The fourth day (October 4): Cuopugou - Kangding

    Cuopugou, located next to National Highway 318, is the end of our self-driving trip, because it was only open to receive tourists three days before the National Day, and there are relatively few tourists in the scenic spot. After visiting the scenic spot, we will pay 100 yuan for tickets and 90 yuan for sightseeing The feelings are absolutely worth the money for the "view"!      

        The car detours in the scenic area, and from time to time, you can see the heat rising, and the white mist lingering in the valley. The tour guide on the car introduced that this is the first geothermal park in western Sichuan. Numerous large and small geothermal springs are distributed on the hillside. In, the edge of the cliff. The temperature of some water outlets can be as high as 100 degrees Celsius, and you can taste a tender and juicy hot spring egg for only 2 yuan.

The Buddhist Academy that you can see shortly after entering the scenic spot

  An hour later, the car stopped at a place like an alien planet. The snow-capped mountains and meadows that suddenly appeared in front of us exuded a unique mysterious atmosphere. We were shocked by the magnificence of the original ecology.

    After getting off the bus, the sightseeing bus in the scenic area is not far away. The staff is super enthusiastic and friendly, and greets tourists to take the battery car to Cuopu Temple. The Cuopu Temple is not big, but the two alpine lakes next to it once again took us It’s amazing, words can’t describe it anymore, let’s go directly to the picture:

    The location of the Cuopu Temple is close to 4,000 meters above sea level. It may also be because there are many vegetation around it. We did not experience obvious discomfort when walking normally.

   Since we had to go on the road in the afternoon, we made a detour around Cuopu Lake and reluctantly boarded the return bus. After coming down, I ordered a bowl of beef noodles for 45 yuan at the restaurant in the scenic spot. The price is acceptable and the taste is also very good.

    According to friends, if we come in August and September, we can meet super cute pet marmots on the road at any time, and they are not afraid of strangers at all, and can interact with tourists and take pictures at any time.

  Returning to the picture in Kangding, I encountered wind and rain, but I really complied with the sentence: there must be a rainbow after the wind and rain

       Today's drive is close to 400 kilometers. Driving on the plateau for a long time is really easy to get tired, especially the tunnels on the way from Batang to Yajiang, which are 20-30 kilometers long and have a speed limit of 30. Every time I enter the tunnel, I almost pinch my thigh I drove, arrived at Xinduqiao around 7:00 pm, and finally encountered the first traffic jam during the National Day holiday, and finally returned to Kangding City at 11:00 pm, thinking about nothing but sleeping.

The fifth day (October 5) Kangding - Chengdu

I strolled around Kangding city in the morning, had a quick meal in Ya'an on the way back, and went home satisfied...
