At the entrance, the village committee has built several huge parking lots, the parking fee is 10 yuan. The entire protected area is not large, it is the lowest intensity for outdoor hiking. The mountain is full of towering trees that are decades old, giving a bit of a primeval forest feel. The air is very good and super cool.

Zhongba Forest is located in Pengzhou City, just 1.5 hours from downtown Chengdu. Therefore, if you live in Chengdu, you can make a round trip within a day, and it is also very convenient to visit during the weekends. The trees here are lush and are artificially planted. Whether viewed from above or up close, the scenery is spectacular. Follow the main trail upwards, and you'll reach an excellent spot for aerial photography. If you want to take beautiful photos of the forest with light and shadow, you can choose to not follow the main trail and take a small path into the woods instead. The trail is not very long; if you walk fast, it takes only about ten minutes to complete, and the path is easy to walk, mainly because the small paths on the mountain are quite slippery. ▶ Chengdu -> Zhongba Conservation Station (1 hour 30 minutes) ▶ Zhongba Conservation Station, Pengzhou City ▶ Self-driving ▶ No admission fee, but parking at the trailhead costs 10 yuan/vehicle (poor signal on the mountain, it is recommended to bring change) ↓↓ 1. > Bring your own snacks and water (there are no shops inside); 2. > Be sure to prevent fires when visiting the forest.

🏨 Zhongba Protection Station ❤Recommended Reason: Zhongba Forest Park, which requires no admission fee, is really worth a visit for photography! This is my second time to Zhongba Forest Park. Last time, the heavy rain made the photos look so magical. This time, it was overcast with occasional sunshine, but I personally think that the rain and fog add more atmosphere! 🚉Transportation Strategy: Zhongba Protection Station in Pengzhou, 1.5 hours away from Chengdu. Now, all vehicles can no longer drive to the top and can only park in the parking lot below. Then you can choose to hike for about 30 minutes to the start of the wooden walkway. You can also choose to take a local's private car (10 yuan per person one way) to the wooden walkway. Personally, I think it's better to take a car up, as walking can be a bit specific. 📝Note tips: Clothing suggestions: Since the forest here is very dense and the light under the trees is not very sufficient, it is recommended to wear bright and colorful clothes to highlight the person. Also, the weather in the mountains is changeable, so it's best to prepare an umbrella or raincoat. Photography suggestions: Props are indispensable. I prepared a walking stick and a portable lamp in advance, so the photos won't be too monotonous and have more atmosphere. For lenses, I used 16-35mm and 28-200mm, and the camera is Sony a7r4. The wooden walkway for sightseeing is probably only one or two kilometers long, and it ends quickly if you walk. I think the most important thing here is still photography! In addition, there are local stalls selling snacks at both the parking lot below and the start of the wooden walkway on the mountain, so just travel light. Also, I hope everyone will take their trash with them when they leave to protect the environment. It's everyone's responsibility!
