We spent five days traveling from the Yi-dominated Daliang Mountains in southwestern Sichuan, passing through Leshan, to Daofu in the Tibetan region of Ganzi in northwestern Sichuan, and then returning to Chengdu via Xinduqiao. This is arguably the most unique loop of western Sichuan to date, offering diverse scenery and cultural experiences at a comfortable pace, traversing both wild and exquisite landscapes. It's hard to describe! 📆[Itinerary Guide] 📆 Itinerary: Day 1: Xichang - Meigu County, Daliangshan - Leshan Depart from Xichang Qingshan Airport at 11:00 AM. Have lunch in Meigu County. Check in at Fangju Designer B&B (Emeishan Scenic Area Branch) at 9:00 PM. Day 2: Leshan - Daofu County, Ganzi Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture Depart in the morning, first stop: Fuhu Temple, where we enjoyed a vegetarian meal. Second stop: Yepo Coffee. Depart at 2:00 PM for the ten-hour journey. Check in at Yuke Yinka Manor in Daofu at 12:30 PM. Day 3: Daofu - Kangding Xinduqiao Depart at noon, four hours. Check in at Kangding Black Barley Manor (Xinduqiao Branch) in the evening. Day 4: Xinduqiao Town - Chengdu Eight hours. 🚗Transportation Guide: South to North: Depart from Xichang Qingshan Airport, travel five hours to Meigu County. From Meigu County to Leshan, take National Highway 348, four hours. From Leshan, exit the highway at Luding and take National Highway G318. Change to Provincial Highway S211 through Tibetan Danba County, then take Rural Road Y002 towards Dangling. From there, take an unnamed road to reach Tibetan Daofu County. North to South: Depart from Daofu, take National Highway G350 to Xinduqiao Town. West to East: Depart from Xinduqiao, take National Highway 318, detour to Kangding Airport, take Provincial Highway S434 to Ya'an, and then on to Chengdu. 🌟Trip Highlights: Upon arrival in Meigu County, be sure to visit the Dafengding National Nature Reserve and experience the panoramic views of the plains at an altitude of 4,600 meters! Approaching the Leshan section of National Highway 348 (Figure 6), you'll find scenery reminiscent of the treacherous Shu Road, winding through cliffs. Parking is convenient at Fangju Designer B&B (Emeishan Scenic Area Branch) (Emeishan Scenic Area Branch) (Figures 7/8), located right next to the entrance of the Emeishan Scenic Area. Several teahouses are free for guests, offering a wide selection of high-quality teas. We recommend stopping by Fuhu Temple to pay homage to the Peacock King, one of the great protectors of Tibetan Buddhism (Figure 9). Enjoy a complimentary Sichuan-style vegetarian hot pot meal in the dining hall for lunch. Gaoqiaoli Hantian Yepo Coffee is a newly popular outdoor spot (10/11/12), offering a comfortable reading atmosphere and excellent coffee. Yuke Yinka Manor on the Yuke Grassland in Daofu County is a safe haven for late-night arrivals. The owner's brother is a lama, and they'll be waiting for guests in the living room. Even after a long journey, they can sit down and enjoy a few cups of steaming butter tea. A luxurious outdoor tea table is available for guests to use by the river near the manor (Figure 18). En route to Xinduqiao, the Moshi Park scenic area is worth a visit! The restaurant at Kangding Black Barley Manor (Figure 19) near Xinduqiao is a prime spot for tasting. The ambiance and cuisine are first-rate, making it a top choice for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. There's also a book bar next door with a wine list. From Xinduqiao to Chengdu, it's recommended to detour via Ganzi Kangding Airport (Figure 20). Stop at the observation deck above the airport to watch the planes take off and land, which is truly impressive. 💰Per capita consumption: 5,000-8,000 [○] Tips: [!] Trams are not suitable for this route. [!] On the way from Meigu to Leshan, we recommend staying overnight at the Lotus Mountain B&B in Mabian. [!] On the way from Leshan to Daofu, we recommend staying overnight at the Danba Yinling Tibetan B&B in Danba via Dangling. [!] Women should avoid driving from Dangling to Daofu at night! The road passes through pastures, where you'll encounter yak herds. Rain can cause flooding and overflow the small river valley, so experienced drivers are required to navigate carefully. The frequent fog makes driving between cliffs at night a real challenge. #SichuanWestern Self-DrivingTour #Self-DrivingTourGuide #RomanticTravelDestinationsInChina #NicheDiscovery #CtripReputationRank
