Various slogans on the Sichuan-Tibet line

The Sichuan-Tibet line is the only way in life. People usually take the national highway 3 18 or 3 17.

The Sichuan-Tibet line is both dangerous and abusive, and there is beauty hidden in the extreme danger.

However, the better Yuexiu 3 18 and 3 17 are, some riders feel that they have lost their precipitous and beautiful fun.

Next, I will introduce the Sichuan-Tibet Line-Sichuan-Tibet Middle Line to you! This is a route that combines the beautiful features of the traditional southern Sichuan-Tibet line 3 18 and the northern Sichuan-Tibet line 3 17!

The Sichuan-Tibet middle line hides things you have never seen in Tibet.

This route is not as famous as the southern section of the Sichuan-Tibet line and the northern section of the Sichuan-Tibet line, and not many people have walked it.

Because this route is almost composed of rural roads and abandoned forest roads, it is not easy to find in navigation.

And the steep city steps here are not less than 3 18. Although it is only a short distance of more than 500 kilometers, it is necessary to climb 8 or 9 daunting mountains.

Rencuo, Tricolor Lake, Zhuomalangcuo, Eight Frozen Dislocation ... These lakes are amazing one after another.

History of Sichuan-Tibet Central Line

"The avenue from Qamdo to Lhasa in the Ming Dynasty has become a lot. In addition to the "Dabei Road" built in the Yuan Dynasty, there is also a "Lugongla Pass from Qamdo West to Lugongla in Lhasa, which is the main road for Duogan and Wu Si Tibet in the Ming Dynasty".

Although this road was not an official road in the Ming Dynasty, it was an important "tea ceremony", that is, the route for businessmen to travel. Later, this road was often used by monks and Ming officials who went to the Han Dynasty. In the Qing dynasty, it finally became the main "official road" for the central government to enter Tibet, the so-called "middle road" of the Sichuan-Tibet line.

At present, the Sichuan-Tibet Central Line should first go from 3 18 to Bangda Town, then from Bangda Town to G2 14, and then turn to Provincial Highway 303 via Bangda Airport.

Most of the 303 provincial highways are in G3 17 and G3 18, and the road conditions are steep, which is much worse than 3 18. Because of this, Luolong, Ruxian and other places along the way are very closed, so the scenery is very primitive and pure.

The little-known Sichuan-Tibet Central Line hides the most primitive appearance of Tibet!

The central line of Sichuan and Tibet is not as perfect as the southern and northern lines of Sichuan and Tibet, so it also retains the most simple folk customs and original scenery.
