We had breakfast at the hotel at 7:00 on May 8th, 2018, and set off on the road at 7:30. The day's itinerary is along the 318 National Road all the way, the destination is Daocheng, about 330 kilometers from Xinduqiao to Daocheng, time to go one day. However, this trip is also the most beautiful section of the 318 National Highway. There are Yajiang River and Litang along the way. There are 18 scenic spots, Xiong Zongka, Kazi Lashan, Zhazi Shenshan, Rabbit Mountain and Haizi Mountain. The 318 National Highway is not the most beautiful scenery on the west of Sichuan Road. It is really a road on the road.

318 The Sichuan-Tibet line usually refers to the 2142-kilometer section of the 318 National Highway from Chengdu to Lhasa. It was officially opened to traffic in 1958. From the Ya'an Line, the south line separates from the national road 108 and crosses the Erlang Mountain to the west. The 318 Sichuan-Tibet South Line is known as the “Chinese Landscape Boulevard” on the 30th parallel north latitude. We are walking on the 318 South Line.

At 9:40, first arrive at the 18th Pan. There is a viewing platform on the side of the road. It is the best place to watch the 18-disc Panshan Highway. The 18th plate is a section of the 318 National Road that has been turned over 4,659 meters above sea level. The road is winding and twisting, like a streamer that slides down the air, and it is surrounded by layers.

10:05, we arrived at Xiongzongka. "Xiong Zongka" observation deck: located between the shearing bend mountain (4659 meters above sea level at the mountain pass) and the Kazila mountain (4718 meters above sea level), near the curved curved tunnel, with an altitude of 4281 meters. Here is the best place to watch the alpine forest grassland. The green forest and the yellow grassland criss-cross and cross each other. The gray-white clouds on the horizon are very low-lying, covering the sky, and the distant mountains are close to the scene.

At 11:20, arrive at Kazila Mountain, Kazila Mountain, at an altitude of 4,718 meters. Due to the higher altitude, the trees are even rarer, mainly alpine meadows. Look at the mountains here, the layers are stacked, the one layer is farther than the one layer, and the one layer is lighter than the first layer. Until the horizon, it is like walking on the 'Tianlu Road'. Kazilashan is a mountain, but it does not feel that it is a mountain. It seems to be a beautiful pasture, which makes people feel relaxed and happy.

At 12 o'clock in the afternoon, we were on a yurt camp on the way, and ate a free second lunch. The lunch was a yak hot pot. On the plateau, the yak meat was cooked and cooked, and the chew was not bad. Swallow it, stuck in the eyes of the scorpion, fortunately there are other side dishes, talking about fullness. After the meal, there was a horse farm and an archery field in the camp. Our team members played a few archery and continued on the road.

After 2 pm, you will arrive at Zhazi Shenshan. Zhazi Shenshan is located in the town of Litang, Lige, in Litang, Sichuan. 4135 Meter, from the county seat 18 Kilometers are one of the five great mountaines that the masses most believe in. The sacred mountain of Zhazi stands on the top of the mountains. The half of the mountain is full of blue-brown rocks, and it is as clean as the ink. The other half is green pine and green, and it is like two worlds. The main entrance of the attraction is closed, not allowed to enter, stop the car, take a few photos on the side of the road, the right to come.

The Haizishan National Geological Park arrived at 2:30 pm. The average elevation of Haizi Mountain is 4,500 meters. The highest peak of the fruit is 5020 meters above sea level. There are 1145 seas in size. Its scale density is unique in China, hence the name Haizishan. It is located between Litang and Daocheng counties. The total area is 3,287 square kilometers, with an average elevation of 4,300-4,700 meters. The plateau is the largest ancient ice body relic on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, namely the “Daocheng Ancient Ice Cap”. The strange stone and the size of the sea are scattered, such as a thousand diamonds that God has lost and shone in the mountains.

For Haizishan, the response of tourists is often different. Some people like it to be "unbelievable". When they get out of the car, they will not leave, but some people are disgusted by their "desolation". In any case, Haizi Mountain has a unique charm that is different from the years of the scenic spot. It is worthwhile for every passing passenger to stop by.

At 3:30 pm, we arrived at the last attraction on the way, Rabbit Mountain. Located in the northern part of Haizishan Nature Reserve, Rabbit Mountain is the only place where Litang goes to Daocheng and Aden. It is 4696 meters above sea level. It looks like a rabbit's ear standing in the wind. The mountain is very strange and grows in the mountains. Above. Looking from afar, it seems that the bunny was frightened and stared at you in panic! Surrounded by steep ice-baked peaks and forests, it is a wonderful reflection of the crystal-clear Haizi Gate.

In fact, the section from Litang to Daocheng has left the 318 National Road, and the road leading to Daocheng Aden is 217 Provincial Road. The road conditions are also good. The scenery is not lost to the 318 National Road. Although the journey is exhausting, after a day's trip. The car still has an uninteresting interest and is full of emotions. It has almost forgotten the discomfort of altitude sickness, and it has gradually adapted to it in a few days, making people get better.

After 5 pm, we arrived at Daocheng County, stayed at Daocheng Shengdi Hotel, and settled for dinner. Daocheng is indeed a tourist city. So many beautiful hotels and restaurants are everywhere. It is obviously an off-season. The restaurants are almost at the door, but the price of meals is still high. The consumption in the scenic spots is much higher than that in the mainland, so it is necessary to measure OK, you can be full.
