Dear friends! Many people ask, "When is the best time to visit Western Sichuan?" As a seasoned traveler who visits Western Sichuan five times a year, I can responsibly say: every season has stunning scenery! But if you don’t choose the right time, you might miss half the highlights. This season-by-season guide will help you hit the peak beauty of Western Sichuan precisely~ 🌸 Spring (April-May): Wild flower seas beneath snowy mountains Keywords: wild peach blossoms + rhododendrons + fewer crowds and lower prices ✅ Must-visit spots: - Zhonglu Tibetan Village in Danba: Mid to late April, centuries-old wild peach trees bloom all over the hills, pink flower seas surround the watchtowers, like stepping into the scene of "Heidi and Grandpa" (shoot backlit at 7 a.m., the petals glow!) - Tagong Grassland: Early May, purple wildflowers sprout on the grassland, with Yala Snow Mountain as the backdrop, ride horses through the flower sea (50 RMB/hour, easy to bargain down to 30 RMB) - Shuangqiao Valley, Siguniang Mountain: Rhododendrons bloom brilliantly beside the redwood forest, wild strawberries can be picked by the stream, super fun for kids to pick fruit~ ⚠️ Notes: - Temperature difference of 15°C+ between morning and evening, wear a down jacket plus a light coat (take off the coat at noon to shoot the flower sea, light and photogenic) - May may have light rain, bring waterproof shoes! But after rain, it’s easier to see the full view of the snow mountains~ 🌲 Summer (June-August): A 25°C cool escape Keywords: grasslands and pastures + starry sky and Milky Way + ultimate summer cool spot ✅ Must-visit spots: - Maoya Grassland, Litang: In July, wildflowers carpet the ground in colors, you can see herders pitching tents and milking yaks (10 RMB/bowl, so fresh you’ll lick the bowl!), stay overnight at a herder’s home (100 RMB/night including breakfast), lie down and watch the Milky Way stretch across the grassland - Short trip to Daocheng Yading: June-July has less rain, along the plank road from Chonggu Temple to Pearl Lake, wildflowers follow you all the way, no pressure to walk with kids (1.5 km one way, altitude 3900 m, don’t rush!) - Moxi Park: Meadows turn green in summer, black stone forest looks like an alien planet, at 3 p.m. when the sun shines obliquely, silhouettes are super cool (wear a red dress for strong contrast!) ⚠️ Notes: - July-August is peak season, Daocheng Yading accommodation prices triple! Book a guesthouse in Riwa Town one month in advance (10-minute walk to the scenic area, 200 RMB/night for a room with a balcony) - Prevent altitude sickness! Don’t shower on the day you arrive, prepare glucose oral solution (more effective than Rhodiola) 🍂 Autumn (September-October): God’s spilled palette Keywords: colorful forests + lakes + hiking-friendly ✅ Must-visit spots: - Bipenggou: Late September to early October, the maple leaves on both sides of Longwang Lake turn bright red, take the sightseeing bus to Shanghai Lake, rent a bike to ride around (40 RMB/hour, pick red leaves while riding) - Dangling: Mid-October, hike to Hulu Lake, colorful forests reflect in the lake, like a spilled paint box (horse ride one way 200 RMB, hiking 5 hours, if you have good stamina hiking is freer) - Xinduqiao: The poplar trees along the ten-mile corridor turn golden, any field ridge is perfect for photos, like a magazine shoot (recommend Jiagenba, 10 times fewer people than the main road) 💡 Hidden tips: - Mid-October go to Dangling in Danba for hot springs, naked bathing in wild hot springs while watching snow mountains (don’t be shy! It’s a local tradition~), stay overnight at a hot spring guesthouse, 200 RMB including breakfast and dinner - Bring a beige trench coat to use as a shawl when shooting colorful forests, windproof and versatile~ ❄️ Winter (November-March): Few people, whole snowy mountains to yourself Keywords: snow scenery and hot springs + golden sunlight on mountains + best value ✅ Must-visit spots: - Hailuogou: December to February, you can play with snow tubes on the glacier (30 RMB/time), soak in hot springs while watching snowflakes fall (No. 2 camp hot spring is free for guests, 120 RMB/person for non-guests) - Mugecuo: After the lake freezes, it looks like a sapphire, hiking around