To be honest, there are many things to pay attention to when visiting Jade Dragon Snow Mountain

Just came back from Jade Dragon Snow Mountain, and I was really shocked! But I also made a lot of mistakes 😭 I read a lot of guides before, but I found that everyone said different things. Today, I will share my real experience with those who are planning to go there. 🏔First, the key points! Equipment preparation: 1⃣You must bring oxygen! The altitude of the mountain is 4,506m, and you will really pant when you climb up to 4,680m. Fortunately, the tour guide reminded us to prepare oxygen in advance, otherwise, I would have felt like lying down on the spot 😂 And the oxygen in the scenic area is very expensive, so prepare it in advance if you can! 2⃣Clothing choice is very important! Wearing too much will be very tiring, and wearing too little will freeze you to death... It is recommended to wear a 3-in-1 jacket! You can rent clothes at the foot of the mountain for CNY 50 each, and you don't need to bring a heavy down jacket. When we went there, it was several degrees below zero at the top of the mountain, so be sure to bring a hat and gloves! ⏰Time arrangement: The weather has been very good recently, which is especially suitable for watching the golden snow mountain! We arrived at Ganhaizi at 7:00 am, and the sunlight shone on the snow mountain, making it golden and beautiful. I couldn't stop taking photos! It is recommended that you don't go too early. I saw someone queuing up at 4:00 am, which is really unnecessary... 🎯Route suggestion: Jade Dragon Snow Mountain ➡ Glacier Park (check in at 4,680m) ➡ Spruce Meadow (perfect for taking photos!) ➡ Blue Moon Valley (so beautiful that you will cry) ❗Important reminders: - Be sure to get off at "Shuiyue Pavilion" when taking the bus to Blue Moon Valley! Otherwise, you will have to spend an extra CNY 50 to take the battery car 😅 - Your phone is easy to run out of battery, so be sure to bring a power bank! The battery drains very quickly when it's cold - Sunglasses are a must! The reflection of the snow is super strong, and you really can't open your eyes without them Finally, I am really grateful to have met a reliable tour guide! Not only did he help us prepare warm baby in advance, but he also reminded us to bring a power bank. We were in a small group of 8 people, and the itinerary was very relaxing, with almost no shopping, and we had a great time throughout the trip. I hope this can help those in need!
