Tested for 5 years, there are really few people going to Shangri-La during National Day!

I have been to Shangri-La for 5 years, in spring, summer, autumn, and winter! If you don't want to be crowded during National Day and want to travel to a niche and less popular place, then Shangri-La is really suitable! Niche play, sharing this route with everyone! - 🌟Must-visit attractions: 📍Napa Lake: In autumn, it is a golden ocean, with cattle, sheep, villages, and tens of thousands of migratory birds 📍Tiger Leaping Gorge: Go see the Jinsha River from the textbooks, the river rushes forward between the canyons 📍Dukezong Ancient City: Slow down, stroll through the ancient city, and experience the unique religious culture 📍Songzanlin Monastery: Known as the "Little Potala Palace", built on the mountain, majestic and magnificent 📍Pudacuo National Park: White leaves in autumn frost, blue lake waves, green pines and yellow leaves, breathtakingly beautiful - 🌟Niche attractions sharing: 📍Lijiang National Astronomical Observatory: The atmosphere is clean and transparent, with low extinction, excellent seeing, and many clear nights, the telescope can observe a large area of the southern hemisphere 📍Gemini Manor: The "stairway to the universe" for "star chasers", with more than 50 sets of remote automated astronomical telescope systems 📍Old Medicine Mountain: Overlooking the beautiful scenery of Haba and Yulong Snow Mountains, overlooking the Jinsha River, an almost deserted paradise 📍Yunji Wild Luxury Camp: Located on Old Medicine Mountain, with the best viewing platform for the golden mountain at sunrise, full-floor glass homestay, facing the snow mountain. - 🌟Activities: ✅Star chasing at the observatory: Face-to-face communication with astronomers at the National Astronomical Observatory, stargazing with telescopes at Gemini Manor, astronomy knowledge classes, observing meteorites and sunspots, taking starry sky photos, and staying in starry sky-themed rooms at Gemini Manor. ✅Camping on Old Medicine Mountain: Hiking and horseback riding in the mountains, eating barbecue/hot pot, watching Yulong and Haba Snow Mountains, watching the golden mountain at sunrise, stargazing at the snow mountain ✅Bird watching at Napa Lake, hiking in Pudacuo, travel photography at Songzanlin Monastery, strolling in Dukezong Ancient City… - 🏨Accommodation: 🔹Gemini Manor Astronomical Theme Homestay: Constellation theme 🔹Shangri-La 5th Meteorite·Light Year Hotel: Oxygen supply in rooms 🔹Yunji Wild Luxury Homestay: Full-floor windows, rooms facing the snow mountain - 🗺︎Itinerary sharing: D1 Lijiang D2 Lijiang-Baisha Ancient Town-Gaomeigu National Astronomical Observatory-Gemini Manor D3 Gemini Manor-Napa Lake-Songzanlin Monastery-Dukezong Ancient City D4 Shangri-La-Pudacuo-Dukezong Ancient City D5 Shangri-La-Tiger Leaping Gorge-Yunji Outdoor Camp D6 Yunji Homestay-Lijiang - ⭕Tips: 🔸Be sure to bring thick clothes when traveling during National Day, especially in the mountains where it is very cold in the morning and evening 🔸The altitude is relatively high, you can bring altitude sickness medicine, oxygen bottles, etc., and avoid strenuous exercise. 🔸It is easy to lack oxygen at night when staying in Dukezong, so try to choose accommodation with an oxygen generator, and open the windows when going out during the day. 🔸Many private kitchens in Shangri-La do not list prices on the menu, you may be overcharged, so be sure to ask for the price first.