🌟 Tracing the Land of Shu | From the Hometown of the Three Su to the Zen of Emei Embarking on this cultural journey through Emei, Meishan, Chengdu, and Leshan is like opening a three-dimensional collection of Bashu culture. Meishan, known as the "City of Poetry and Literature," boasts a millennial legacy embodied by the Three Su brothers. Leshan and Emei, on the other hand, cherish the dual gifts of Buddhist culture and natural beauty. The wild charm of Gaoqiao and the Buddhist chants of Fuhu Temple interweave to create a unique Zen space. 🏯 Cultural Heritage Deeply Hidden in Meizhou City The Three Su Shrine Museum, located south of Sha Gu Xing, is the former residence of Northern Song Dynasty literary giants Su Xun, Su Shi, and Su Zhe. Stepping into this quintessential Western Sichuan garden, you'll encounter precious relics such as the Su Residence's ancient well and the inkstone-washing pool. Even more captivating is a stroll through the Dongpo Impression Water Street in the evening, where lanterns illuminate the Song Dynasty-style buildings and a water curtain performance casts the artistic conception of "Water Melody" in light and shadow. While staying at the Xiyuan Hotel, I discovered that its courtyard design evokes the ingenious idea of "When will the bright moon appear?" Even the tea sets in the guest rooms are engraved with poems by Su Dongpo. 🌿 A Healing Time in Mount Emei A stay at the Lugu Hotel in Gaoqiaoli is truly a soothing journey. Wake up to the chirping of birds in the morning, and open the window to a view of the mist-shrouded mountains. I particularly enjoyed their customized "hot spring stargazing" experience: gaze up at the Milky Way from a private hot spring bath, while the waiter thoughtfully brings you Bitan Piaoxue tea. At Yepo Café, a five-minute walk away, sip a silky latte by the floor-to-ceiling windows, and behold the reflection of the century-old camphor tree outside. The morning bell at Fuhu Temple always rings at 7 a.m. Each statue in the Hall of Five Hundred Arhats features a different emoji. Be sure to pay homage to the rarely seen Maurya Vairocana, one of the three great protectors of Tibetan Buddhism. I especially recommend the vegetarian Sichuan-style stew served in the temple's dining hall during lunchtime – it's a truly delicious experience. 🌊 The Minjiang River nurtures a tranquility The Minjiang Wetland Park in Leshan holds hidden surprises. Stroll along the wooden boardwalk in the evening, and you'll often see egrets flitting over the reed marshes. The silhouette of a giant sleeping Buddha on the opposite bank looms in the twilight, a sight locals call "nature's platform for viewing the Buddha." Remember to bring bread crumbs to feed the red-billed gulls; these adorable wintering birds perform a unique aerial catching trick. From the scent of ink at the Three Su Shrine to the aroma of tea in Gaoqiaoli, the most captivating aspect of this route is the ability to experience culture with all five senses—feel the texture of Su-style flower arrangements at Xiyuan, smell the aroma of thousand-year-old camphor trees at Fuhu Temple, and savor the lingering sweetness of Emei snow buds at Yepo Coffee. Only then do you understand the saying, "A visit to Sichuan is a must for young people," for it's so easy to lose yourself in the poetic beauty of this land. #AncientTownsAndVillagesWorthVisiting#WhereToNightTour#PlacesOfFriends#TravelWithCtripReputationList#IVoteForChengdu @CtripReputationList @CommunityWelfare
