Four Girls Mountain · Sky City Cliff Hotel, the pinnacle of wild luxury in Western Sichuan

Four Girls Mountain · Sky City Cliff Hotel, the pinnacle of wild luxury in Western Sichuan The wish to "live inside the scenery" is realized here! As a literary youth who loves traveling and is "always on the road," I have stayed in countless hotels, but this time at the Four Girls Mountain · Sky City Cliff Hotel in Western Sichuan, my definition of "wild luxury" was completely refreshed. It is a dream of sleeping alongside snow-capped mountains, sea of clouds, and starry skies. The hotel is built on a cliff at an altitude of 3,180 meters, facing the Yaomei Peak of Four Girls Mountain directly. I stayed in the "Cliff View Room," with 270° panoramic floor-to-ceiling windows extending from the floor to the dome. In the morning, when you open the window, the sea of clouds rushes into the room like a waterfall; at night, lying in the bathtub, you can look up and see the Milky Way. Even more amazing is the infinity cliff swimming pool, where the 38°C constant-temperature mountain spring water collides with the biting cold wind, and the snow-capped mountain peaks are reflected in the pool, as if swimming into a painting. The architecture here is built along the mountain, as if naturally growing out of the cliff: - Cave Bar: a 60-meter-long underground tunnel with an artificial starry sky overhead and snow mountain whiskey at hand, full of sci-fi vibes; Sky Gate - Mirror Floor "Dome Light": symmetrical limestone door frames the sea of clouds, photos look like stairs to heaven; I originally thought the dining at a plateau hotel would be mediocre, but every meal was stunning! - Tibetan Yak BBQ: snowflake-patterned yak meat dipped in secret spicy sauce, so fresh it feels like your head is flying; - Breakfast with freshly brewed butter tea: served with hand-grabbed tsampa and matsutake mushroom fried eggs, a fusion of Tibetan and Han flavors. Altitude sickness-friendly design: every room has full intelligent oxygen supply + floor heating, and independent oxygen equipment is provided. When I had a slight headache, the butler delivered Rhodiola tea within 5 minutes; - Free Tibetan costume photoshoot: choose embroidered Tibetan robes and beeswax headpieces, and the photographer will take you to the prayer flag terrace for a photoshoot. The original photos look like National Geographic covers; - Starry sky cinema every Friday night, wrapped in yak blankets watching "Paths of the Soul," with the Milky Way as the natural screen. The bedding is so soft it feels like being wrapped in clouds, and the bathroom is full of hidden surprises: Dyson hairdryer, smart fog glass (one-button privacy mode), floor heating + humidifier. The most touching detail is the heated toilet seat! At an altitude of 3,180 meters in the mountains, this kind of "urban-level comfort" is truly healing. Itinerary planning route: Chengdu departure → Four Girls Mountain · Sky City Cliff Hotel → Shuangqiao Valley → return Day 1: Chengdu → Hotel (4-hour drive) Drive from Chengdu early in the morning, passing through Rongchang Expressway, Du-Wen Expressway, crossing the Balang Mountain Tunnel (altitude 4,481 meters), enjoying snow mountain and canyon scenery along the way. Arrive at the hotel at noon, experience the Cave Bar and cliff swimming pool in the afternoon, and shoot the sunset golden mountain in the evening. Day 2: Hotel → Four Girls Mountain Shuangqiao Valley (30-minute drive) Spend the whole day exploring Shuangqiao Valley, recommended spots include Redwood Forest, Potala Peak, and Nianyu Dam plank road. Return to the hotel in the evening for hot springs and stargazing. Day 3: Nearby off-the-beaten-path spots → Return If time permits, hike in Mu'erzhai Valley (20-minute drive) or go to Maobiniang Viewing Platform for a panoramic view of Four Girls Mountain, then return to Chengdu in the afternoon. Tips: 1. Strong ultraviolet rays on the plateau, sunglasses and sunscreen are essential; large temperature difference between morning and evening, bring windproof jackets and wool hats. 2. Off-season (November to April) offers better cost performance and more stunning snow scenes. There is no urban anxiety here, only the breath of snow mountains and the flow of sea clouds. If you are tired of "check-in style travel," why not stop by Sky City? Life doesn’t always have to be a sprint; sometimes lying back and watching clouds is the real luxury. Full hotel name: Four Girls Mountain · Sky City Cliff Hotel Address: Group 3, Sida'an Village, Ri'er Township, Xiaojin County, Aba Prefecture (26 km from Four Girls Mountain Scenic Area) Who do you most want to bring here to watch the stars?
