = computer desktop) 2️⃣ The corner of the wooden plank road at Huahu Lake (pretend to walk towards the mirror of the sky, and take a wide-angle shot to show the symmetry between the water and the sky) 3️⃣ Horseback riding photo at a herdsman’s house (bargained down to 50/hour, wearing a red cape and riding a horse is so cool!) 4️⃣ Langmusi Back Mountain (get the same as Little Switzerland for 0 yuan, the most magical when the morning mist is lingering) 💡【Blood and Tears Tips】 ❶ Don’t buy oxygen cylinders in scenic spots! The drugstore in town is half the price ❷ Apply sunscreen to death! Ultraviolet rays can teach you how to be a good person in minutes ❸ The temperature difference between morning and night can be as big as four seasons, so it is not an exaggeration to bring a down jacket ❹ Don’t touch a groundhog if you see one! The plague vaccine is not given in vain!
