Dagu Glacier Has Returned|The winter snow warms the heart

I slowly listen to the sound of snow falling... Isn't this the BGM of Dagu Glacier? My mind begins to yearn for that poetic and picturesque magnificent snowy scenery. Every shot is full of atmosphere. . Location: Heishui County, Aba Tibetan and Qiang Autonomous Prefecture, Sichuan Province 🛤️ ⏰ Opening Hours: 8:00-17:00 🎫 Tickets: Entrance 80 RMB + Sightseeing Bus 70 RMB + Cableway 150 RMB (Off-season 4.1.25 - 9.30.25) . ✅ Must-visit spots: 1️⃣ 4860 Viewing Platform: Located at the top of Dagu Glacier, it is one of the highest viewing platforms in the world, overlooking the magnificent snowy glacier. 2️⃣ Glacier Eye: Two bird's nest-shaped signal buildings, very photogenic. 3️⃣ Summit Café: Enjoy coffee and desserts here while admiring the snowy view outside the window, so cozy. 4️⃣ Golden Monkey Lake: Habitat of the Tibetan macaques; in winter, there are many monkeys here. You can bring some small bread to interact with the monkeys. . 🎯 Travel tips: 1️⃣ The summit is covered with snow year-round at an altitude of 4860 meters, which is quite high, so be sure to bring hats, sunglasses, and altitude sickness medicine 💊. 2️⃣ Dagu Glacier is mainly for snow viewing and playing. Snow means cold weather and slippery roads, so elderly people and children must be very careful. 3️⃣ The shuttle bus in the scenic area runs continuously (about an hour ride). Keep your belongings safe as lost items are almost impossible to recover. 4️⃣ The main attractions are all at the summit. It is recommended to take the cableway up first and visit the attractions on the way down. The sightseeing bus stops at each attraction. . 📝 Suggested itinerary: DAY 1: Chengdu - Bipenggou - Yangrong Hade - Heishui DAY 2: Heishui - Dagu Glacier - Songpan Ancient Town - Jiuzhaigou Entrance DAY 3: Jiuzhaigou Scenic Area One-day Tour DAY 4: Jiuzhaigou Entrance - Huanglong Scenic Area - Diexi Haizi - Chengdu
