From Shangri-La towards Sichuan

Come with us discover this short but intense itinerary, which will make you forget the modern world and reach a wild altitude land in only a few days. Successive valleys, snow peaks with prayer flags on top, altitude passes and plateaus inhabited by yaks and a few farmers will take you to the confines of Yunnan and Sichuan.
