Here are the answers to everything you want to know about going to Western Sichuan during the holidays

Litang

Litang is a city in the sky, a city run through by National Highway 318.

To the north of the national highway is a stretch of snow-capped mountains, and to the south is a stretch of grassy slopes. The blue sky that can be touched with one's hand, the clouds like cotton candy, the holy and majestic snow-capped mountains, the prayer flags moving in the wind, everything is fascinating~

Siguniang Mountain

If you feel that Xinjiang is too far away, then come to Siguniang Mountain~ The Siguniang Mountain Scenic Area is mainly divided into three ditches: Shuangqiao Valley, Changping Valley, and Haizigou. Each ditch is collected separately. If time is limited, I recommend going to Shuangqiao for shopping. This is the most abundant and comprehensive ditch among the three ditches

Daocheng Yading

I hope there is someone like you. Like the morning wind in the mountains, like the gentle light of Jiyu, from early morning to night, from the mountains to the study room, as long as it is you in the end~

It is said that if you don’t go to Daocheng, you will remain the same for the rest of your life. After Mei's eight lifetimes. If you love someone, you will take them there. If you hate them, you will take them to places. But if you don’t brag, you won’t be slanderous. If I were asked to choose only one place to go to Ganzi, I would choose Daocheng

Yala Snow Mountain

Tuila Snow Mountain (also translated as Yala Snow Mountain) means "Eastern Baihuangniu Mountain" in Tibetan. The main peak is 5820 meters above sea level. Although it is not worth mentioning in Western Sichuan where there are many mountains, no one has reached it yet. virgin peak.

Compared with other snow-capped mountains in western Sichuan, Yala Snow Mountain can be said to be an easy-to-photograph snow-capped mountain (you don’t have to enter the scenic spot, there are multiple viewing areas) and it has completely different looks from different angles.

Hailuogou

Before encountering conches, I had no idea that glaciers could be so beautiful. The Hailuogou Valley under the Gongti Mountain is incredibly beautiful all year round. It is surrounded by silver and is spectacular in front. It is one of the few low-purity, low-altitude glaciers discovered in the world, and is one of the most accessible to modern glaciers. .

Moshi Park

If you want to experience the scene of a foreign city planet, then you must experience Moshi Park once. The altitude here is 3,500 meters. Even in summer, it is very cool. The highest humidity in August is only about 22 degrees. It is definitely a good place to escape, but you must pay attention to plateau sun protection

Xinduqiao

p>

Xinduqiao is a fascinating "photography paradise". It is located at the south and north bifurcation of National Highway 318. It is a picturesque paradise. Magical light, boundless grasslands, luxurious streams, golden cypresses, rolling hills, scattered villages, and cattle and sheep grazing peacefully - the plain scenery of western Sichuan is beautifully maintained. This is Xinduqiao!

Tagong Grassland

The Tagong Grassland in June is already green, and the small wild flowers blooming randomly add vitality to the grassland. Compared with the rolling prairie of Hulunbuir, this place has an extra humanistic feel. Next to the grassland are Tagong Temple and Muya Golden Pagoda. The red and gold ethnic buildings are unique. When you climb up to the observation deck, you can not only see the county town and buildings at the bottom of the mountain, but if you are lucky, you can also see the Yala Snow Mountain in the distance, and there is still snow on the top of the mountain~

Tips/precautions for avoiding pits

< p>1. The main entrance of Moshi Park is on the top of the mountain. You can take a panoramic view by walking on the plank road for a few steps. It is not easy to get high when walking from high to low.

2. If the weather is bad in Tagong Grassland, it’s really hard to take photos and you have to rely on post-production, and you won’t be able to see the snow-capped mountains opposite.

3. The long route to Daocheng to Yading is at least 12 kilometers long. Many Tibetans will ask if they want to take a bag or carry it on the road, and there is a fee.

4. For UUs ??who are prone to motion sickness, don’t forget to bring motion sickness medicine when going to Bipenggou. There is a winding mountain road that takes one and a half hours.

5. Tibetan villages, tourist centers and other places in Jiuzhaigou sell jade, medicinal materials, etc. Be careful when buying or don’t buy souvenirs and go to regular large supermarkets.

6. If you want to save effort when visiting Songpinggou, it is best to take a sightseeing bus up the mountain and hike down the mountain: there is no food in the scenic area, so bring snacks with you.

7. Do not buy the so-called highly anti-drug oxygen-enriched water in Huanglong Scenic Area. It is basically useless. Just walk slowly.

8. If you only have one day to visit Siguniang Mountain, you can feast your eyes on Shuangqiaogou. The whole journey is open to traffic and it is very easy.

9. Do not feed wild monkeys in the Hailuogou Scenic Area, and do not carry plastic bags to avoid being surrounded by monkeys snatching food.