the lake you can reach "Red Lake," only your and yak footprints in the snow (ticket + shuttle bus 190 RMB, half price in winter!) - Seda Buddhist Academy: The red buildings in the snow are even more stunning, climb the hill at 6 a.m. to see the sunlight gild the academy’s edges (remember to bring warm packs, -15°C can freeze you to tears) ⚠️ Notes: - Some roads are icy, self-driving must bring snow chains (rent for 50 RMB/day), or take a local chartered car (Chengdu to Seda round trip 800 RMB/car, fits 4 people) - Daocheng Yading closes after December, don’t go empty-handed! Choose Hailuogou or Bipenggou for more reliable trips~ 🚗 Transportation + accommodation cheat sheet - Major transport: Starting from Chengdu is easiest! Self-drive via "Ya-Ye Expressway" (fully paved, even beginners can drive); if tired, choose "chartered car" (4 people share, about 150 RMB per person per day) - Accommodation saving tips: - Peak season (July-August/October): stay in county towns (like Kangding, Litang), closer to scenic spots and 50% cheaper - Off-season: stay inside scenic areas (like Bipenggou Hotel), no need to buy tickets again the next day - Kid/elderly-friendly route: choose a 3-day tour of "Kangding + Hailuogou + Mugecuo," altitude below 3000 m, good road conditions, little hiking 💬 One last honest tip: The beauty of Western Sichuan depends half on the scenery and half on the weather! Check the "Western Sichuan weather forecast" 3 days before departure, avoid continuous rainy days (but sunny days after light rain often bring surprises)~ No matter which season you go, remember to leave an extra day for flexibility. If you encounter cloudy weather, waiting one day might reward you with a lifetime unforgettable golden sunlight on the mountains!

The natural barrier crossed by the Red Army offers boundless scenery: Danba, Dangling Snow Mountain. During the Long March, the Red Army crossed over 20 snow-capped mountains, each with an altitude of 3,000-4,000 meters. Among them, Dangling, with its main peak at 5,470 meters, stands as one of the highest and most challenging, marking a point of significant sacrifice for the Red Army. Dangling is situated approximately 60 km northwest of Danba County, in the southwest of Bian'er Township's Dangling Village. Serving as the boundary between Danba and Daofu counties, it is revered as a sacred mountain by locals, with the saying, "Climbing Dangling Mountain is like entering the gates of hell." In February 1936, when the Fourth Red Army crossed the snow-capped mountains, it was the coldest time on the Tibetan Plateau, with temperatures often plummeting to -30 to -40 degrees Celsius. The extreme cold presented immense difficulties and resulted in heavy casualties for the Red Army soldiers, who mostly hailed from the south and lacked adequate cold-weather gear. The story of the "last party dues" unfolded here: The body of a Red Army soldier was discovered in the snow of Dangling, his arm raised high. His comrades pried open his clenched fist to find a party membership card and a silver dollar. The card read: "Liu Zhihai, official member of the Communist Party of China, joined in March 1933." Qujiaojiao is located on the road from Danba County to Daofu County via Dangling. By the roadside stands a group of sculptures depicting the Red Army's Long March—"Qujiaojiao • Long March Road." On February 28, 1936, Liu Bocheng and Li Xiannian led the advance troops of the Fourth Red Army's 30th Army across the Dangling Snow Mountain, advancing along routes like Qujiaojiao and entering Daofu. Subsequently, Zhu De, Xu Xiangqian, and others led the remaining troops across Dangling, establishing a Red regime in Daofu. Today, Dangling has become a hiking paradise, renowned for its stunning scenery, especially in autumn when it transforms into a fairytale world. Winter offers a prime opportunity to admire the snow-capped mountains and glaciers. However, winter journeys are more arduous, requiring full gear and demanding significant physical endurance as you navigate the snowy terrain. Imagine the hardships faced by the Red Army, traversing the towering snow-capped mountains in thin clothing, with limited supplies, and carrying numerous wounded—their struggles are truly unimaginable.
