[Today's Theme] Arrival Day

All Day:
Check in at the hotel upon arrival (based on your flight schedule).  

For Early Arrivals:
On the way from the airport to the hotel, you may take a 2 km detour into Beina Valley to visit the 1,400-year-old Princess Wencheng Cliff Carvings (also known as the Great Tathagata Buddha Hall).  

Afterward, return to the hotel. If you still have time and energy:  
- Take a short walk near the hotel. 200 meters east, you'll find Yushu's antique and flea market (we recommend browsing but not buying).  
- If time permits, visit the Jiana Mani Stone City (listed in the Guinness World Records as the largest mani stone pile in the world). It's 6 km from the hotel, and a taxi ride costs about ¥13 Yuan one way. A great way to get a first glimpse of local culture!  

Additional Activity (If Today is Not Monday):  
- 3:00 PM – 4:30 PM: Visit the Yushu Prefecture Museum, where a wildlife photographer will give a special talk on Sanjiangyuan National Park and share experiences photographing local wildlife.  
- Evening: We’ll hold a pre-trip briefing where everyone can get acquainted, followed by a presentation (PPT) by the guide outlining the journey ahead.
