The unique First Bend of the Yellow River

The unique First Bend of the Yellow River The First Bend of the Yellow River, Not only the sunset and the grassland, the fourth stop of the 'Sichuan Aba Tour' is the First Bend of the Yellow River The First Bend of the Yellow River is located in Tangke Town, Ruoergai County, Aba Prefecture, Sichuan. The high altitude, abundant grasslands, thin air, and large temperature difference here, along with unique natural conditions and local customs, create a different kind of beauty. Here you can see the Yellow River and its tributary, the White River, converge and turn, which is very vast and spectacular. However, because the location of the scenic area is relatively remote and sparsely populated, there are quite a few things to note when visiting 1. The ticket office of the First Bend of the Yellow River is at the intersection of a Tibetan village, and there are still many Tibetans living in the village. In addition to admiring the beauty of the Yellow River, if time permits, you can also stroll around the village. There are also many temples nearby worth visiting. Remember to respect the customs and habits of the ethnic minority areas when visiting. 2. ▲The First Bend of the Yellow River is at an altitude of 3500 meters to 4000 meters. For those who enter the western Sichuan area for the first time, there will be some altitude sickness, so you need to prepare some medicine. 3. The temperature difference in the location of the scenic area is large. It may be short-sleeved during the day and down jackets at night. We went there in August and put on down jackets at night. Especially on the climbing road of the viewing platform in the scenic area, the cold wind is particularly strong, and you need to wear a good scarf and gloves. 4. There is a certain distance to climb the viewing platform. Although they are all well-built wooden plank roads, because of the high altitude and thin air, if you walk too fast, you will obviously not be able to breathe. It is recommended that those with poor physical strength can spend some money to take the cloud ladder to reach the viewing platform. The ticket price for the cloud ladder is remembered to be 60 yuan. 5. You need to do a good job of sun protection in high-altitude areas. Sun hats, sunscreens, sunglasses, etc. are indispensable. The air is dry and you need to drink more water. Generally, there will be hot water provided in the hotel. The conditions and facilities of the First Bend of the Yellow River Hotel in the scenic area are general, but it is considered very good in that area, and you need to book in advance during the peak season.
