This section of the road is a mountain road with many twists and turns. It is easy to get motion sickness. You can prepare motion sickness medicine or glucose, which are very useful. 2️⃣You can buy oxygen bottles in advance before departure. One bottle is about 8 yuan in Chengdu and 15 yuan in Aden. 3️⃣Travel lightly, just bring what you need and carry a small bag. Because the hiking distance is long and the altitude is high, carrying too much can easily make you doubt your life. 4️⃣The ultraviolet rays in Aden are strong and the wind is relatively strong, so prepare sunglasses, hats, sunscreen, lipstick...you can use them all 5️⃣For accommodation, it is recommended to stay in Shangri-La Town, which has complete facilities. Other Daocheng counties are too far away, and the altitude of Riva Town is too high. If you go in the peak season, you can book a hotel in advance.
