So beautiful! A trip to Jinkouhe (The Mysterious Grand Canyon) is a must

Attraction Introduction: A perfect fusion of nature and history Jinkou Grand Canyon, with a total length of about 26 kilometers, has its narrowest point at just over 20 meters. The cliffs on both sides are steep and towering, with the river rushing below, creating a majestic atmosphere. The main attractions include: • Iron Chain Bridge: Spanning above the canyon, walking on it with the surging river beneath your feet and the sheer cliffs on both sides is thrilling and exciting. • White Bear Gully: Known for its secluded and beautiful scenery, with babbling streams and a forest of strange rocks, it is an excellent place for hiking and adventure. • Dawa Mountain: Resembling a table-shaped giant solitary mountain, climbing to the top offers a panoramic view of the canyon and distant snow-capped mountains, a sight too beautiful for words. Itinerary: Two days and one night, immersive experience Day 1: • Morning: Depart from Leshan City and drive for about 2 hours to reach Jinkou Grand Canyon, enjoying the pastoral scenery along the way. • Noon: Taste the local specialty lunch in a small town near the entrance of the canyon, such as Leshan Qiaojiao Beef and Tofu Pudding. • Afternoon: Hike through White Bear Gully, explore the deep valley, and experience the natural wonders. • Evening: Return to the accommodation, enjoy a quiet mountain night, and taste the mountain delicacies. Day 2: • Morning: Get up early to climb Dawa Mountain, watch the sunrise, and feel the first rays of sunlight on the magnificent scenery of the canyon. • Morning to Afternoon: Challenge the Iron Chain Bridge, experience the thrill of an accelerated heartbeat, then continue to explore deeper along the canyon trail, looking for more hidden beauty. • Afternoon: Leave the canyon in good time, and on the way back, you can visit the Leshan Giant Buddha, completing a trip that perfectly combines nature with culture. Gourmet Strategy: Taste the authentic Sichuan flavor • Leshan Qiaojiao Beef: With a savory soup and tender meat, it is a representative delicacy of the Leshan area and not to be missed. • Tofu Rice: Simple yet delicious, the light tofu with spicy dipping sauce is an excellent choice for relieving fatigue and hunger. Transportation Strategy: Convenient access to the secret realm • Self-driving: Self-driving is the most convenient way, starting from Leshan city center, take the S306 provincial road directly to Jinkouhe District, and then follow the signs to the Grand Canyon. • Public Transportation: If self-driving is not an option, you can take a bus from Leshan City to Jinkouhe District, and then rent a car or charter a car locally to enter the canyon.

National Geographic didn't lie to me! It turns out that the scenes from fairy tales do exist in reality~

Rated by National Geographic as one of the 'Top Ten Most Beautiful Canyons in China' The canyon is flanked by towering peaks and perilous rocks It turns out that the scenes from fairy tales can actually be found in reality The awe is simply indescribable here ——Travel Tips—— 📍Location: Navigate to Jinkouhe Grand Canyon in Leshan 🚘Transportation: It is recommended that tourists from Chengdu drive themselves or take a bus from the North Bus Station 🅿️Parking: There are No.1 and No.2 parking lots at the entrance, no admission fee 🎡Tourist Route: Chengdu→Jinkouhe Grand Canyon→Gulu Village→Leshan→Return trip 🎑Tourist Attractions 1️⃣Jinkouhe Grand Canyon Here, on both sides are steep cliffs, in the middle is a clear river and a winding water highway🛣️, which makes people marvel at the natural wonders. The traffic flows through the canyon, integrated with the sheer cliffs and deep valleys, known as the 'Geological Scripture and Secluded Valley of the Ages' 2️⃣Tongxin Bridge You can navigate directly to Tongxin Bridge, stay here for a moment, stand on the bridge and have a 360-degree overlook of the entire canyon spectacle, as if you are in a fantasy fairy tale scene, which is very shocking 3️⃣Gulu Village The famous 'One Line Sky' is also here, and there is a mysterious ✅ancient village built on the cliff, known as 'the village on the cliff' This place was once isolated from the world, with travel relying solely on a nearly vertical Roman road. After the relentless efforts of the villagers, this 'Cloud Road' was carved out of the cliff. Some parts of the road go through narrow cave tunnels where you have to bend over to move forward. As you seek the path upwards, stepping on the cliff edge with boulders overhead is quite thrilling The cost here is not high, making it very suitable for bringing children on weekends to experience history, get close to nature, and appreciate the wonders of nature's craftsmanship. If you haven't been there yet, you must go and experience this natural and human-made wonder!❗️

Sichuan Leshan||Jinkouhe Grand Canyon

||Jinkouhe Grand Canyon. Jinkouhe Grand Canyon Self-driving Guide|Good place to go on weekends Jinkouhe Grand Canyon presents a self-driving tour guide for your reference. 1⃣Transportation🚗: 1. There is currently no dedicated bus station or high-speed rail station here. 2. Because the attractions are relatively scattered, generally speaking, they are all on one road, the best way is to self-drive. 3. Depart from Chengdu, within 3 hours. 4. Depart from Leshan, about 1.5 hours. 5. Jinkouhe Grand Canyon does not charge admission, parking is 10 yuan. 2⃣Preparation: 1. There are few places to eat in the Grand Canyon scenic area, just some small stalls and shops, if you are not used to it, you can bring your own food and water. 2. It's very sunny on sunny summer days, bring sunscreen and hats. 3. Many places require hiking, prepare sports shoes. 3⃣Attractions: 1. The area inside the canyon is limited, the parking lot is not large, so it's best not to go on holidays, traffic jams, no place to park. 2. The attractions start from Figure 1, which is the first check-in place. You can also take a boat here, 80 yuan per person for a boat ride. 3. Enter the canyon, you can see the Dadu River inside the canyon along the road. You can enjoy the scenery while driving. This is also the beginning of the water road. 4⃣Water Road Shooting Position‼️: 1. Apart from aerial photography, a beautiful place to shoot the water road is the section starting from Baoshui Creek No.2 Bridge in Figure 4, walk back about 50 meters, all the way is beautiful. 2. The second point is to shoot on the bridge, this is the best position. 5⃣White Bear Gully⏳: 1. White Bear Gully is a wild grand canyon, pure natural scenery, not artificially built, so there is no parking lot, all parked on the open ground. 2. Some friends may be attracted by the videos on the Internet, you can see the big waterfall, but as you can see in Figure 5.6, there is none, so the waterfall is by chance. 6⃣Ancient Road Village: 1. Ancient Road Village needs to climb the mountain, it takes at least 3 hours to climb from the foot of the mountain to the village, because the mountain road of Ancient Road Village was originally a horse road, not a mountain climbing step, so it's quite tiring, we didn't climb up. 2. As the name suggests, Ancient Road Village was chiseled bit by bit by people in the mountains in the past, and then the materials were transported up the mountain by horses. You can rest in the caves in Figure 9.10. Important Tips: 1. Many friends are very disappointed after coming to Jinkouhe Grand Canyon, because the river water is yellow. So everyone must check the river water situation before departure. The Dadu River is not always green. 2. Be sure to pay attention to safety when parking on the side of the road to take pictures. The road is very narrow and there are often trucks passing by. Don't park on the side of the road at will, take pictures in the middle of the road.
