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

While most tourists were checking in at the few famous waterfalls along the main road, we held our child's hand and turned into a little unnoticed side path. Then, it felt like we owned the entire bamboo sea. ​| Off-the-beaten-path experience |​ This is not a place you’ll find in guidebooks. It has no name, just a wild trail used by local bamboo shoot gatherers. The path isn’t difficult, but it requires courage and attentiveness. Pushing aside the hanging bamboo branches, the ground beneath was covered with thick bamboo leaves, soft to step on. Sunlight was broken into fragments, scattered on the ground, so quiet that all you could hear were our breaths and birdsong. After about twenty minutes of walking, the sound of water grew louder. Passing through the last patch of bamboo forest, a pond so green it seemed unreal appeared before us. It’s not a designated “scenic spot” in the park, so there were no man-made traces. The water was still, like a huge piece of jade. The child whispered, “Mom, is this where the dragon lives?” We sat on a big rock by the water and ate the fruit we brought. The child drew circles on the water surface with a stick, ripples spreading out, breaking the emerald calm and touching our hearts. No crowded tourists, no noisy horns, just our family and this secret patch of green. ​⚠️ Important reminder (this is not encouraging risky behavior)​​ Exploring wild trails requires a good sense of direction; it’s best to use an outdoor tracking app to record your route. Always prioritize safety and avoid going to overly steep or unknown areas. All trash generated must be carried out to protect this pure place. If your child is very young or has limited stamina, it’s not recommended to try this; you can have just as much fun in the main scenic area. Sometimes, the meaning of travel isn’t about where you go, but who you share unique moments with. In the Muchuan bamboo forest, we found our secret base.

A friend told me that when he passed by Mukawa Danan Town, he was stunned by the beautiful scenery. Because it is undeveloped and located in the mountains, there are not many tourists. It is much more comfortable than going to various artificially developed scenic spots, and there is no need to crowd. After returning home from Emei Mountain during the National Day holiday, I had some time left, so I drove there to experience it. According to my friend's instructions, I directly searched for Mukawa Danan Town Government and set off. It was a high-speed road all the way. When I got off the highway in Mukawa, I thought the road up the mountain would be bad, but it turned out to be much better than I expected. It was paved with asphalt all the way. Apart from the many curves, which required a slower speed, the rest was just enjoying the scenery along the way. It took an hour to drive to the top of the mountain. The town is small, very small, and there are not many people. It is very quiet, and the air quality is excellent. The scenery is also beautiful and natural. I had lunch in the town, all local home-cooked dishes, the taste was good, and it was completely different from the food I eat in the city. The price was also cheap, thirty yuan for two people, four dishes, two meat and two vegetables, I was full. My wife and I don't like to be in the picture, so I'll just post some photos of the scenery. It's much more beautiful than the scenery of many paid scenic spots. If you see this note, welcome to try it out, it's definitely worth the trip. No entrance fee, the minimum consumption depends on what you eat at the local restaurant. Anyway, the price is cheap, and you won't spend much money. There are no crowds, and you don't have to look around and see people everywhere. The photos taken at Mukawa County Danan Bus Station are very good. The local houses are all in the style of the 1980s and 1990s, which is great for taking nostalgic photos. By the way, not far ahead, on the other side of the mountain, is the Mukawa Bamboo Sea Scenic Area. You need to pay for a ticket there, and the scenery is also very good, but it's free here, isn't it also good?

Went there in summer. I think it’s good and still recommend it to everyone. There are collectibles for National Day. ㊙️ 🌞In the scorching hot summer, the Sichuan Basin seems to have turned into a huge hot pot with rolling heat waves, so the summer escape plan is on the weekend schedule of every Chengdu resident. This time we decided to drive to the cool and niche wonderland - Muchuan Bamboo Sea, to pursue a touch of coolness and tranquility💨. Walking into the Muchuan Bamboo Sea is like stepping into a poetic world. ❇️Sudong Feihong🌈, just like the Milky Way from the fairyland pouring down to the human world😲. On the red cliff, a waterfall hangs straight in the air, and then plunges into the emerald green pool like white silk, and the splashing water is like stars. The roar of the waterfall hitting the turtle-shaped rock is like a majestic movement played by nature. The breeze is refreshing, and the greenery in the mountains and valleys is cool. People can't help but sigh, what kind of fairy residence is this, making people instantly forget the restlessness and troubles of the world👍. ❇️Shuiyue Wind Cave is full of mystery. The cave is dark and deep, as if hiding endless secrets. In the depths of Hey Yo Yo, even if you turn the flashlight on your phone to the brightest, you can't illuminate the bottom. The occasional dripping of water and the upside-down bats flapping their wings🦇 can stimulate the great fear of the unknown engraved in human genes. However, the initial fear turned into amazement and surprise when I saw the locals riding motorcycles leisurely through the mountain. This wonderful contrast is unforgettable 🤣! Haha, it is just a hole dug for the convenience of the mountain people on both sides of the mountain to pass, but it allows us who come from the city to experience excitement and coolness. ❇️The Yongxing Lake deep in the bamboo sea, also called Tianchi, is even more dreamy🌊. Take a leisurely stroll along the lake, the lake water is like a mirror, reflecting the blue sky and white clouds, like a natural ink painting☁. As the breeze blows, ripples appear on the surface of the lake, which contrast with the swaying green bamboos, creating a beautiful scene. Along the way, it feels like being in a magical kingdom of animals and plants. Countless small geckos and four-legged snakes shuttle through the grass, adding a bit of agility and vitality to this quiet world. ❇️Climb up the Tonghai Tower and look into the distance. The endless bamboo sea is like a green ocean, with surging waves, extending all the way to the horizon😍. The boundless green gives people's souls an unprecedented baptism and purification. 🌠Just these few attractions, plus the Mancui Bridge, the world's first insect statue, etc. made us linger for most of the day, and there were many other attractions that we didn't visit. Those tourists who said in the reviews that it only takes two or three hours to finish the trip must be special forces. Fortunately, we came to take a look around in person, and seeing is believing. The Muchuan Bamboo Sea is elegant, quiet, and refreshing, and the 40 yuan ticket price is really worth it. 😃 Useful Information 🎯 ⏹️From Chengdu, it takes about 3 hours to arrive by car. 📍Currently, only the South Gate of the scenic area can be entered and exited, and the North Gate is not open🚪. ⏹️You can drive yourself in the scenic area and visit one scenic spot after another, which is very convenient. The road is narrow and has many bends, so you must drive carefully. ⏹️Digging bamboo shoots is not allowed in the scenic area. Caught and severely punished. ⏹️There are many farmhouses in the scenic area where you can eat. But there is only one restaurant open on the commercial street by Yongxing Lake. If there are many people, you have to wait in line for a long time to order food, and the order is quite chaotic. ⏹️There are discounts on ticket prices online. It costs 40 at the door, but only 36 online. ⏹️As long as it is at the bottom of the valley or by the stream, it is cool. Yongxing Lake is still a little hot at the top of the mountain.

qingshang mountain was amazing and awesome to visit

The Danxia rock wall on the three sides of the Feihong Feihong is surrounded by a nearly 300-degree curved rock corridor. A large waterfall plunges from the top of the 100-meter-high Danxia rock wall, which is spectacular! The wonderful thing about Feihong Feihong is here. The waterfall plunges down from the rock wall and squats above the turtle stone on the ground. Under the sun, it forms a curved rainbow. Beautiful.
