I declare that the people of Sichuan have their own Amazon rainforest! ! !

My friend and I discovered it in the vicinity of Chengdu A giant botanical garden that seems to have been lost in prehistoric times! It is the closest tropical rain forest to Chengdu! ! Perfect for a weekend day trip~ The Alsophila Valley, which dates back 200 million years, seems to have accidentally entered the scene of the movie "Jurassic Park". The entire valley is full of giant prehistoric Alsophila trees. The huge leaves of the Alsophila trees are much larger than those of adults. Everything makes people feel as if they are in the Jurassic rainforest billions of years ago. 📍Location: Alsophila spinulosa Grand Canyon, Shawan, Leshan, Sichuan 🎫Tickets: 10r cleaning fee 🚗Transportation: About 2 hours by car from Chengdu 🌳Tips for taking photos in Alsophila spinulosa valley: ❶There are two gates in the canyon. This time we went down from Gate 1. If you like taking photos, I strongly recommend choosing this side. The scenery is very nice! ❷Those who like hiking can enter from Gate 1, exit from Gate 2, and then return to the parking lot to pick up the car. The whole tour takes about 3 hours. ❸There are thousands of Alsophila trees that lived at the same time as the dinosaurs in the Alsophila Grand Canyon. After entering the canyon and looking up, the sight of them blocking out the sun is truly spectacular, as if you have really entered a tropical jungle. When taking photos, you can use the huge Alsophila spinulosa tree as the foreground and take great photos easily📷! ❹After entering the canyon from Gate 1 and walking down, you will see a cliff with a waterfall in about 15 minutes. This place is very suitable for taking pictures, with a large area of ​​Alsophila spinulosa and moss-covered rocks. 🌳Tips for playing: There are many mosquitoes in the canyon in summer, remember to wear long pants and long sleeves, or bring mosquito repellent! -
