From Lijiang to Shangri-La, why is it better to choose carpooling?

Shangri-La is not far from Lijiang, less than 2 kilometers, with beautiful scenery along the way. There are many good scenic spots on the way, such as the First Bay of the Yangtze River, Tiger Leaping Gorge, Xiaozhongdian Flower Sea, etc. It is more free to travel by car, and the itinerary is also very controllable, so that you can visit these good scenic spots. It is particularly inconvenient to go to these scenic spots by public transportation. First, because the public transportation time is fixed, your trip is very passive. Second, it is unsafe. There is no direct bus to Tiger Leaping Gorge Scenic Area, and you have to transfer to a van on the way, which is still unsafe for you who are new here. I suggest you pack a car to go.

from Lijiang to shangri-la, why is carpooling better than driving?

experienced drivers who travel by car should automatically ignore this one.

I'm new here and I'm not familiar with the road conditions; From Lijiang to Songyuan Bridge in Shangri-La Development Zone, the whole journey is high-speed, but the development zone to Xiaozhongdian is a second-class asphalt road, with a long uphill road, narrow curved roads, poor road conditions and more carts coming and going; From Lijiang to Shangri-La, the altitude is gradually increasing. If you go by car, you can't drive at all after altitude sickness, which seriously threatens your own safety.

1. How to choose the car pool service? Let me tell you in detail now.

1) choose a regular tourist vehicle.

Regular tourist vehicles will sign a formal charter contract with you; The daily maintenance of the vehicle is better and the vehicle is in good condition; Complete procedures, safer driving and better after-sales service.

2) the price of chartered car, model price, taxi, car, 5 yuan/day (near the urban area), 7-9 tourist commercial vehicles, 11 6 yuan/day, 8 yuan/day off-road vehicle

Short distance: 8 yuan/day long distance: 1 yuan/day Tips

1. Shangri-La believes in Tibetan Buddhism. When entering Tibetan areas, it is necessary to respect the culture and beliefs of Tibetan people and not to talk about politics. Don't go to watch the Tibetan celestial burial; When Tibetans present Hada, they should put their hands together and lower their heads so that Tibetans can wear it around their necks and cannot take it off immediately. When entering the temple, you should enter with your left foot and leave with your right foot. Don't step on the threshold. You should take off your hat and visit the temple clockwise. Don't make any noise, touch the Buddha statue or litter at will in the Buddhist temple, and don't make videos or take photos in the Buddhist temple without permission. It is forbidden to refer to Buddha statues, Thangka, scriptures and murals with your fingers, and you should point up with your palm to show your respect; Don't touch the heads of Tibetans casually.

2. Shangri-La has a large temperature difference between day and night. Even in the morning and evening of summer, you should wear a long-sleeved coat. From mid-October to next April, Shangri-La is very cold, especially in December, January and February. Down jackets, thick cotton-padded clothes and jackets are all necessary. Shangri-La has strong ultraviolet rays, and sun hats, umbrellas and sunscreen are also necessary. When sleeping at night, put a pot of boiled water in the room and open the lid to increase the humidity of the air and alleviate the discomfort caused by the dry climate in the plateau.

3. Will there be altitude sickness in Shangri-La? The answer is that not everyone will have it, so don't be nervous. The average altitude of Shangri-La is around 3,3. Generally speaking, when people in the plains quickly enter the plateau above 3, m, altitude sickness will occur. Most people should go by car from Lijiang or Dali, so their bodies will have an adaptation process, and the probability of altitude sickness is low. Self-relaxation and psychological suggestion, look at the scenery along the way and divert your attention. Under normal circumstances, the symptoms of discomfort will gradually disappear. However, if the reaction is particularly severe, it must be sent to a nearby hospital for treatment as soon as possible. If it has not been alleviated, it needs to be withdrawn to the plain as soon as possible. Do a good job of keeping warm, avoid catching a cold, and have a good rest can make you better adapt to the plateau environment. Matters needing attention

If there are many people, it is convenient and cheap to charter a car. There are two bus stops in Lijiang, so you must know which one to go to when you go. Generally, there are more cars at the new passenger station in Lijiang and fewer cars at the high-speed passenger station. It's also very convenient for passengers to buy tickets. Every bus can pay attention to a WeChat official account by scanning the code, and you can buy tickets online. Finally, I suggest that you book tickets one day in advance in Shangri-La or Lugu Lake, so as not to delay your trip.

It's convenient to take a taxi in Shangri-La, and you can also choose to take a bus. It is very convenient to buy tickets from Lijiang to Shangri-La at the passenger station, and you can buy tickets online in advance, such as Ctrip's "bus tickets" section.

The starting price of Shangri-La taxis is generally 3km. Within 3km, it is 1 yuan. Over 3km, it is 2.5 yuan per kilometer. You must let the driver hit the meter. You don't know when you will get stuck without hitting the meter. It is cheaper to hire a car to take a scenic spot than to take a taxi. There are many minibuses there, and taking a taxi to the scenic spot depends on bargaining. If you hit the meter, drivers don't like to go.

Bus tickets from Lijiang to Shangri-La are popular. It is recommended to buy them three days in advance, because you can sit in the front, but not in the back. It is too carsick, and old people and children can't stand it. Bus tickets can be booked online.
