Self-driving in Western Sichuan! Step into the beautiful off-the-beaten-path village, Jiaju Tibetan Village

I'm back in Western Sichuan after two years, and I'm staying in Danba Tibetan Village, known as 'the most beautiful village in China' again. 'Jiaju' means a hundred households in Tibetan. This is also the settlement of the Jiarong Tibetans. The local residents I met are very simple and enthusiastic. There are many Tibetan-style buildings scattered on the mountain, which are very spectacular. Any random shot is a blockbuster. In 2005, it was rated as 'the most beautiful village in China' by National Geographic of China. This is also the Beauty Valley, known for its 'production' of beauties, with a unique Jiarong charm. It has a Qinghai-Tibet Plateau monsoon climate, 'four seasons on one mountain, different weather within ten miles'. It's not cold in winter. Tourist guide: ✔️Jiaju Tibetan Village: Buy a ticket to enter, you can drive in if you stay in the scenic area. There are hundreds of Jiarong Tibetan residences, scattered in the mountain hollows, very beautiful. ✔️Zhonglu Tibetan Village: There is a viewing platform suitable for taking photos and checking in. If you can't find it, you can ask the local residents. During the pear blossom season, you can see pear blossoms blooming all over the mountain. ✔️Suopo Tibetan Village: This is the place where the ancient watchtowers are most concentrated in the county, the site of the Eastern Women's Kingdom, and the only remaining thirteen-sided watchtower in the world is here. Danba cuisine: Baked bun, yak meat soup pot, beef quilt, Danba tripe, cordyceps clear soup chicken tofu... Danba customs: Experience the Jiarong New Year customs, Danba pot dance, Danba women's coming-of-age ceremony, you can also wear Danba ethnic costumes, really beautiful. Winter sunbathing leisure travel route: Chengdu - Luding - Kangding - Danba - Xiaojin - Chengdu
