hello,
so we are in dali now. 5000 chinese km on the speedometer!
Now moving up north.
the road we took:
the gmaps tag doesnt seem to be working.
short gmap url: dali to shangri-la
update 10/06/2013
The part through the tiger leaping gorge and further all the way to shangri-la was beautiful. Almost no traffic, up and down mountains and great scenery.
We will probably skip Deqin because i dont think there is a road from deqin into sichuan without entering tibet.
Adjusting to the heights now and looking for a nice road to take..tips are more then welcome!
Some ongoing questions:
what great not too be missed scenic roads am i missing?
I read there are some serious road works in Sichuan...what to avoid?
tx..pics will follow..
