[2025 Mabian Stay] Travel Guide for HITI ALRUO in Mabian Creek (Updated Apr)

The road from Mabian County to Xiaoguxi is in good condition. The road winds through the mountains, and you can feel the warmth and greenery of the mountains in the car, which is a great relaxation for people who are used to living in concrete houses. Mabian Aranya B&B makes the most of the natural scenery of the mountain village and frames it in the windows, which is the biggest surprise Xiaoguxi has brought me! The bedding is always well received, and the quiet mountain village makes it easy to get a good night's sleep. The next day, the clouds and mist surround the village, making it look like a fairyland. The barbecue at night and the wontons in the morning are delicious! The smiles of the children around the B&B are very pure, and a single candy can make them smile happily, which is probably what we could only see when we were kids. Although I only stayed here for one night, I felt the joy of "returning to nature after being in a cage for a long time." I like Aranya B&B, and I will continue to experience other Aranya stores one by one.

It's a great place to relax with friends. The facilities exceeded my expectations. The room was clean and well-equipped. The price was great value for money. The air was fresh and the surroundings were quiet. The host was very friendly and provided detailed information about the route, parking, and dining options. The service was excellent and comparable to a star-rated hotel. The journey was long, but the road was good. The highway goes all the way to Mabian County. The road up the mountain is a two-way asphalt road with many curves, so drive carefully at night. The homestay offers Yi ethnic clothing for guests to try on. The tea mountains and villages nearby are great for taking photos. The starry sky at night was beautiful. You can eat at the homestay or drive half an hour to the county. The homestay's prices were reasonable. We had a barbecue on the rooftop, which was delicious. The breakfast was Mabian-style wontons, which were better than regular wontons. There weren't any particularly stunning views, but the overall experience was relaxing and enjoyable. It's a great place to unwind.

The B&B is located in a Yi village in Xiaoxi Valley. It was renovated from a former primary school and was jointly built by OCT and Alanli. Away from the hustle and bustle, but also very quiet. The design style of Yuyan Hotel is simple and bright, recreating the beauty of a rural courtyard. The light and shadow are intertwined downstairs, and you can sleep quietly upstairs, not deliberately catering but never neglecting, just simple comfort and romance. Here, the whole person feels separated from the daily trivialities and awakens the pure nature in the heart. It is a place where you can dream. It is a rare pleasure to make a cup of Mabian green tea on the terrace of Chashan, put on Yi costumes and drink tea and chat with friends. 🧡

B&B: [Mabianxidi Alanruomeisu] Address: Group 3, Xiaoguxi Village, Minzhu Town, Mabian I spent 2 days in Chengdu and CityWalk was wet for two days🌧️. After driving for 4 and a half hours, we arrived at Mabian and continued to get wet ☔️. . Just changed the place to watch and listen to the rain. Hey😑…! . In the courtyard of the homestay, we ate hotpot, grilled our own barbecue, and stared blankly ♠️🎴♦️🃏. If it doesn't rain, there is a small trail next to the B&B where you can hike. The hiking route is relatively unpopular. You can stop and walk to experience the countryside and get close to nature🍃. . . After having Mabian wonton for breakfast, let’s return to Chengdu. . .

Driving along the winding mountain road, you will pass steep cliffs and dense forests. When you reach the top of the mountain, you will see a large alpine meadow. The surrounding mountains and forests make this grassland look very special. Herds of cattle and sheep graze freely, and the sea of ​​clouds in the distant mountains add a sense of mystery. ^I saw some people taking wedding photos and some camping and picnicking. It seems that there are not many tourists at the moment. Yangtianwo, Mabian Yi Autonomous County, Leshan City Self-driving from Chengdu 3.5h, Leshan 2h : Navigate to "Dazhubao Township". When you are almost there, turn right and take an uphill road. You can ask the local villagers, and they all know the entrance. It took about 50 minutes to drive on the mountain road. I drove slowly. The road in the front was narrow and it was difficult to pass other cars. The winding mountain road behind was well built, but some guardrails were still under construction. The road conditions were generally good and our sedan had no problems. :It's a great place to take photos, dress nicely! Because this is not a scenic spot, protecting the environment is everyone's responsibility, so please take your trash with you. Recommended niche routes around Chengdu: Day 3: Drive to Yangtianwo in Chengdu, enjoy the scenery, take photos, and stay at Alanruo B&B in Mabianxidi at night. The decoration style of the homestay is good, and the photos are also very good. For dinner, we grilled Yi-style barbecue on the rooftop terrace of the homestay, blowing the mountain
