🚩Sisters planning to go soon, make sure to save this!🉑 Ready to go 📍Jiuzhaigou "After visiting Jiuzhaigou, no other water will impress you." This magical and beautiful paradise💒 is hidden in the towering mountains⛰ of the northwestern Sichuan plateau. The mountains and waters blend seamlessly, naturally formed. 📍Daocheng "There is a place called Daocheng, and I want to go there with my most beloved person💗! To see the blue sky🖼, the white snow-capped mountains🏔, and the golden grasslands🏕." 📍Siguniang Mountain Four snow-capped mountains🏔, a road leading to the snow mountains🛣, white towers🎈, and meadows🌳. There are no bad photos📷 here! 📍Yuzixi The romance of the world is nothing compared to Yuzixi💗. This is the most classic and popular🔥 viewing spot for Gongga Snow Mountain in western Sichuan! The golden mountain at sunset🌄 is incredibly beautiful. 📍Seda Seda is a famous Buddhist place, with 🔴red monk houses that are spectacular and unique. It is known as the "Red Buddhist Kingdom." 📍Bipenggou In Bipenggou, you can see ice waterfalls🏔, snow-capped mountains🗻, forests🌲 up close, and enjoy various snow activities. 📍Dawa Gengza Dawa Gengza means "beautiful sacred mountain"🏔 in Jiarong Tibetan. It is a 360° viewing platform🌌 with diverse and beautiful scenery. 📍Dagu Glacier Dagu Glacier is the world's lowest altitude, largest area, and youngest glacier🗻, and it is also the closest glacier to the city🏠. 📍Moshi Park Moshi Park is called the "China Geological Bermuda" by experts and scholars. Walking in the park feels like strolling on an "alien planet"🌏. ✅Tips for Traveling in Western Sichuan: 🔹Be sure to bring warm clothes or a windbreaker. The plateau is really different from the plains! The temperature difference between day and night is large, and it gets colder at higher altitudes and at night. You can buy a shawl at the scenic spot, which looks good in photos and keeps you warm. 🔹Prepare for sun protection, bring sunscreen, a hat, and sunglasses. Don't be fooled by the seemingly mild sun; the ultraviolet rays are very strong on the plateau, and it's super easy to get tanned! The sunlight there is quite glaring. 🔹Bring moisturizing skincare products, face masks, and lip balm. The plateau climate is quite dry, and if you don't hydrate your face enough, it will hurt from being too dry, and makeup will cake!

🎈The original picture of Mount Siguniang is straight out, and the aftereffects brought by Western Sichuan are even more intense than a heartbreak! Here comes the summary of my strategy for spending 1700+ on a customized small group tour⛰ If someone hasn't been to Mount Siguniang in the summer, I would really cry to death😭😭 It's really so beautiful that it hits right in the feels without any need for filters! Snow mountains, lakes, grasslands, yaks, log cabins, the beauty here is completely natural and doesn't need any excessive embellishment, 📷a casual snap is just like a blockbuster movie🤩🤩 🔸【Mount Siguniang】 It is divided into three scenic areas: Shuangqiao Valley, Changping Valley, and Haizi Valley. I highly recommend choosing Shuangqiao Valley, where you can enjoy the fun of hiking and also take a tour by car, which is not tiring at all! Shuangqiao Valley is the most developed valley in Mount Siguniang, with a scenic area tour bus that runs through the entire valley. The scenery in the valley is like a huge bonsai, with forests, snow mountains, streams, lakes, and meadows perfectly integrated, and many places will make you feel as if you are in Switzerland. ‼️If you can only choose one place to go in Western Sichuan, take a look at the Western Sichuan small loop, which really meets all travel needs. Spend three days visiting the essence spots like Fish West, Mugecuo, Zheduo Mountain, Moxi Park, Mount Siguniang Shuangqiao Valley, Tagong Grassland, etc.‼️ ❗️❗️【Itinerary】 🍋Day1: Chengdu - Mao's Nose Ridge - Mount Siguniang Shuangqiao Valley - Danba 🍋Day2: Danba - Yala Snow Mountain Viewing Platform - Huiyuan Temple - Moxi Park - Tagong Grassland - Fish West - Xinduqiao 🍋Day3: Xinduqiao - Zheduo Mountain - Mugecuo - Chengdu 📌【Travel Guide】 Recommended travel dates: July every summer. Exact location: Mount Siguniang Town, Xiaojin County, Aba Tibetan and Qiang Autonomous Prefecture, Sichuan Province. Business hours: 7:30-15:30 (No entry into the park after 15:30). Tickets: Ticket plus park sightseeing car 150 yuan/person. ✅【Preparations Before Departure】 1. Altitude sickness: I am the kind of person who easily gets altitude sickness, but going to Shuangqiao Valley is no problem. If you are worried, you can prepare some glucose, and if you feel hypoxic after entering the mountain, you can buy an oxygen can, which is available at almost every station for self-service sale. 2. Transportation: For friends who drive by themselves, if you are not often on this route, it is not recommended to drive by yourself. The roads in Western Sichuan are treacherous, especially during the rainy season, so be more cautious as the routes are complex and dangerous. 3. Accommodation: Accommodation is generally chosen in Rilong Town (Mount Siguniang Town), and there are homestays available for accommodation in Shuangqiao Valley, suitable for in-depth travel. 4. Weather: You can check the weather in Xiaojin County before departure, which is generally accurate. Even if it's cloudy on the road, it might be a different scene once you cross the mountain. When the sun comes out, it's really hot, so just wear some easy-to-take-off jackets.

