Anzihe Nature Reserve, Chongzhou Anzihe

Anzi is located in Sichuan Province. The local environment belongs to the humid monsoon climate zone, so the local rainfall is quite abundant. There are many vegetation and wild animals, fresh air, mountain springs, and rolling hills. Quietly listening to the singing of birds and the fragrance of flowers in nature is also a different experience.

Where is the best place to enjoy the red leaves in Anzihe Nature Reserve in autumn? Among the places listed on Baidu, people know Guangwu Mountain, Xiling Snow Mountain, Bipenggou in Miyaluo, and Dagu Glacier. On weekends, the roads are jammed, and it’s even hard to get a ticket in Bipenggou. Don't think it's easy to buy tickets online, the lines at the online ticket booths are miles long.

In order to travel with the least money and get the best travel experience, we repeatedly searched for information on the Internet and finally selected this scenic spot with a short distance, few tourists and low fees - Anzi River in Chongzhou City nature reserve.

Anzihe Nature Reserve is located in Jiguanshan Township, Chongzhou City, Sichuan Province. It is the transition zone from the western part of the Chengdu Plain to the eastern edge of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau. It is a forest and wildlife nature reserve that mainly protects giant pandas and other rare wild animals and their habitats.

When I woke up in the morning, there were many clouds in the sky. It was very beautiful, but the camera could not record the beauty at that time.

In the past 80 kilometers, the second half of Chengdu was all winding rural roads, which usually took two and a half hours to reach.

After entering the rural road in Chongzhou, there are hanging rocks on the hillsides on both sides, which looks very dangerous. Fortunately, there are guardrails, but you have to pass through the dangerous area quickly.

I met several cycling teammates along the way. It seems that the news I read online said that many cyclists like to come here. It's true.

On the road, I also saw some families traveling, laying a tablecloth on the roadside green space and placing food brought from home. In a beautiful environment, they enjoy delicious food and nature at the same time, which is beautiful and friendly.

When approaching the Anzi River, next to a tunnel, there is an excellent place to view the beautiful scenery, which is next to a reservoir.

The closer you get to Anzi River, the bluer the sky and the fresher the air. I wish I could take a breath of fresh air and save it for later.

The part illuminated by the sun and the part blocked by the clouds form a boundary between yin and yang, a beautiful contrast.

There are also some dangerous places on the road, all traces of mudslides.

At a fork in the road, there is a cement road on one side, leading to the Jiguan Mountain Scenic Area, and a dirt road on the other side, which is marked as an undeveloped scenic area.

Walk along the dirt path for about five minutes. After winding paths, you finally arrive at Anzihe Nature Reserve.

Here, a family erected a wooden gate at the sign of Anzihe Nature Reserve. Pedestrians have to buy a car for 10 yuan to enter. I don’t know if it is used for parking, it seems a bit private.

(But the sky is high here and the emperor is far away, so no one cares. In the past, in the mountains of Qionglai, a parking fee of 10 yuan was also charged.)

This farmer decorated the house beautifully , the color is very beautiful against the surrounding red leaves.

There are really few people here, so we met a few people here and took photos.

The advantage of having fewer people is that you can take photos at any time.

Fortunately, the red leaves here are very beautiful, and it’s worth the ten yuan parking fee.

Although there are no red leaves, it is precisely because of these plants that they are so precious.

Put away Xishui Hejiabian BBQ

Go around the yard and walk to the back for about five minutes, passing an old bridge, which is a relatively large dam.

Coincidentally, I met a dozen people having a barbecue by the river here. Smelling the aroma, I really wanted to shamelessly eat with them.

After crossing another 200 meters of path, you will see Anzi River.

The drop is not big and the water flow is not fast. If it's summer, you can play in the water here.

A large rock divides the reservoir into a large lake and a small stream.

A small river blocked our way. Together we built stones and tried to cross the river.

Finally, I wet my shoes and crossed the river.

Any composition is beautiful against the backdrop of natural colors.

The turquoise water and white rapids can turn into a silky milky white under the lens.

Barbecue is very convenient here. Drink some water. This place is big and spacious.

Sit by the river and listen to the gurgling water, or sit there in a daze for an afternoon.

Hiking Jiguanshan Forest Park Jiguanshan and Anzi are on the same line, but Jiguanshan is slightly further away.

Jiguanshan Natural Park is located in the northwest corner of Chongzhou City, Sichuan Province, within the Anzihe Giant Panda Nature Reserve. It is the only giant panda nature reserve in Chengdu. The forest coverage rate reaches 95%, and it is famous for its unique natural beauty and human culture such as "peaks, forests, waterfalls, snow-capped mountains, hot springs, clouds, and giant pandas".

In Jiguanshan Forest Park, you can not only experience the spectacular red leaves, but also taste the various wild vegetables, rare fungi, and wild persimmons presented by the mountains in this intoxicating place with a lot of negative oxygen ions. Waiting for wild fruits.

And there are game stalls at the door and on the road, so we can observe the truth with our own critical eyes.

There were not many people when I went there, and occasionally I met people in twos and threes.

This wide mountain road looks more majestic, and it is even more spectacular with the trees on both sides.

There are many gravel roads along the road, the slope is not large, and it is not difficult to walk.

Of course, you can also see patches of green.

Here, you will see patches of trees with straight trunks, "strong, beautiful, strange and rare". Seeing these patches of trees, you will involuntarily think of the Populus euphratica in primary school textbooks. The tree also has a straight trunk, like a man standing upright.

It doesn’t look easy along the way. In fact, it still takes a lot of energy. After three hours, we finally reached the top, but the weather was bad and the mountain was filled with fog, making it difficult to see the beautiful scenery of "Siguniang Mountain" and the mountain below.

Although the ending is not as expected, the important thing is the beautiful scenery along the way.
