Compared to Yuzixi, I have a deeper love for the lesser-known and romantic Guniang Village
Let the spring and summer of Western Sichuan come quickly~ I can't wait to go camping already‼️ At Tagong Grassland, last year we found a treasure camping spot that is perfect for taking photos📷, enjoying the snow-capped mountains🏔️ with family, rolling on the grass, and setting up a BBQ grill🍢. This place is Guniang Village.
This beautiful, off-the-beaten-path location has scenery that can heal you more than many Swiss landscapes.
You can drive there directly by car, just navigate to Guniang Village in Tagong Town.
You can find an excellent spot for camping anywhere here, and it's free!
You can take in the whole view of the snow mountains, streams, forests🌲, and meadows.
The key is that if you want to see the golden glow of the sunset on the mountains🌄, it's only a 10min drive to Balang Mountain from here, and it's absolutely amazing😭!!!
Of course, such a great place shouldn't be enjoyed alone.
I'm sharing this place with everyone, but remember one thing:
Although the scenery of Western Sichuan is beautiful, we must protect the environment.
Consciously take your trash with you, and let's protect this pure land together.
📍Coordinates: Ganzi Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture, Tagong Town, Road 215 towards Balang Mountain
🚘Road conditions: Full expressway + asphalt road, accessible by sedan
🎫Ticket: Free
⏰Opening hours: All day
🏕Tips for playing, taking photos/camping:
1. There are lawns everywhere near Guniang Village, just find a spot with a stream🌊 to set up camp.
2. If you're driving, for convenience, you don't need to bring a tent, as there are rentals available locally, with tents💰100 per tent, canopies 50 per tent, very convenient.
3. There's a super good spot for photography📷, keep driving along the small road, and you'll find a parking lot. From here, you can face Yala Snow Mountain, and there are streams, cattle, and sheep, with parking fee🅿️25.
4. The altitude of Guniang Village is about 🏔️3500m, and most people won't suffer from altitude sickness, but it's still recommended to bring oxygen bottles and glucose.
5. There are two guesthouses inside, one is run by an American, and the other is just opposite, run by his nephew, both styles are very atmospheric, facing Yala.
6. There's a small wooden bridge near his house, great for taking photos, and you can also get a frontal shot of Yala Snow Mountain👀.
7. When visiting in summer, you can dress more coolly, in darker colors, like👗 red/green/blue, etc.
🌄Want to go to Balang Mountain to watch the sunset~
If you camp near the parking lot or guesthouse, you can just drive along the road for 10 minutes to reach the viewing platform, then walk up to a higher place. The location here is excellent, with an unbeatable view, but the wind is quite strong~ It's an ideal place to shoot the golden glow of the sunset on the mountains, and recently many tent-type guesthouses have been built here, very romantic❤️.
🚗【4 Days and 3 Nights Travel Itinerary in Western Sichuan】
D1: Chengdu - Kangding - Airport Road - Guniang Village - Balang Mountain

D3: Xinduqiao - Jiagenba - Moon Lake - Xinduqiao
D4: Xinduqiao - Zheduo Mountain - Kangding - Chengdu
"Gulong Village" is a small village hidden under the snowy mountains. The reason for the initial fire is that there are grass, streams, flocks of cattle and horses here. Of course, the most important thing is to see the "Yala Snow Mountain". If you have time, you can set a sky curtain here. A little bit of food is to enjoy the time here.
Departing in West Sichuan again in August, this time we took a small ring line: Chengdu departure - Siguniang Mountain - Xiaojin - Gunong Village - Balang Shengdu - Xindu Bridge - take 434 back to Kangding - Chengdu Day1⃣️: Chengdu departs at 9 am on Friday, and it takes nearly 2 pm to Siguniang Mountain. Time is relatively fast. (I think it is better to go to Siguniang Mountain one night in advance and play directly the next day, otherwise it will be on the road all day and there is no much tour.) Because I arrived late and it rained for a while, I basically took a look at the flowers. The place that feels the most worth remembering is the rafting! ⚠️ Small Tips: Shuangqiaogou tickets 🎫 It is best to make an appointment online in advance. If you encounter a restricted purchase, go to the special application channel to provide a health code and itinerary card. 48 hours of nucleic acid will be fine, and it will be reviewed soon. 🏨 Accommodation: Xiaojin County, Liwan Hotel, the first night, it is simply five-star praise, the best hotel in the county, there is also a massage Ktv tea shop, the room is also very large, the sound insulation is not bad, the best night to sleep! Strong push 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 Day2⃣️: At 8 o'clock, drive directly to Gunong Village. The road will pass through Danba, Bamei, Moshi Park, etc. Considering the situation on the first day, we went directly to Gunong Village. It was almost 3 pm. It was only after 5 o'clock. We set off to Balangsheng to watch the sunset! Balangsheng is the sunset! The road conditions are also OK, the general car can also go up the mountain, and there is no traffic jam like the fish west. I hope that in the future, this line will not be like Yuzixi. There are many places that are building roads recently, so the driving is relatively slow, and the traffic flow in the peak summer is too large recently. It is almost to Gulong Village and the traffic jam is again. We passed through a small road and we could go directly to the fork of the small road entering Gunong Village. Fortunately, there was no blocking and we took thicker clothes. It was really cold at night and the wind was very strong. Accommodation: I think the best way to unlock this place is to camp 🏕️ bring a tent. Sky curtain, oven, projection... With the snow mountain as the background, the stars are accompanied by the stars, this is a joy from the mountains! Day3⃣️: From Xindu Bridge back to Chengdu, the route is Provincial Highway 434. The scenery on the road is much better than the route of Zhedu Mountain. There are many places to stay! And we also found a small road this time, next time we are going to camp 🏕️ places to stay: Stingcuo, Jiamenla (Red Sea Zi), Yala Pass, it seems that there is a stream in the place that is about to reach Zhonggu Village...⚠️ 434 This road is also on fire, So if you are traveling in summer vacation, pay attention to the road conditions. When we go back, the car up the mountain may be blocked at least 20 kilometers to the bottom of the mountain. Don't be too exaggerated! If you go to West Sichuan, you must recommend a place, it must be Xindu Bridge_Gulong Village_Balang Shengdu! I hope everyone can keep loving and rushing to the mountains and seas ⛰️ #Summer you will play most
