Things about Meili Snow Mountain in Shangri-La that tourists don't know...

I'm so lazy, but I finally decided to write a guide to Shangri-La! Keep these tips in mind! (After coming down from Meili, I heard from other tourists that a car went up the mountain in the early morning two days ago, rolled down the mountain, and everyone died 😭😭😭 So scary. I also went up the mountain at 3 am.) I was scared when I thought about it! - About Shangri-La: Drive to Shangri-La Ancient Town in the afternoon (visit the ancient town and eat delicious food). Drive to Feilai Temple at 3 am the next day to see Meili Snow Mountain. Go down the mountain at 2 pm (check in at Napa Sea and take photos). Return on the third day. 1⃣️ ⬆️Meili Snow Mountain It's actually quite dangerous to go up the mountain in the early morning. 150 km, 4 hours on the road. Most carpooling costs CNY 160 per person (9–11 people). We were lucky to get a ride with a guy driving an Audi, 4 seats. Since I just heard about the car rolling down the mountain, I still recommend that you go up the mountain during the day and stay at Feilai Temple for safety. If you really want to see the beautiful scenery, talk to the driver more when you take the car in the early morning to avoid the driver dozing off! 2⃣️ About the itinerary I drove from Lijiang to Shangri-La (the scenery along the way is beautiful). If you have enough time, you can drive and pass by Tiger Leaping Gorge (if you have time, you must hike once). Homestays are very cheap in the off-season! CNY 200–300 The homestays near Napa Sea have great views, but they are remote and difficult to get to. Food: The prices are very affordable, CNY 80 per person. Yak meat hot pot is about CNY 100, with a lot of meat! The soup is super fresh! Total: Excluding transportation, 3 days, about CNY 600 per person.
