A long journey dedicated to the distant lands | Please keep this Sichuan-Tibet travel guide well

Travel is a ritual of life, a cure for oneself. Drive and embark on a journey, enjoy the beautiful scenery along the way, and leave the hustle and bustle of the world behind. 👇Please keep this Sichuan-Tibet self-driving travel guide well, it is for you who are not content with mediocrity and love life🔆. 🧳Preparations before departure ▶️Driver's license, vehicle registration certificate, ID card, cash💰 (preferably in bills, as many places do not accept coins) ▶️Start taking 'Gaoyuan An' daily two weeks before departure to acclimatize your body💪🏻, and experience no significant symptoms of altitude sickness throughout the process. ▶️In addition to daily toiletries, SPF50 sunscreen, sun hats, sunglasses, and after-sun repair masks, etc., I even brought whitening pills😂. ▶️Band-aids, cold medicine, cooling oil, muscle pain relief plasters, alcohol disinfectant wipes ▶️Various charging heads, data cables, power strips (some hotels have few sockets), power banks ▶️Breathable and comfortable (and of course, good-looking😌) clothing, warm packs (to prevent sudden temperature drops), dry hair caps, personal hair dryers (hotel ones are quite basic), hiking shoes, and more than two pairs of sports shoes for replacement, slippers. ▶️Ladies, prepare your sanitary products. 💁🏻‍♀️tips 🔺In the scenic area, taking photos with Tibetan mastiffs, yaks, and other animals costs about 20 yuan. 🔺Some locals sell things like wolf teeth and amber. If you have no desire to buy, it's best to stay away and not chat casually. Do not appear alone beside them, especially women. 🔺You can try the mobile coffee shops☕️ you encounter on the self-driving route. 🔺In addition to the classic Medicine King Mountain and Potala Palace Square, the nearby Zongjiao Lukang Park offers even better photo opportunities📸. 🚗Self-driving route 1⃣️ Shanghai✈️Chengdu 2⃣️Chengdu (depart in the morning) - Luding - Zheduo Mountain - Sidingcuo - Xinduqiao 3⃣️Xinduqiao - Jiagenba - Gaersi Mountain Heishi City - Yajiang 4⃣️Yajiang - Tianlu Eighteen Bends - Litang - Maoya Grassland - Mei Hai Viewing Platform - Batang 5⃣️Batang (Jinsha River) - Mangkang - Dongda Mountain Pass - Zuogong County 6⃣️Zuogong - Nujiang 72 Turns - Baxoi - Ranwu Lake 7⃣️Ranwu Lake - Guxiang Lake - Bomi 8⃣️Bomi - Lulang Forest Sea - Sejila Mountain Pass (Namjagbarwa) - Nyingchi 9⃣️Nyingchi - Mila Mountain Pass - Sigongla Lake - Lhasa 🔟Lhasa - Xiongmeido (participate in the Lhasa Self-driving Tour Convention) - Lhasa
