Chengdu! Chengdu! The cherry blossoms are in full bloom all over the mountains, absolutely beautiful

📍Jiulonggou, Chongzhou 🧭Navigation: Sanlang Cherry Valley 🚗Driving time: 1h from the West Gate, 1.5h from other places 🛞Road conditions: Cement road all the way, no worries for female drivers ⛰️Hiking kilometers: Dirt roads, cement roads, stone steps 📖Search two steps away: Cherry Valley 5KM loop, download the track in advance to avoid getting lost. Most people choose this route, but it's easy to make a wrong turn; we ended up walking 8KM, but the scenery was particularly nice. ✅Recommended activities: 1. For families with elderly and children who do not wish to hike, you can navigate directly to the destination, then drive up the mountain for a bit, where there are several farmhouses. You can eat firewood chicken, enjoy the flowers, take photos, and just walk around, mainly for leisure. 2. For family hikes, you can choose the 5KM loop, but it will probably be more than 5KM. ✔️It is advised that children over 5 years old should go, as some sections are slippery and shaky, and Morris was mostly using hands and feet. ✔️Bring enough snacks, download the track in advance, and check it often, or it's easy to go the wrong way. Remember not to follow the trail markers for off-road running. ✔️The cherry blossoms are always around on the overall route, and the view from the mountain ridge is very good, refreshing and delightful. On sunny days, be sure to protect yourself from the sun, as there are not many shelters, and there are also more mosquitoes. It is not recommended to go on rainy days. 3. For hardcore training, you can choose the small loop starting point to go up the mountain, then follow the ribbons of the off-road running. The overall climbing and running sections are good for physical fitness. It should be around 9KM. We followed the wrong markers, but the scenery was uniquely good. ‼️TIPS: 1. This place is currently quite niche, not many people. But there is still trash, so please practice no-trace outdoors and take all your trash with you. 2. Travel with others, as sometimes there is no signal 3. Please do not pick flowers and tea leaves at will
