2025 Jainca Travel Guide: Must-see attractions, popular food, hotels, transportation routes (updated in July)

Jianzha County, under the jurisdiction of Huangnan Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture, is one of the lesser-known travel destinations in Qinghai. Many may recognize Jianzha for the Kanbula National Forest Park and Lijiaxia Reservoir, but the county town itself is worth exploring. As we drove near the town, we were immediately captivated by the artistic scenery along the Yellow River. ▼ First Glimpse of Jianzha's Riverside Beauty While people often say "The Yellow River is clearest in Guide," this phrase fits Jianzha just as well. Starting from Tongren City, we drove along G213, where the Longwu River merges into the Yellow River before reaching Jianzha. The river's crystal-clear waters mirrored the sky, riverside buildings, forests, and the unique natural landscape—colorful Danxia formations. We spotted a uniquely shaped tree leaning perfectly for a photo op by the river. Posing with it, we became part of the picturesque scene, capturing the moment with our camera—freezing the artistry and adding a poetic touch. Later, we learned from the map that this area is being developed into the "First Bend of the Yellow River Scenic Area." At the time, we were simply drawn in by the unspoiled beauty. ▼ Riverside Park: A Glimpse of Local Life Continuing our journey, we arrived at Riverside Park by dusk, discovering it as a favorite local leisure spot. Grandparents cycled with their grandchildren, friends gathered for photos, and ducks played by the boardwalk—every scene exuded simple, everyday charm. The park, built around the Yellow River's wetlands, features clean, elegant surroundings with riverside trails perfect for walking or exercise. Opposite the park stands the majestic Danxia Mountains—a striking sight for visitors, though locals might take it for granted. Before leaving, we noticed a unique statue and later learned that Jianzha is China's only "Hometown of Ethnic Archery." Additionally, it serves as a high-altitude training base for rowing and canoeing. As a sports-centric town, Jianzha has much to offer for deeper exploration. 🚙 Practical Road Trip Tips 📱 Navigation: Set "Riverside Park" as your destination. 🛣️ Road Conditions: Mostly paved, with some sections under construction.

Escape from the city and yearn for a poetic "Utopia" Muyun Xingxiu is the nearest "distant place" I stayed at a B&B with a great view at the end of September. I finally got what I wanted.

One room, one view, simple and basic style I live in "Ouzhu" and I looked up the Tibetan word for "things follow one's wishes" or "cornucopia". But I prefer "doing things as one wishes", which is closer to my recent state of mind.

I really needed a vacation like this to comfort myself after being so busy these days. I drove two hours with my sister to the beautiful "Lingxiu Jianzha" on the weekend. Although there was a drizzle on the road, But it did not affect the misty scenery in the mountains at all. After successfully arriving at "Muyun Star" Two staff members came towards us and presented us with a noble Hada, which gave us a very ceremonial experience. The overall style of the homestay is very Tibetan aesthetic. From the exterior, the building feels like an art gallery. Whether it is from the aesthetic display or the soft furnishings arrangement, there is a comfortable, soft and immersive atmosphere. When I first learned about Jianzha County It should be from the movie "Five Colored Magic Arrows" directed by Wangma Caidan. You can also see many elements of Tibetan traditional culture in this homestay. I'm so thankful today is a great rainy day I am looking forward to having such a healing weekend with almost only the sounds of nature outside the window. I was sitting on the sofa by the window, working, while my sister Tingyu was sitting on the bed, reading a book... It was a wonderful weekend. The next day we woke up and had breakfast The entire valley not far away was filled with clouds and mist. It really feels like living in a fairyland. It makes people unable to take their eyes off and feel the life they long for, walking in the mist between the mountains. In fact, our lives are filled with trivial matters. It is necessary to have such an environment. Keep your inner peace, calm your inner voice and regain your curiosity about the world Go hiking in nature, read, observe plants and creatures, feel the wind, and go to the mountains where you can touch the clouds. This is often the scenery and experience. Only in this way can we calm down and feel the world and love life. "Walking on the cement floor for a long time The feeling of stepping on the grass suddenly is really great. This place is very suitable for a weekend nature therapy short trip with family and friends. : Two hours drive about 120 kilometers :Navigation Qinghai Province Huangnan Prefecture Jianzha County Nengke Township Degan Village "Muyunxingxiu"

Enter from the east entrance and exit from the west entrance of Qinghai Kanbula National Geopark, then follow the navigation to Jiangxi Gou Town, Qinghai Lake. The journey is breathtakingly beautiful! The scenery of Kanbula National Geopark is impeccable. It has unique Danxia landform earth forest, colorful dense coniferous and broad-leaved mixed forest in late autumn, ancient religious culture, majestic power station dam, and beautiful canyon reservoir area. It combines natural and cultural landscapes in one. It is important to emphasize here that the Kanbula Scenic Area is located on National Highway 310. If you want to visit, you need to spend 45 yuan to buy a ticket to enter the scenic area's sightseeing platform. If you are passing by, tell the staff that you are going to Guide, do not enter the sightseeing platform (there are people checking tickets in the sightseeing platform parking lot), take a photo of the license plate, and pass through the scenic area within an hour and a half, and you don't need to buy a ticket. For me, this is not a problem. I came here specifically and bought a boat ticket to board the boat for a tour at Nanzonggou Pier. Frankly speaking, I can see a lot of scenery while passing by, especially the colorful mountains in late autumn. But in my personal opinion, the view on the sightseeing platform is indeed better, and the Danxia earth forest viewed up close in Nanzonggou is even more shocking. After exiting Nanzonggou, we headed towards Guide and followed the Amap map to navigate to Xigou, Qinghai Lake. Unexpectedly, the scenery along the way was so beautiful that we stopped and took photos along the way. The 3-hour journey turned into almost 5 hours.

Kanbula National Forest is a great place in Qinghai to see unbelievable mountains, gorges and nature. But to go there by car you need certain driving skills and a good vehicle. We tried to reach the top starting from Kanbula Town on the East side. You can climb up well to the sightseeing platform above the dam for the Yellow River. Enjoy the view and spend some time to charge your batteries for the next hour of driving. The winding road up to the first village of Lade will be challenging since the road is narrow and the street conditions are not good. Drive slowly will give your passengers time to enjoy the stunning view above the dam but the driver should keep the eyes on the road. While climbing up the street condition got unfortunately worse and at the last serpentine we gave up since the road changed into a partial gravel road. Plenty of people made it and will surely enjoy the top of the mountain and the streets after. If you are not skilled, you may try the other road from Guide and you can also reach the top after many winding roads. #drive #qinghai #mountain
