I am finally driving the legendary G318 Road connecting Shanghai to Lhasa, Tibet. The road is characterized as one of the must stunning roads all over China due to its changing landscapes and high elevation. The peak is at 5130m in altitude before it descends the famous winding road towards Nujiang Canyon. By coincidence on my way I met a very famous Chinese girl called Xiaxia. She recently became famous for walking from Chonqing to Tibet on foot. Join me on this stunning adventure through China's most beautiful region.
