Shangri-la: Pudacuo National Forest Park
Pulacuo National Forest occupies an area of 1,313 square kilometers, to be more specific, it is much bigger than the land area of Hong Kong(1104 square kilometers). So far, it is only partially developed. The surrounding Shudu Lake, Bita Lake and Mili Pool still need to be connected.by green vehicles. The driving distance is along as as 69 kilometers, which will take three to four hours to go through Pudacuo roughly.
Don’t ask me when is the best time for visiting Pudacuo, because the answer is no answer. The sceneries there vary across the whole year with its own unique characteristics. In spring, different kinds of flowers blossom among the alpine meadows; in summer, you can go to the forest for cooling purpose; in autumn, the leaves are in the depth of diverse tints; and in winter, you can just enjoy the blue lakes in the white snow.
The picture on the left is Shudou Lake. In Tibetan, “shu”means cheese, “dou” means stone. Legend said that there was an eminent monk coming to here, then the local herdsmen consecrated a piece of cheese to him. The cheese in this area is as solid as stone, so he prayed: May the cheese here will be as this solid forever, hence the name Shudugang.
