Great Viewing Plattform in Danba
Danba is a mainly ethnic Tibetan prefecture in Ganze, West-Sichuan. From Chengdu it's a 5 to 6 hours ride, the average altitude is 2000-2500m. 🏔️ 🌄
There are two main valleys, the western one is with an entrance ticket (around 25RMB), the eastern one is for free and not developed. We choose the eastern one this time. If you drive up the eastern side of the valley, you can find this view plattform with a very small Tibetan temple. You can hike a little and enjoy the view or bring some snacks. Free parking.

Early spring in Western Sichuan is a prose poem written by God for the human world
Spring is the most beautiful season in Western Sichuan, with flowers blooming all over the mountains, the azure sky, white clouds, golden wheat fields, meandering rivers, simple dwellings, and towering Diaolou, together forming a picturesque 'fairyland on earth'.

In Danba I Finally Saw Wild Sichuan-Pepper
If you come to Sichuan, you will taste Sichuan pepper immediately. The famous 'Mala' is a characteristic of Sichuan province and Chengdu. 🌶️
Sichuan pepper grows on small trees and in Danba (West Sichuan, Ganze) I saw it for the first time. It grows there wild and you can just pick it and taste or use it during your cooking.
📍 Danba is a town in West Sichuan and is a Tibetan influcended area. I posted other posts about attractions there. You can visit Danba by bus from Chengdu.
