Yunnan/Yubeng: Unprepared Travelers Beware

🌄Skip heaven, head to Yubeng. Nestled in Yunling Township, Deqin County, Diqing Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture, Yunnan, this mystical village is hailed as "Shangri-La's last hidden gem." A secluded sanctuary, Yubeng exudes an irresistible charm. March is the perfect time to visit. Check out this comprehensive guide below👇 📍 Location & Overview: Yubeng Village lies at the foot of the Meili Snow Mountain's Goddess Peak, surrounded by majestic mountains. Divided into Upper Yubeng (elevation: 3,228m) and Lower Yubeng (elevation: 3,054m), it's home to the kind-hearted Tibetan people. Here, you'll find breathtaking snow-capped mountains, lush primeval forests, picturesque meadows, and a rich Tibetan Buddhist culture. It's a hiker's paradise and a perfect escape for those seeking inner peace. 🚗 Transportation: - External Transportation: - By Air: Fly to Lijiang Sanyi Airport or Shangri-La Airport. Lijiang offers more onward travel options, while Shangri-La gets you closer to Yubeng, but altitude sickness can be a concern. Take precautions. - By Train: Take a train to Kunming, then transfer to Lijiang, followed by another transfer to Yubeng. - Internal Transportation: - Bus: Check bus schedules on the "Lijiang Easy Life" or "Shangri-La Easy Life" mini-programs. Take a bus from Lijiang or Shangri-La to Deqin. From Deqin to the scenic area entrance, you can share a ride, hire a car, or take a bus from the passenger transport station. - Carpooling: Approx. 7 hrs from Lijiang (CNY 260/person); approx. 4 hrs from Shangri-La (CNY 200/person). - Scenic Area Shuttle: Purchase entrance tickets (CNY 55/person) after disembarking at Xidang Hot Spring. Shuttles to Upper Yubeng cost CNY 200/person and CNY 260/person to Lower Yubeng. Return trips cost CNY 150/person from Upper Yubeng and CNY 200/person from Lower Yubeng. These prices are per person; chartered vehicles are priced differently. Shuttle tickets are purchased on-site, and departures are scheduled when seven passengers are available. 📸 6 Must-See Spots: - Meili Snow Mountain: Yunnan's highest peak, its main peak, Kawagebo, reaches 6,740m and is the most sacred of the eight great mountains in Tibetan areas. At dawn, the first rays of sunlight paint the mountain gold, creating a breathtaking spectacle. - Yubeng Village: Dubbed "a paradise at the foot of Meili Snow Mountain," Yubeng preserves a traditional Tibetan lifestyle. Open your window to majestic mountain views in this tranquil, fairytale-like setting. - Yubeng Ice Lake: Formed by meltwater from Meili Snow Mountain, this sacred lake is a hidden gem. The trek from Upper Yubeng involves hiking through mountains and primeval forests. The lake, a sparkling emerald nestled among the peaks, is a vision of serenity. - Yubeng Sacred Waterfall: A pilgrimage site for Tibetan Buddhists. Legend says circling the waterfall three times cleanses one's sins. In spring and summer, the waterfall roars with meltwater; in autumn and winter, it flows gently like a silk ribbon. - Ninong Grand Canyon: Hike through the deep Ninong Grand Canyon along the Lancang River cliff path. The rushing river and steep canyon walls offer stunning views. - Xiongnong Base Camp: The site of the 1991 Sino-Japanese joint mountaineering team's Meili Snow Mountain expedition. Experience the challenges and courage of the climbers while enjoying panoramic mountain views. 🍜 Food Recommendations: - Butter Tea: A traditional Tibetan drink with a rich flavor, perfect for warming up and easing altitude sickness. - Barley Cakes: Crispy and fragrant, these cakes are a great energy boost. - Yak Hot Pot: Made with fresh local yak meat, this flavorful hot pot is a satisfying treat after a long hike. 🏠 Accommodation: - Upper Yubeng: If you plan to hike to Ice Lake or along the Nise route, stay in Upper Yubeng. Juese Butter Tea offers comfortable lodging and delicious meals. - Lower Yubeng: Closer to the Sacred Waterfall, Sacred Lake, and Ninong Grand Canyon. Xuelong Inn is a good option with tasty food. Yubeng accommodations are generally pricey, and many lack heating due to electricity issues. Contact your hotel in advance if you are sensitive to the cold. ⚠️ Important Notes: - Altitude Sickness: Take precautions against altitude sickness. Consider medication and avoid strenuous activity upon arrival. - Warm Clothing: Yubeng experiences significant temperature fluctuations. Pack warm layers like a jacket, fleece, and thermal pants. - Sun Protection: High-altitude sun is intense. Use sunscreen, sunglasses, and a hat. - Hiking Gear: Trekking poles are essential (rentals available at inns). Crampons are needed before May. Pack a raincoat for unpredictable weather. - Pack Light: Avoid suitcases. Bring only essential items to ease your hike. - Hiking Safety: Stay on marked trails. Some routes are challenging. Hike with a companion, and consider a guide for difficult routes like the Sacred Lake trail, even if you are experienced.

I had high expectations, and Pod Inn didn't let me down!

I had high expectations, and Pod Inn didn't let me down!

First Look: Deqin Meili Pod Inn Deqin Meili Pod Inn is located 80 meters west of the Wunongding Viewing Platform in Deqin County. The project was designed by BUZZ Zhuangziyu Studio in 2021. The hotel is designed to look like a rectangular box at the foot of Meili Snow Mountain, blending into the mountains. The hotel is quiet and natural, and its exterior is the same color as the snow on Meili Snow Mountain. When it snows, Pod Inn blends into the snow, and the whole scene is covered in white snow. It's as if Pod Inn is part of Meili Snow Mountain. The interior design is very different from the exterior. The public area is mainly black, with black stairs, a black restaurant, black private rooms, and a black water system. Black is the opposite of Meili's white. As two opposite colors, black highlights the white of the snow mountain. The public area has a different view from every window. Whether it's the meditation window, the restaurant window, or the private room window, every window faces Meili Snow Mountain. It's like a natural Chinese landscape painting. Buildings are just a vessel for life, a link to nature. Pod Inn is a medium, a bridge to nature, the snow mountain, the village, and ethnic culture. Here, you can listen to the breath of the snow mountain and look forward to the surprise of the golden mountain. Tips: Book in advance, as the hotel is often fully booked. It's already a little cold in October, so bring warm clothes. Don't miss the starry night on the top floor. It's very romantic. If you want to take a spontaneous trip, Deqin Meili Pod Inn is worth a try!

Push open the window and you will realize the value of Yubeng's snowy mountain scenery hotel

The beauty of Yubeng in Shangri-La needs no words, its beauty is simply indescribable, only those who have visited personally know the shock When you come to Yubeng, accommodation is a must-solve problem. Where to stay is very important. This YOLO leisure is the first tier in the entire Yubeng accommodation industry. YOLO is located in the upper village of Yubeng, which is a bit more convenient to go to the Ice Lake 🚗 To the hotel: Take the off-road vehicle of Yubeng Village and get off at the upper Yubeng drop-off point, then walk down the dusty road, and there are hotel signs along the way. Of course, the hotel also has a shuttle service, which can provide transportation from the Yubeng upper village ticket checkpoint to the hotel. 🏨 Hotel features: The hotel has a total of 5 floors, which is considered to be a larger volume in the entire upper Yubeng. The appearance is also more conspicuous among the surrounding hotels and homestays Although the hotel has 5 floors, there is no elevator. This is also a common problem with Yubeng hotels.
