Pudacuo in mid-March

In March, ladies can buy tickets at half price because of International Women's Day, but the mandatory sightseeing bus in the scenic area is full price, so the total cost after discount is 104 RMB per person. Taking a Didi taxi near the east gate of Dukezong costs about just over 50 RMB, then you buy tickets to enter the scenic area and take the scenic bus, mainly to visit Shudu Lake. After getting off the bus, you can choose to take a boat for 50 RMB per person, or walk about 3 kilometers to pier number 3. We chose to walk, it's mostly flat terrain, walking around the lake, at an altitude of about 3600 meters, walking while looking and taking photos, it takes a little over an hour. Now is really not a good season, the grass is withered, the weather was overcast yesterday, and the lake water had a reflection from the weak sunlight, which made the photos slightly more colorful. The rhododendrons bloom in May. Personally, I don't think now is the season to visit, the scenery is too ordinary, and with the ticket price, I feel the cost-performance ratio is low. Then I wanted to go to Bitahai, which requires taking a bus back to the main gate. We waited a long time, but there was no sign of departure, nor was there anyone to explain the specific departure time, there were no staff managing the situation. All I can say is that it was just a check-in.
