The map version of this notebook: every place I've written about or driven through, on one simplified map. Pick a pin for a short intro — and what I know around it, gathered from the trips.
This map is simplified for choosing, not for navigating — it shows how the places sit relative to each other, not exact roads. Distances, altitudes and practical details live in the guides and the route planner. The two highlighted lines are the routes written up in this notebook: the five-day loop, and the long run from Chengdu to Yushu.