1. Go ice skating on various lakes, such as the wild horse sea of Zhe Duo Mountain, the Sting Lake of Kangding Airport, the Lake of Black Stone City, the seven mountains and seven lakes of Tagong Grassland, it's really great! 2. If you want to see the golden sunshine on the snow-capped mountains, many places have been closed due to the snow. There are actually several peaks around Xindu Bridge that you can go to, such as Yuzi West, Gedilam, Mannuka, and the newly built Ze Ren Beng Zeng. It's only about an hour's drive from Xindu Bridge, and cars can reach directly. For those who want to go, it hasn't started snowing there yet, set off quickly~ Xindu Bridge

Western Sichuan is still barren in March and April. Due to the high altitude, the grasslands green up late, so there is no lush greenery. However, you can go to Jinchuan to see pear blossoms, or Yuzixi and Gunong Village to see the sunset over the snowy mountains. 😘Here are some tips for traveling in Western Sichuan. I hope they can help you~ Tip 1: Don't be lazy! Moisturize! It's very dry here! The wind in Western Sichuan can dry you out. It can even temporarily cure the rheumatism of people from Guangdong! Tip 2: Don't exercise for a month before you go. Don't exercise at all⚠. Take Rhodiola a few days in advance, and bring motion sickness medicine and patches. Take them as soon as you get in the car. Tip 3: Some places may not have a signal, so keep some cash on you for using the toilet. Many toilets in Western Sichuan are in poor condition, so be prepared. Tip 4: Bring a bottle of cola to Western Sichuan, and drink it a little at a time. It's very effective in relieving altitude sickness! Tip 5: When you're on the plateau, don't push yourself. Don't exercise vigorously, don't get too excited, and don't move suddenly. Slow down your movements. Not having altitude sickness at first doesn't mean you'll never get it. Tip 6: Don't bring squeezable tube toiletries. The low air pressure at high altitudes will cause them to swell. The moment you open the cap is the moment they'll explode!! If you bring them, turn the tubes upside down, shake them hard, gently squeeze out the air inside, and then tighten the cap. That should do the trick. Tip 7: Liquid eyeliner and eyebrow pens are not recommended. They explode easily. Choose eyeliner pencils, eyebrow pencils, or black eyeshadow palettes. If you must bring them, be sure to open them slowly! Tip 8: Bring your own bottled water to Western Sichuan, and never drink raw water from the wild. As they say, illness enters by the mouth! Tip 9: Be sure to check the air-dried yak jerky sold near the scenic spots in Western Sichuan carefully! Yak meat is dark brown when it's cooked! Tip 10: Conditions in Tibetan areas are limited, so be prepared. Accommodation cannot be compared to that in cities. It's best to bring pajamas and some toiletries. ⏰Duration: 3 days and 2 nights 🌸Cost: (before April 28) CNY 598 per person 🚙Transportation: Small group of 2–8 people 💯Must-see attractions: Yuzixi, Xinduqiao, Tagong Grassland, Mosek Park, Siguniang Mountain, etc. ✅Classic 3-day tour route in Western Sichuan DAY 1: Chengdu - Siguniang Mountain - Rilong/Danba/Bamei DAY 2: Accommodation - Yala Snow Mountain Viewing Platform - Moxi - Tagong - Gedilamu - Yuzixi - Xinduqiao DAY 3: Xinduqiao - Zheqin Monastery Viewing Platform - Airport Road 434 - Mugecuo - Kangding - Chengdu 🔥🔥Contact me📩 for more routes and ways to explore Western Sichuan. 🉑Team up/charter a car/join a group.

