I came to Kangding with my family to experience the celestial wonder of the highland sunshine

⛰【Travel Guide】 📍Detailed Address: Kangding city is located in the eastern part of Ganzi Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture, Sichuan Province. Kangding is situated at the transition zone between the western edge of the Sichuan Basin and the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, serving as the throat of Sichuan-Tibet, an important town on the ancient Tea Horse Road, and a center of Tibetan-Han cultural exchange. 🚗Transportation Routes: ●G318 old road: The traditional route into Tibet, approximately 200 kilometers long, mostly mountain roads, takes longer but offers beautiful scenery. ●Yakang Expressway: About 135 kilometers long, it is currently the fastest route from Ya'an to Kangding, but it is relatively more expensive. ●Baokang Road: About 180 kilometers long, starting from Zhonggang Village in Baoxing County, Ya'an City, it takes about 1 hour by car through Denglong Gully to ascend to a mountain pass at an altitude of 4500 meters, entering the territory of Kangding City, Ganzi Prefecture, then descending the mountain, passing through towns and villages such as Lianghekou Village, Jintang Town, Pengta Village, Maibeng Township, and Guzhan Town, and merging into the 318 line at Guzhan, turning right to Kangding. 🌟Highlights: ●Cuisine: Kangding cold noodles are known for their good elasticity, fine strands, neatly cut with clear edges, uniform thickness, shiny appearance, and they don't break easily when picked up with chopsticks. The texture is smooth, with a spicy, fresh, and tender taste; the mutton soup is deliciously fresh, fragrant, and steaming hot; the konjac chicken has a bright red color, emitting an enticing aroma, with tender and tasty chicken meat, and the konjac fully absorbs the chicken's savory juices. ●Architecture: The meandering city is built along the Pama Mountain and stands facing the Zheduoshui River. Strolling through the small streets, you can see the green tile roofs, high and low, each with its own charm. The covered bridges cross the streets, with painted columns and carved lattices, displaying ancient style and modern charm, fully showcasing ethnic characteristics.
