I thought Tagong Grassland was beautiful, until I visited Genie

When it comes to Western Sichuan, everyone's first thought is of natural landscapes like snow-capped mountains🏔, grasslands, forests, lakes🏞, etc. Genie is a stunning place that combines all these features. Especially in the summer, Genie is unbelievably beautiful❗️It's a place I've been to and want to visit again~ - Navigation📍: Genie Best time to visit🕐: Around July-August each year (July-August is the peak of summer, when little flowers🌷 bloom one after another on the slopes, filling the mountains with color and maximizing the visual impact❗️) Road conditions: Overall the roads are quite good, but some sections require caution. SUVs or off-road vehicles can travel without any pressure, but it is not recommended for sedans🚗 Recommended check-in spots: The Eye of Genie👁: A 50m diameter pond that looks like a human pupil, very noticeable on the wide meadow Xiàzé Tong Village: Ding Zhen's hometown, where you must check in at the log cabins, which are like walking into the movie 'Heidi' among the sea of flowers🌷, and it's very photogenic📷 Xinleng Ancient Temple: A Tibetan Buddhist monastery backed by the main peak of Genie🏔, with three treasures inside: a doe's antlers, a helmet from the Gesar era, and the Heart of Genie, as well as a conch shell Yuzi Xi: A beautiful spot for chasing sunsets and stargazing!
