Scenery: The scenery along the way is quite special! Zesangla Sky Garden is pretty good! You can see Gongga Snow Mountain from afar!
Food: It's very average, it's recommended to choose a restaurant where you can get full!
Accommodation: Recommend Kangding Xueyinge Manor B&B, close to the Sky Garden! The overall accommodation environment is normal. Recommend Kangding Qiu Zhu famous B&B, close to the nearby river, the accommodation environment is also normal! (Normal = clean, no bugs, hot water, about the same as Home Inn)
Play: The scenery along the way is very photogenic, places with streams are better for shooting, the evening light is amazing! You can see Gongga Snow Mountain from the Sky Garden, you may encounter the sunset on the golden mountain in the evening (there are coffee shops, small shops, barbecue, dry toilets on the top of the mountain)
Off-road vehicles can still drive up, camping and picnicking are convenient~
ps: Wear a hat, bring hot water, wear thicker clothes, masks! The wind blows hard and the altitude sickness is very uncomfortable
