Western Sichuan Winter Wonderland: Tread on Ice in Search of Dreams, Five Great Blue Ice Lakes Await Your Discovery

💙🌨 Western Sichuan Secret Realm: Explore the Five Stunning Blue Ice Lakes 🚗✨ 🎉 This winter, I embarked on a marvelous journey to find the blue ice lakes, with the destination being the Ganzi loop in Western Sichuan! No need to travel far to Tibet or Xinjiang, the ice lakes here are just as breathtakingly beautiful, each with its own unique charm, and they are easily accessible by car! 🚗🌨️ 💎 Batang Sister Lakes: Located between Litang and Batang, these ice lakes are like two dazzling sapphires set amongst the snow-capped mountains. The ice surface, covered with cracks, is like a masterpiece of nature, leaving one in awe. Drive along National Highway 318, and the lake view is right by the road, park your car and you can enjoy this stunning scenery. 📸 💎 Yulong La Tso (New Road Lake): Surrounded by snow mountains, Yulong La Tso is known as the 'Western Celestial Pond' on the Northern Sichuan-Tibet line. The lake water exhibits a unique green color, and the ice surface also carries a hint of green. Although it's not pure blue ice, the scenery here is definitely worth a visit. The scenic area is currently under construction, and there is an entrance fee, but believe me, you will find it more than worth it. 🏞️ 💎 Ga'er Temple Mountain Tso Na Lake: Near Ga'er Temple Mountain, this blue ice lake is like a gem nestled among the mountains. Standing by the lake, one can gaze at the Gongga Mountains and feel the grandeur of nature. Although the location is a bit remote, a four-wheel drive off-road vehicle can easily reach it, and the tranquility and beauty here are definitely worth exploring. 🚘 💎 Blacksmith Mountain Blue Ice Lake: This is a serendipitous surprise! Below the Blacksmith Mountain pass, this blue ice lake lies quietly by the road. Although it's a bit difficult to walk to the lake, the stunning view from above is enough to mesmerize you. Navigate to the village below, then head towards the direction of Genie Holy Mountain, and you will find this secret realm. 📍 💎 Siding Tso: Next to Kangding Airport, Siding Tso is an excellent spot to view the Gongga Mountains. Although the ice surface is more white, on a clear day, it still reveals a faint blue color. With just a 10 yuan cleaning fee, you can enjoy this beautiful lake. 🌤️ 🚩 Itinerary Recommendation: Day 1: Depart from Chengdu - Batang Sister Lakes - Yulong La Tso Day 2: Yulong La Tso - Ga'er Temple Mountain Tso Na Lake - Blacksmith Mountain Blue Ice Lake Day 3: Blacksmith Mountain - Siding Tso - Kangding/Chengdu 💡 Tips: Be careful not to slip when stepping on the ice, it is recommended to wear ice grips so you can walk on it as if on flat ground. Due to the high altitude in Western Sichuan, please keep warm and protect yourself from the sun. Respect nature, protect the environment, and do not litter. 🌟 Let's embark on this wonderful journey to find the blue ice lakes together this winter! 🌨️🚗💙

Gol Temple Mountain, at an altitude of 4412, has already adapted to the plateau. Before running on the plateau, there is no problem. Don't learn me. I just want to try my own feelings about high altitude. The first warm sun, I saw my heart, I think this day is another good day. Come on, go ahead, Daocheng, Aden. If there is an afterlife, be a tree, stand for eternity, no sad posture. Half of it is in the dust, half in the air, half in the shade, half in the sun. Come on, those who are ideal for hard work, don't say easy to give up, the road is your choice, don't leave yourself behind! Scissor bends the mountain, the name is "Jamanaza", meaning the sheep's mountain pass, which means the mountain road cut out like scissors. (4600 meters above sea level) the first side of Sichuan and Tibet, 30 yuan a bowl, beef meat, lean meat, noodles 8 bowls do not enter Tibet. Haha. It is very hard to be determined here. Some people often say that travel is to spend money to buy crimes, but I am willing to suffer such crimes. [Travel Tips]: There are quite a few local Tibetans here who sell butter tea, barley wine, yogurt, and better not to talk to them. Or buy, so as not to provoke things.
