This is not Norway, this is Baima Wanglang!

I canceled my flight to Norway because I found a real-life Norwegian winter forest right here in Mianyang. Snow-capped mountains 🏔️, forests 🌲, lakes 🌊, wooden cabins 🏡, little deer 🦌... Every scene here looks just like a movie set. Low altitude, not too high, beautiful and less crowded hidden gem. No need to travel all the way to Northern Europe to immerse yourself in the romance of ice and snow~ 📍 Address: Baima Wanglang Scenic Area, Mianyang City, Sichuan Province 🚗 Getting there: Self-driving (mountain roads require snow chains, the snowy scenery along the way is stunning) 🎫 Tickets: Adults 138 RMB/person | Seniors 70 RMB/person | Children 100 RMB/person ⏰ Winter park hours: 08:30-14:00 (No entry after 2 PM, don’t miss out!) DAY 1️⃣ Explore the ancient town, sleep with snow as your pillow ✅ Self-drive navigation to Pingwu County, visit "Bao'en Temple" in the afternoon Filming location for the game "Black Myth: Wukong," a Ming Dynasty ancient building hidden deep in the mountains, red walls reflecting the snow make for amazing shots ✅ Accommodation: Xingchenli Boutique Homestay (Doukou Qiang Ethnic Township, Pingwu County) A warm room to dispel the chill of the journey and recharge for the next day’s snow viewing DAY 2️⃣ Enter the icy secret realm, a winter date awaits 8:30 Depart from the homestay, 2-hour drive to Baima Wanglang Scenic Area 10:30 Buy tickets and enter, take the scenic shuttle bus for 40 minutes directly to "Ganhaizi" The same filming location where Li Ziqi plays piano in her videos! Frozen lake, endless snowy mountains, frost-covered forests—every shot is wallpaper-worthy, perfect for girls’ photos!!! 12:00 Check in at the primitive forest hiking trail 2-2.5 hours walking and photo-taking, snow weighs down the pine branches, the trail is covered with a thin layer of snow, only bird songs and wind rustling leaves can be heard, full of healing vibes 15:00 Descend and return, ending a perfect winter trip 💡 Travel Tips: 1. If you have enough time, plan for 3 days to slowly enjoy the tranquility of the snowy forest 2. The park only sells instant noodles and grilled sausages, remember to bring your own snacks and hot water 3. Riding tip: sit on the left window side going in, and on the right window side coming back, so you don’t miss any snowy views 4. The park’s ecology is excellent; keep an eye out the window during the ride—you might spot deer, squirrels, and other wildlife 5. Mountain weather changes quickly; dress in layers for easy warmth adjustment
