First, Sichuan-Tibet Road: the most dangerous road

The Sichuan-Tibet line may be the most dangerous road in the world, but it is also the most beautiful road in Tibet.

First, take the Sichuan-Tibet line and don't be afraid of mountain reaction. The Sichuan-Tibet line starts from Chengdu, Sichuan Basin, and its altitude gradually rises to the west. Although there are many mountains above 4000 meters above sea level, they only pass briefly, and most areas of the Sichuan-Tibet line are rich in vegetation and dense forests, so you don't have to worry too much about the mountain reaction caused by hypoxia.

Second, there is no need to eat and drink on the Sichuan-Tibet line, which is the route with the largest number of counties and towns along the way into Tibet. In addition to all kinds of home cooking, there are many delicious foods and wild animals along the way, so you can feast your eyes on them all the way. However, because the Sichuan-Tibet line is often broken, you should buy some compressed biscuits before leaving Chengdu in case of emergency.

Third, take the Sichuan-Tibet road and pay attention to rain. Your camera, equipment, clothes, tent, sleeping bag, etc. Be waterproof, or you will lose a lot.

Fourth, it is best to take the Sichuan-Tibet line and drive by car, because the Sichuan-Tibet line has not fully opened long-distance buses so far, and there are cars in most places, but there are almost no cars after Bangda.

Fifth, there are many landslides along the Sichuan-Tibet line. Generally, mudslides and landslides occur in several sections such as Bangda Basu, Bomi and Bayi Town. Once the road is broken, it is common to be blocked for a few days, so these dangerous sections should pass in time when the weather is good to avoid being blocked on the road. Therefore, it usually takes about 15-20 days to prepare yourself enough time to take the Sichuan-Tibet route, and the season should be between May and June or 9- 10. It is difficult to walk in the rainy season in July and August.

2. Yunnan-Tibet Road: A journey full of various customs.

The Yunnan-Tibet line starts from Dali in Yunnan in the south and reaches Mangkang in Tibet in the north, which is the most colorful route to Tibet.

First, the Yunnan-Tibet line passes through the most ethnic minority areas along the way. Starting from Dali, you have entered a colorful world of ethnic minorities.

In Dali, there are Tibetan, Miao, Naxi and other ethnic groups, as well as the famous "foreigner street"; After going north to Lijiang, you entered the Tibetan area of Yunnan, but this area is economically developed. Zhongdian and Deqin became tourist cities. Every holiday is crowded with people, and every scenic spot has vendors selling you cheap souvenirs.

After Deqin, the land was vast and sparsely populated, but after entering Tibet, there was an eye-catching Catholic church in a small village, and there was a century-old "civilization" from the west in this mountain canyon.

Second, the route between Yunnan and Tibet is not guaranteed. The Yunnan-Tibet highway from Deqin to South Road is very good, but after passing Deqin and entering the Lancang River Canyon, the highway, like the Sichuan-Tibet line, often has mudslides and landslides.

Because this road has little economic and military effect, and there is no strong highway maintenance force, it is often broken and blocked for half a month. Some sections feel more dangerous than the Sichuan-Tibet line. If you are not fully prepared, you'd better not take this road.

3. Qinghai-Tibet Road: the most respectable route to Tibet.

The Qinghai-Tibet Highway is an asphalt pavement and is open to traffic all year round. This is the busiest highway among the four routes to Tibet. Many of them said it was difficult to enter Tibet. In fact, you can drive a Li Xia to Lhasa on the Qinghai-Tibet Line.

First, taking the Qinghai-Tibet line will have a mountain reaction. It is 100 kilometers from Golmud to Kunlun Mountain Pass at an altitude of more than 4000 meters. Many people here will have some altitude sickness, but as long as they drink more water and have a good rest, there will be no big problem.

Second, there are many good cars on the Qinghai-Tibet line, but because of the high speed, fatigue of drivers and the most traffic accidents, you should be more careful when taking the Qinghai-Tibet line.

Third, there are many wild animals along the Qinghai-Tibet line, including Tibetan antelopes and Tibetan wild donkeys, but it is difficult to take good photos because the distance is too far and the lens of our camera is too short.

Fourth, it is convenient to eat and refuel on the Qinghai-Tibet line. There are many accommodation points along the way, and most restaurants are noodle restaurants opened by Hui friends.

Fifth, don't listen to people say how high and dangerous Kunlun Mountain Pass and Tanggula Mountain Pass are. In fact, if there is no monument in the mountain pass, when you drive there, you don't even know it's a mountain pass. The Qinghai-Tibet line is on the plateau platform, and the mountain is gentle. There is no mountain canyon like the Sichuan-Tibet line, but the average altitude is above 4000 meters. This road is called the road to heaven.

4. Xinzang Road: a national road paved in the sky.

Compared with the other three routes into Tibet, the new Tibet highway is the most difficult to take.

First, the new Tibet highway, many sections are unpaved subgrade and wasteland. The average elevation of the whole line is higher than that of the Qinghai-Tibet line, and the road conditions are extremely poor. There are fewer restaurants and accommodation, and the conditions are poor. However, the sacred mountains and lakes in Ali attract countless people to embark on this arduous road.

Second, it is best to have a guide on the new Tibet road. Because many forks in the road are in uninhabited places, taking the wrong road will often delay a long time, and the most important thing is to waste precious gasoline. In the new Tibet line, people buy oil from private restaurants at high prices, and sometimes let others sell it to you. The price is not very important. This is Ali's characteristic.

Third, the most challenging section of the new Tibet line is from Shiquan River to Yecheng. 1060 km passes through several hundred kilometers of no-man's land, more than seven Osaka, and the majestic Karakorum Mountain makes people feel small. The desolate and vast no-man's land is shocking, but because there is no long-distance bus on the new Tibet line, few tourists take this road.

Fourthly, Yecheng is a pure small county town in southern Xinjiang, with wide streets, lively markets and beautiful Uighur girls. Everything seems to be in another world. The new Tibet route is the most challenging route to Tibet. Compared with the other three routes, it has no beautiful scenery, charming customs or even smooth roads, but it has the beauty of sacred mountains and lakes, the mystery of Guge Kingdom and the solemnity of Karakorum. Taking the new Tibet line once will bring people a lifetime aftertaste.