Summer is here, it is time to come to the west of Sichuan to see the snowy mountains! I am running for freedom, the romance under the snowy mountains. West Sichuan is really the most comfortable trip I feel because I have been to too many times. I have been very, very familiar with many places. I have been to Western Sichuan many times a year. But I want to say that the grass in Western Sichuan is green now. I feel that the whole world is full of vitality. River, grass, Niuyang, Snow Mountain.........Super beautiful ✨ In fact, I especially want to tell you that this place is the name of the place I like very much: Gunong Village, Halangsheng are sunset viewing platforms. Everyone must go to see it. There are really too many surprises. I feel a lot of surprises every time I come. Every time I come. There is a beautiful 💕 [Gu Nong Village photo accommodation campground choice] Accommodation: Gu Nong Village has a homestay, which is opened by an American. The location and style are very good. You can find the campground on the Internet: the whole Gu Nong Village has a river and you can see the Yala Snow Mountain. Everyone drives along the small river, just find a flat place, 50 tents look like taking pictures: 1. When you go to Gunong Village, you will see a lot of lawns by the river. Just go directly to take pictures. 2. There is a small wooden bridge next to the homestay. Taking pictures here should be the most beautiful I think. The view of the snow mountain is also the best [Balangsheng watches the sunset viewing platform] Walk along Gunong Village for half an hour to the Balangshengdu viewing platform. This should be the best viewing platform for Yala Snow Mountain. The view is invincible, and there are prop cars and swings for taking pictures. Very suitable for taking pictures 💕 [Western Sichuan travel sunscreen is invincible] It is really too sun-proof in Western Sichuan. Everyone must do a good job of sun protection. It is too important to wear a skill outdoor photo, and sun-proof clothes. ✨ [Western Sichuan Travel 4 Days 3 Nights Itinerary] day1: Chengdu-Kangding-Kangding Airport Road-Yuzi West-Xindu Bridge day2: Xindu Bridge-Heishi Park-Muya Dasi-Balangshengdu-Xindu Bridge day3 Xindu Bridge-Jiagenba-Moon Lake-Xindu Bridge day4 Xindu Bridge-Stingco-Red Sea Zi-Kangding-Chengdu 💕 If you have the opportunity to come to West Sichuan to see Yala Snow Mountain and Gongga Snow Mountain, I really like this beautiful West Sichuan.

The love of western Sichuan is really deep in the bones, especially the sunset of this snow mountain. Jinshan. At this moment, you will feel that you have the world. Since the mountains don't come to see me, I will go to see this Yala Snow Mountain by myself. My second favorite snow mountain is not asked why I am poisoned because Gongga Snow Mountain is really poisoned. Too deep but it doesn't affect my love of Yala Snow Mountain. I like to find a small river and wait for the sunset of Yala Snow Mountain. Jinshan eats a barbecue by the river and enjoys the snowy mountains. Do you think this is your favorite way to travel? Anyway, I fell in love with this trip and I can feel my romance and freedom in nature. This moment you will relax your whole nerves and enjoy the breath nature gives us.|Gulong Village There are many campsites along the river, but my favorite is this close The innermost place is not big. This lawn can probably set up two sky tents, but the view will make you feel that it is more wide and you can better see the Yala Snow Mountain and other sunsets. Jinshan will also be a better route | How to play in Western Sichuan in 3 days? West Sichuan is very big. If you only have three days, then I must give you a suggestion. How to play these three days is very important. day1: Chengdu-Kangding S434- Red Sea Zi-Stingcuo-Fish Zi Xigdiram-Xindu Bridge day2: Xindu Bridge-Tagong-Moshi Park-Gulong Village-Balang Shengdu-Tagong day3: Muya Temple - Yunshang Yala Observation Deck - Chengdu West Sichuan The beauty of you is worth coming more times, too many, too many, every time I go, I feel different, I really love West Sichuan! ! ! #West Sichuan Tourism #Chengdu Travel Guide #Fish West #Xindu Bridge #Travel
Facing the snow-capped niche campground ||| Western Sichuan is not to be missed all year round 🎈 Although I have been here many times, I have a new experience every time. //Gulong Village seems to be not too niche now, but compared to the Red Sea, there are many fewer people. It is now summer vacation. It is the peak season in Western Sichuan, so people are still More people deliberately avoided Zeduo Mountain and Kangding. I saw that many people were blocked here. We lived near Mugecuo. We went to Honghaizi early in the afternoon to Gunong Village. When we arrived, there were already many people on the riverside. The sky curtain and tent were set up because we brought several dogs. We drove a little farther and found a place where no one was. The river was very shallow. We went up the stream and carried our luggage to the other side. It was free and then we enjoyed a large grassland and small river. The dogs were happy and ran crazy.
