Tourist Attractions:?
Nalati Scenic Area: The ticket price is 90 yuan, plus a 45 yuan shuttle bus fee. If you only plan to visit Aerial Grassland, the ticket is valid for 48 hours. The validity period is determined by the purchase time. If the purchase time is appropriate, you can enter the scenic area multiple times within three days. Inside the scenic area, you can also ride a horse (80 yuan per hour) or take a 60 yuan shuttle bus (20-minute ride) to continue deeper into it. If you want to personally experience the beauty of the grassland, you can choose to hike?
Nalati Scenic Area is divided into three tourist areas: Aerial Grassland, Valley Grassland, and Panlong Ancient Road. After visiting each area, you need to return to the ticket center to take a shuttle bus to another area. If you plan to visit all areas, it is recommended to arrange for a whole day?
Accommodation Recommendations:?
Heart-Disappointed B&B is a good choice. The B&B offers scenic rooms and bunk beds. The bunk beds have average conditions. The B&B is about two kilometers away from the scenic area. If you have plenty of time, you can ask the boss to take you there. The boss of the B&B is very nice and worth trying?
Restaurant Recommendations:?
There is a newly opened burger restaurant near the scenic area, with a special offer of 9.9 yuan on a group-buying platform, including a burger and cola, and it tastes good. The price of local kebabs and other food may be on the high side, so it is recommended to inquire about the price before deciding to purchase?
