Baoxing in Ya'an is a more suitable alternative to the Western Sichuan Plateau for babies with general physique!

There are three spots in total: Qiaoqi Lake, Shenmulei, and Dawagengzha, all of which are very close. You only need a little more than one day to visit, with the highest altitude being over 3800 meters. I didn't see anyone with altitude sickness, so a weekend trip is completely OK. The green lake, snow-capped mountains, streams, waterfalls, and fir trees, you can see all of these here. Although the grandeur of the scenery is not comparable to Western Sichuan, it is closer and without the risk of altitude sickness. Leisurely itinerary option one Day 1: Depart at 8-9 am, Chengdu-Qiaoqi Lake-Shenmulei-Dawagengzha entrance for accommodation Day 2: Wake up at 4 am, walk to Dawagengzha to take the scenic area bus to the mountain top, walk on the plank road, wait to watch the sunrise, and descend around 8 am, leisurely return to Chengdu. Tight schedule option two Day 1: Depart at 5 pm, Chengdu-Dawagengzha entrance for accommodation, stroll around and have a barbecue in the evening Day 2: Wake up at 4 am, walk to Dawagengzha to take the scenic area bus up the mountain, walk on the plank road, wait to watch the sunrise, and descend around 8 am, pass by Qiaoqi Lake on the way to Shenmulei, play for 20-30 minutes, then to Shenmulei, play for 2-3 hours. You can return to Chengdu before 2 pm. The third option is if you don't watch the sunrise, there's no need to stay there, and you can go back and forth in one day.
