Getting in is easy, getting out is a whole different story.

📍Location: Qicanggou is located north of Chuanzhusi Town, Songpan County, Aba Tibetan and Qiang Autonomous Prefecture, Sichuan Province. It is adjacent to Huanglong Airport and forms the back mountain section of Jiuzhaigou and Huanglong Scenic Areas. 🚗Transportation: To reach Songpan Qicanggou, you can choose from the following transportation options: Take a bus from Chengdu Chadianzi Bus Station to Chuanzhusi Town or Songpan County, which takes about 7 hours. Upon arrival, you will need to hire a car or rent a car to reach the Kaka entrance of Qicanggou. If you are driving, follow National Highway G213 and turn onto Provincial Highway S301 after reaching Chuanzhusi Town. Jiuzhai Huanglong Airport is only 10 km away from Qicanggou, making it the fastest transportation option. 👍️Must-see attractions: Recommended must-see attractions in Songpan Qicanggou: Changhaizi, a long and narrow plateau lake with crystal-clear water, surrounded by mountains, offering a serene and magnificent view. Hongxinghai, the largest lake in Qicanggou, is shaped like a five-pointed star with azure water and towering snow-capped mountains surrounding it. It is considered a sacred lake by the locals. Yuhaizi and Caohai are also not to be missed. Yuhaizi is abundant with aquatic plants, while Caohai is a typical plateau wetland, both boasting pristine and unspoiled scenery. 🎟️Tickets: Songpan Qicanggou is currently free of charge and open to the public all day. 💗Other tips: When visiting Songpan Qicanggou, it is recommended to bring warm clothing and waterproof gear, as the altitude is high, with significant temperature differences between day and night, and frequent rainfall. Pay attention to safety while hiking, follow the guide's instructions, and avoid going alone. Qicanggou is an undeveloped, pristine area, so bring your own food and water. Additionally, respect the local culture and natural environment. Do not swim or fish in the lakes, especially the sacred Hongxinghai Lake.