Save this post and unlock the stunning scenery of Daocheng Yading with me!✨ ---✅Scenic Spot Details Tickets: 120 Sightseeing Bus: 120 Electric Shuttle Bus: 50 one way, 80 round trip Opening Hours: 6:30-19:00 (last entry at 14:00) 🏨Accommodation Recommendations Stay in Shangri-La Town at an altitude of around 2700 meters. There are many hotels in town, and you can book rooms with oxygen concentrators. There are also plenty of dining options in town, including Chabaidao and many others. 🚘Transportation Guide ✈: For those coming from afar, flying is the most convenient option. For surrounding areas, you can choose to take the high-speed rail. If you can land at Shuangliu Airport, that's great👋. Avoid landing at Tianfu Airport, as it's 100 km from the city center. 🚇: From Tianfu Airport, walk 5 minutes to Terminals 1-2, take Subway Line 18, get off at South Railway Station↪, transfer to Line 1 to Chunxi Road. 🚙: Depart directly from Chengdu the next day, pass Xinjin Service Area, check in at Tianquan, and by ⌚12:00, arrive at Kangding to start your Western Sichuan journey. ⚠️: Daocheng Yading is not suitable for a one-day trip. The 15-18 hour drive is unbearable. Join a guided tour instead of driving yourself for a relaxed and hassle-free experience. 🎒Travel Preparations 🆔Documents: If you are a student or senior, bring your ID card, student ID, or senior citizen certificate for half-price tickets. 👗Clothing: If you're joining a small group tour, one suitcase is recommended. Pack 1 light cotton-padded jacket, 2-3 coats, 2 sets of skirts/pants, and 2-3 pairs of shoes. 📸Photography: The scenery in Western Sichuan mostly consists of snowy mountains🏔 and grasslands. If you have a camera, bring a 70-200mm or longer lens. 🧩Travel Comfort: You'll spend a lot of time in the car, so bring a neck pillow for added comfort. Travel Tips 1️⃣It is recommended to enter the park between 7:00-8:00 for more time to explore. 2️⃣The scenic bus🛺️ ride takes 50 minutes. Take motion sickness medicine beforehand, as the winding mountain roads can easily cause nausea. Eat a light breakfast. 3️⃣If you choose the longer route at Chonggu Temple, buy a round-trip electric shuttle bus ticket🛵. Hiking round trip takes 3-4 hours, which is unnecessary, and the mountain is cold!! You can rent a jacket here if needed. 4️⃣Get off the shuttle bus at the Shengshui Gate and walk to Luorong Cattle Farm. You'll see the most beautiful mountain road🛤 and the Luorong Cattle Farm viewing platform. Then, take a leisurely walk along the boardwalk, which is mostly flat. Have lunch at Luorong Cattle Farm. 5️⃣In the afternoon, explore the shorter route. If you're still in the scenic area at 17:00, you might see the sunset illuminating the golden mountain⛰️. 6️⃣With Milk Lake and Five-Color Lake closed, one day is enough for sightseeing. If you feel disappointed, you can fly a drone🛩 along the longer route to see the two lakes. 🚗Five-Day Western Sichuan Tour Itinerary: D1 Chengdu - Muya - Yuzixi - Xinduqiao D2 Xinduqiao - Litang - Daocheng D3 Daocheng Yading Day Trip D4 Riwa - Second Trip to Yading - Litang - Xinduqiao D5 Xinduqiao - Mosek Park - Chengdu

Get there 2 hours early to secure a spot, bring a tripod + thick down jacket (the wind is crazy!) 📸Tips: Take creative "snow mountain coffee cup" photos (props: thermos + red scarf) Daocheng Yading Long Trek ⚠️Avoid: Don't wear jeans! Hire horses (300 yuan to Station 3), then hike the remaining 2km (use oxygen beforehand!) 📸Tips: Capture "lonely silhouettes" at Milk Sea, use a wide-angle lens to compress the space Seda Night View ⚠️Avoid: Don't stay at the Buddhist Academy! Stay in the county town (20-minute drive). The night view platform is "on the hillside opposite the Mandala." 📸Tips: Use a drone to capture the "red sea + Milky Way" (no drones after 8pm, but you can try🤫) Moishi Park ⚠️Avoid: Don't pay for a guide! Rent Tibetan clothing (30 yuan/hour) and take "exotic princess" photos. 📸Tips: Cloudy days are better! Use a dark background to highlight the starkness of the stone forest. 💡【Altitude Sickness Survival Guide】 ✅Prevention: Take Rhodiola 15 days in advance (20 yuan/box at Chengdu pharmacies) ✅Emergency: Glucose oral solution + Ibuprofen + Oxygen (80 yuan/bottle at scenic spots, 30 yuan in town) ✅Taboos: Don't wash your hair for the first 3 days!

Walk as slow as a turtle! ✅Mysticism: Hang prayer flags at Hanpo Pass (it worked for me!) 🎒【Lifesaving Gear List】 ✔️Physical Hacks: Sunglasses (snow blindness) + Thermos (hot water) + U-shaped pillow (essential for 10-hour drives) ✔️Outfit Essentials: Fleece-lined leggings + Hiking boots (anti-slip) + Trapper hat (warmth and survival) ✔️Electronic Lifelines: Power banks ×3 (batteries drain fast in cold weather) + Spare batteries (for cameras) 🍜【Food Pitfalls】 ✅Must-try: Litang yogurt dumplings (5 yuan), Danba fragrant pork leg (80 yuan/500g) ❌Avoid: Scenic spot yak butter tea (fake!), "Yak hot pot" at Tibetan restaurants (might be beef) ✨【Local Insider Tips】 ▶️D3 Yading: Start the long trek at 6am! Beat the crowds + see the morning mist at Milk Sea ▶️D5 Seda: Capture "starry sky + red houses" at 5am, attend morning prayers at the Buddhist Academy (starts at 8am) ▶️D7 Shuangqiao Valley: Take the first sightseeing bus (8am) to enjoy the "reflection of Siguniang Mountain" all to yourself. ⚠️Ultimate Warning: Don't wear light-colored clothes! Horseback riding on the grasslands will get you manure stains, and Moishi Park will get you covered in black dust. Learned that the hard way😭
