Lixian, a secluded ancient village that has blown up on social media

🏨 Jiuzi Village 📍Detailed address: Jiuzi Village, Lixian, Aba 🚉Transportation strategy: Self-driving (Chengdu-Wenchuan-Jiuzi Village) Departing from Chengdu, take the highway to the 317 national road, there is about 10KM of single-lane mountain cement road, with high climbs and difficult overtaking, but there are overtaking spots at intervals along the road. It's not very friendly for novice drivers, it is recommended to have an experienced driver. There is forest fire control about 2.5km away from the abandoned old village, where vehicles can be parked for free. After registering your information, you walk up the mountain, climbing about 300m (motorcycles can go up as tested). ❤Recommended reason: This secluded ancient village in Lixian has been a hot topic on social media. Even if you have been to many places and seen many landscapes, you will still be amazed by this ancient village hidden in the clouds! 🌟Highlights: A peaceful ancient Qiang village, located on a mountain top in the Lixian area of the Western Sichuan Plateau, about 2.5H drive from downtown Chengdu! Surrounded by snow-capped mountains, with clouds drifting and flocks of cattle and sheep, the abandoned old village is full of mystery and wild charm. It is a real wild sanctuary, very suitable for a light hiking leisure trip from Chengdu! 🍽Dining recommendations: There are no supermarkets or snack bars on the mountain, so you need to bring your own dry food; halfway up the mountain, there are two barbecue places facing the snow mountains (Tianmeier & Niaoniao Barbecue), which you will pass on the winding road. You can have barbecue before going up the mountain for a day trip! 📝Tips: 1. The abandoned ancient village is at an altitude of about 2600 meters, there is no risk of altitude sickness, but be sure to keep warm and protect yourself from the sun! 2. The panoramic shooting spot is in the meadow area behind the village, where you can capture the full view of the village and the snow mountains. 3. You can use the window holes of the old village as a framing window to compose interesting shots. 4. The visit can be controlled within one afternoon, and you can return to Chengdu on the same day
